Reasons For Use

The integration of learning management systems into an educational context can prepare students to cope with the current information society, as well as enhance pedagogical practices and knowledge transmission. In order to realize these potential benefits, it is important to understand lecturers' reasons for use and non-use of LMS. This chapter argues that when introducing digital technologies into education in developing economies, contextual issues need to be taken into account, as users have to grapple with issues that may prevent use such as low technical literacy, poor technical support, and limited internet access. For education to be truly inclusive in developing economies, these contextual issues need to be addressed so that students from such contexts are able to reap the same benefits of technology as their contemporaries worldwide, such as improved education in terms of content, and improving the future potential of students in the workplace, with its ever-increasing reliance on technical skills and global connection to the digital economy.

Learning Management

Learning management systems are routinely used for presenting, solving and grading exercises with large classes. However, teachers are constrained to use questions with pre-defined answers, such as multiple-choice, to automatically correct the exercises of their students. Complex exercises cannot be evaluated automatically by the LMS and require the coordination of a set of heterogeneous systems. For instance, programming exercises require a specialized exercise resolution environment and automatic evaluation features, each provided by a different type of system. In this paper, the authors discuss an approach for the coordination of a network of eLearning systems supporting the resolution of exercises. The proposed approach is based on a pivot component embedded in the LMS and has two main roles: 1) provide an exercise resolution environment, and 2) coordinate communication between the LMS and other systems, exposing their functions as web services. The integration of the pivot component in the LMS relies on Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI). This paper presents an architecture to coordinate a network of eLearning systems and validate the proposed approach by creating such a network integrated with LMS from two different vendors.

Development And Validation

The rapid and relatively compulsory integration of learning management systems (LMS) in educational settings has triggered the everchanging needs once again to assess the potential negative outcomes of online learning environments amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This study presents the rationale for developing an instrument for doing such an assessment, and the research demonstrates evidence of reliability and validity qualifications in assessing the fatigue resulting from the excessive online learning experience in higher education. The instrument consists of 28 items and seven factors. The data were collected via learning management systems from a sample of 884 online learning experienced students in higher education. Results of factor analyses revealed that the scale demonstrated no indication of deficiency in reliability or validity when evaluating the fatigue levels resulting from the excessive online learning experience. Consequently, the scale could be used to assess and improve the fatigue levels of individuals who experienced excessive online learning in higher education.

The systems aimed for manipulating large number of courses and students are called Learning Management Systems (LMS). A LMS can have excellent performance implemented through advanced Web technologies but it is often accompanied by a poor or rarely used repository of institution?s educational content. It has still remained. Still remains a problem how to allow users of a LMS to easily modify and integrate the content from federated e-learning repositories into their courses. This article presents an analysis of present repository frameworks and projects. FEDORA (Flexible Extensible Digital Repository Object Architecture) framework is explained as an alternative repository solution. A pilot application has been developed to demonstrate the interaction between a LMS and its repository.
