Abstract Traditional Learning Management Systems are installed on a single server where learning materials and user data are kept. To increase its performance, the Learning Management System can be installed on multiple servers; learning materials and user data could be distributed across these servers obtaining a Distributed Learning Management System. In this paper is proposed the prototype of a recommendation system based on association rules for Distributed Learning Management System. Information from LMS databases is analyzed using distributed data mining algorithms in order to extract the association rules. Then the extracted rules are used as inference rules to provide personalized recommendations. The quality of provided recommendations is improved because the rules used to make the inferences are more accurate, since these rules aggregate knowledge from all e-Learning systems included in Distributed Learning Management System.

In order to increase the utilization of learning resources and produce interchangeable components, a novel communication model is proposed. The model utilizes SCORM to standardize the learning contents and learning management systems and specify the behaviors of the learning contents independent of the learning management system used. At the same time, the model utilizes SOAP to increase interoperability within the wide range of programs and environments. By doing this, different learning groupwares and learning management systems can be integrated.

 Actualmente existen gran variedad de Sistemas de Gestión de Aprendizaje - Learning Management System (LMS) al servicio de todos los niveles educativos y las áreas académicas. Esta diversidad origina un problema de semántica en el conocimiento haciéndolo disperso e inexacto debido a que cada LMS maneja sus propios formatos, arquitecturas y especificaciones. Esto dificulta la interoperabilidad de la información entre diferentes plataformas afectando principalmente a los estudiantes. En el artículo se describe la propuesta de un modelo de interoperabilidad semántica para resolver las necesidades de intercambio de información caracterizadas de los LMS, a partir de las propuestas existentes de solución en el campo de las especificaciones de e-learning, los servicios Web y las ontologías en general.

At present, supporting e-learning with interactive virtual campuses is a future goal in education. Models that measure the levels of acceptance, performance, and academic efficiency have been recently developed. In light of the above, we carried out a study to evaluate a model for which architecture design, configuration, metadata, and statistical coefficients were obtained using four Learning Management Systems (LMSs). That allowed us to determine reliability, accuracy, and correlation, using and integrating the factors that other researchers have previously used, only using isolated models, such as Anxiety–Innovation (AI), Utility and Use (UU), Tools Learning (TL), System Factors (SF), Access Strategies (AS), Virtual Library (VL), and Mobile Use (MU). The research was conducted over one year in nine groups. The results from an LMS Classroom, architecturally and configuration-wise, had the highest level of performance, with an average of 73% when evaluated using statistical coefficients. The LMS Classroom had a good acceptance and a greater impact: SF, 82%, AI, 80%, and VL, 43%, while out of the seven factors, those with the most significant impact on academic efficiency were TL, 80%, VL, 82%, and MU, 85%.

Currently, there are many online learning systems, which support online learning management processes. However, it is rather hard to choose an e-learning management system on your own. The paper considers a comprehensive assessment method based on the use of the developed comparison algorithm and the algorithm for the optimal choice of complex e-learning management systems according to the functional completeness criterion. The study shows to what extent the e-learning management systems selected for comparison have similarities or differences in terms of functional completeness. The author analyzed whether they contain the most typical e-learning systems and what additional functions each of the compared systems has. The paper shows how it is possible to assess how the functional completeness of a particular system meets the user’s requirements. The developed comparison algorithm allows grouping the features of the considered complex e-learning management systems and highlighting the most significant functions or groups of functions. The study determined the degree of absorption of one complex system over another. The author carried out the ranking of the considered e-learning management systems according to the functional completeness criterion. To identify the system that is superior to the others and to determine the presence of the unique functions, the author constructed the graphs of similarity, absorption, and superiority of the considered systems with varying threshold values. This method allows evaluating and selecting such e-learning management systems that best meet the software requirements and, based on the recommendations received, choosing the most appropriate version of the online-learning management system, taking into account the user’s preferences.

Digital learning management systems (DLMSs) are an important and necessary educational tool for learning activities. Universities are using the Digital LMS tools that are unique to their environment. Different universities have different DLMS tools that are software driven and allow the users (management, instructors, and students) to use them for regular tasks. This research discusses the qualitative data collected using a case study methodology. In this research, a case study design was selected for the qualitative methodology and semi-structured interviews were employed as the data collection method. This case study is based on a deanship of a university implementing a digital learning management system in the country of Jordan. The research provides an analysis of the interviews to gain insights into instructors' perspectives regarding the factors influencing the implementation of the digital learning management system in a higher education sector.

This paper examines theoretical, pedagogical, and technological differences between two technologies that have been used in undergraduate interprofessional health sciences at the University of Toronto. One, a learning management system, WebCT 2.0, supports online coursework. The other, a Knowledge Building environment, Knowledge Forum 2.0, supports the collaborative work of knowledge-creating communities. Seventy students from six health science programs (Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Pharmacy and Physical Therapy) participated online in a 5-day initiative to advance understanding of core principles and professional roles in pain assessment and management. Knowledge Forum functioned well as a learning management system but to preserve comparability between the two technologies its full resources were not brought into play. In this paper we examine three distinctive affordances of Knowledge Forum that have implications for health sciences education: (1) supports for Knowledge Building discourse as distinct from standard threaded discourse; (2) integration of sociocognitive functions as distinct from an assortment of separate tools; and (3) resources for multidimensional social and cognitive assessment that go beyond common participation indicators and instructor-designed quizzes and analyses. We argue that these design characteristics have the potential to open educational pathways that traditional learning management systems leave closed.

Learning management system (LMS) is usually used in higher education system. It has become compulsory to help the end users (instructors, students, and administrators) in their daily use, and learning analytics presents an auspicious approach. This chapter aims to investigate the acceptance of analytics and use of an LMS at Jordanian universities. It also focuses on the factors influencing acceptance of analytics in LMS at Jordanian universities. Therefore, the chapter presents a new model for acceptance of analytics in learning management systems at Jordanian universities called Jordanian Learning Management System (JLMS). This chapter is based on the most recent and related literature explaining various scenarios where LMSs address learning issues in the digital environment in a way that was not possible in the previous confines of print logic.
