LEARNING MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
E-LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
At present, e-learning platforms are
organized into three fundamental macro components:
v Learning Management System (LMS)
v Learning
Content Management System (LCMS)
v Set
of Tools for distributing training contents and for providing interaction.
The LMS integrates all the aspects for
managing online teaching activities. The LCMS offers services that allow to
their creation, importation and exportation.
The set of tools represents all
the services that manage teaching processes and interactions among users. A
LCMS includes all the functions enabling creation, description, importation or
exportation of content as well as their re-use and sharing. Contents are
generally organized into independent containers, called learning objects, able
to satisfy one or more didactic goals.
LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A learning management system (LMS) is a
software application or Web-based technology used to plan, implement and assess
a specific learning process.
Typically a LMS provides an instructor with a way to create and deliver
content, monitor student participation and assess student performance. A LMS
may also provide students with the ability to use interactive features such as
threaded discussion, video conferencing and discussion forums. The Advanced
Distance Learning group, sponsored by the United States Department of Defense,
has created a set of specifications called Shareable Content Object Reference
Model(SCORM) to encourage the standardization of LMS.
The learning management system (LMS) embraces
all the services for managing online teaching activities. A LMS must offers
services able to evaluate and report the acquired skills storing the training
path followed by them. A LMS should give the teacher the possibility of
verifying the right formulation of the various lessons and suggesting changes
in the learning path. Therefore, the functionalities of a LMS integrated within
a distance learning platform can be so synthesized:
Ø Student
management
Ø Course
management
Ø Student
skill assessment
Ø Student
activity monitoring and tracking
Ø Activity
reporting
STUDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A student management system integrated within
a LMS must manage a database containing standardized description of student
data so as to better identify the user and his characteristics. This type of
description is generally based on dialects of the XML (Extensible Markup
Language), an element that guarantees data portability. An LMS must implement a
functionality that adds a significant value to the distance learning process.
This functionality is that enabling the student to consult, at anytime, results
he has reached and, consequently, to monitor his/her preparation level.
COURSE MANAGEMENT
As or course management, an LMS can generally
manage self-placed, asynchronous instructor-led and synchronous instructor-led
course. Self-placed courses are usually asynchronous, and give much freedom to
the student who accesses a course index. The LMS manages these courses starting
from their creation. Asynchronous courses are run by an instructor, but they do
not foresee interactive moments between students and instructor. Their design
foresees delivery of strongly multi-media oriented contents. Synchronous
courses generally make use of collaborative learning, that is of all the tools
that allow to create interactions in real time between students and instructor.
