Murray Goldberg (born October 1962) is a noted Canadian educational technologist and a faculty member in the Department of Computer Science at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.
Goldberg is best known for being the founder of the elearning companies WebCT, Brainify, Silicon Chalk, AssociCom, Marine Learning Systems and most recently SkillGrader.
[5][6] Goldberg found that the experience of building the courses for this experimentation was sufficiently time consuming and expensive that he decided to create a platform to enable the simple and rapid creation of web-based learning environments,[7][8] WebCT.
The software facilitated the recording of classroom presentations, student note taking, polling, file sharing, and other features.
Their product, MarineLMS, is a learning management system for training in the maritime industry, with BC Ferries as their first customer.
Early users include the Canadian Navy,[19] large cruise lines, ferry operators and first responders.
