A Qualitative Research on Competency- Based Learning Management System and Its Effectiveness

This study aimed to investigate the use of the Learning Management System (LMS) to teach English Grammar subject in online learning during a covid-19 outbreak. This study was descriptive qualitative research with second-semester students as the subjects of the study. They were students from the English department taking Structure 2 as the compulsory subject. The data were collected by conducting a survey to 71 students who were purposely selected to know the optimization of using LMS in teaching English Grammar during the covid -19 outbreak. The questionnaire was used to do a survey. The results show that the materials uploaded in the LMS are useful to help students understand English Grammar, especially for the topic taught in the second semester. Furthermore, the use of quiz features in LMS can motivate them to learn since they can know the results and the correct answer directly from the LMS. It also can increase students' confidence when doing the same test. However, it was found that the use of LMS cannot replace the direct explanation method from the teacher which is still stated as an effective way of teaching English Grammar subjects.

The Government

To foster continuous learning in governance, it is imperative to use technology in such a way that learning and knowledge exchange becomes a normal engagement without external interventions (http://digitalindia.gov.in/newsletter/2016_july/index.php). Web- or computer-based learning is easy, anytime and anywhere. It has in fact become a well-established, diversely applicable practice through a software application, known as learning management system (LMS). The LMS designed for e-governance under Digital India initiative is unique and one of a kind; it takes forward the vision of competency-based learning and is a tool to deliver right knowledge and skills to right personnel. LMS deployed by National e-Governance Division serves as a tool for learning and training the government officials and other stakeholders involved in planning, developing, implementing, monitoring, and sustaining governance in Government of India. This chapter broadly discusses the significant facets of the LMS like its prominent features and framework, key benefits, services rendered, and the outcomes and impact as a consequence of its structured implementation.

Resumo: Pesquisadores encontram dificuldades para desenvolver estudos utilizando o método da Grounded Theory (GT). Este artigo traz o percurso metodológico da operacionalização de uma GT. A investigação que proporcionou este relato buscou esclarecer quais são e como atuam os fatores que influenciam a utilização do Learning Management System na gestão da Educação a Distância, em uma universidade, a partir da experiência dos seus gestores. A pesquisa adotou a corrente Straussiana: o problema foi explicitamente definido e foram desenvolvidas a codificação aberta, a axial e a seletiva, com dados coletados a partir de entrevistas semiestruturadas e documentos. A principal contribuição deste artigo é apresentar os procedimentos operacionais para a construção de uma GT.Palavras-chave: Grounded theory; Método; Pesquisa qualitativa; Procedimentos operacionais. Grounded Theory operationalization: the methodological routeAbstract: Researchers has been found difficult to develop studies using the Grounded Theory (GT) method. This article presents the methodological route about an operationalization of a GT. The research that provided this description sought to clarify what are and how they act the factors that influence the use of the Learning Management System in the management of Distance Education in a university, based on the experience of its managers. The research adopted the Straussian current: the problem was explicitly defined and open, axial and selective coding were developed, with data collected from documents and semi-structured interviews. The main contribution of this article is to present the operational procedures for the construction of a GT.Keywords: Grounded Theory; Method; Qualitative Research; Operational procedures.

Teacher Centered

Educators are being encouraged to shift their instructional paradigm from teacher-centered to learner-centered through the use of technology. For online courses, legacy learning management products originally designed to sup-port and deliver teacher-centered instruction may represent a constraint to implementing the learner-centered paradigm. Yet, replacement of these systems presents a formidable hurdle to educators wishing to initiate learner-centered on-line courses. This hurdle could be lowered significantly by a transitional approach that allows learner-centered strategies to be delivered within the framework of existing learning management systems. This paper describes our efforts to prototype such a transitional approach for an online statistics course. Pedagogical and technological objectives were successfully achieved by combining the technologies of the Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM), a legacy learning management system, and a stand-alone course authoring tool to deliver an example course demonstrating adaptive, competency-based student progress instruction that personalizes one’s learning path with topic-contingent assessment feedback.
