The integration and application of Information Communication Technology in language teaching has become more and more prevalent in the era of 4.0, which has brought about a lot of significant influences on students’ language learning. However, having a self-led online tool which is appropriate to one’s students’ backgrounds and is free and open-access in a school in a mountainous area in a developing country like Vietnam has not yet been so popular. In the present study, for the purpose of enhancing students’ learning, online grammar exercises for 10th graders at Thai Nguyen High School, Thai Nguyen province, Vietnam, were designed in a learning management system called Chamilo. The study investigated the benefits of the platform towards students’ grammar learning achievements by identifying the changes in students’ scores as well as sought evaluative feedback from teachers and students as the users of the tool. The research instruments included a grammar test in the pre-intervention and after-intervention combined with two questionnaires for eight teachers and twenty students at grade 10 and interviews with the focus group of 5 students.  The findings suggested a remarkable improvement in students’ post-test score and a significant relationship between the practice of online exercises and students’ grammar results. Furthermore, positive responses from the teachers and students on such use of the platform indicated that Chamilo could be used as learning tools to enhance students’ grammar learning.

The present research study was conducted in one of the private sector universities of Lahore city in Pakistan. This study has utilized a quantitative paradigm that included a single group pre-test post-test experimental design. The problem identified was a less developed English language grammar skill in the students and also how to teach English language successfully to the large classes i.e. consisting of 50 to 60 students. The main purpose was to develop some plans to facilitate the large classes. A single group quasi-experiment was conducted for four months (one semester) to find out whether the implementation of the Learning Management System (LMS) for the teaching of the English language is successful or not. The rationale of the study was to provide detailed lesson plans and analysis of how the teaching is done through the LMS in large English language classes like having 50 to 65 students per class. The results showed that LMS or the Learning Management System proved to be successful for teaching English to large classes as it saved time for the teachers and students both along with providing ample guidance and support. The present study is significant as it provides a guideline for other institutes on how they can also utilize this software effectively for teaching the English language.

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.

New pedagogical approaches are required to prepare future professionals. The educational model must be in consonance with the information and communication technologies. They help to improve knowledge dissemination and reduce space and time limitations between teachers and students. They should also motivate students and stimulate communication and collaboration among students, improving the learning process. Currently, the Institute of Exact and Applied Sciences of the Federal University of Ouro Preto (IEAS/UFOP) has no institutionalized tools of information and communication for teaching support. This allows the identification of some problems and difficulties on the educational process, such as absence of a centralized way to provide and access didactic resources, unavailability of a good communication tool between teachers and students, and lack of easy access to academic performance information for self evaluation. This chapter presents the authors' experience in choosing and evaluating a Learning Management System (LMS) to support classroom teaching at the IEAS. The authors investigate how the use of a LMS may improve teaching in the following aspects: (1) availability of didactic resources; (2) class planning and following up; (3) teacher-student communication; (4) monitoring of the academic performance of students during the course; (5) collaboration among students.

AbstrakHasil pengamatan perilaku yang dilakukan pada peserta pelatihan daring dapat dijadikan bahan evaluasi untuk penyelenggaraan pelatihan pada masa yang akan datang menjadi lebih optimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perilaku peserta, pengajar dan panita dalam proses pembelajaran dengan keseluruhan daring. Pendekatan penelitian adalah statistik deskriptif dengan menggunakan data logs report pada Learning Management System (LMS) Pusdiklat BMKG. Objek penelitian adalah 50 peserta pelatihan teknis big data yang berasal dari unit pelaksana teknis di BMKG, 13 pengajar dan 2 panitia. Pelatihan diselenggarakan di Pusat Pendidikan dan Pelatihan BMKG pada 28 Oktober sampai dengan 9 Desember 2019. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perilaku pelaku pelatihan memiliki aktivitas yang signifikan hanya pada momen-momen tertentu. Sistem LMS mencatat beberapa kejadian: 1) terjadi peningkatan aktivitas peserta, ketika mendekati tenggang waktu pengumpulan semua tugas yaitu pada hari senin dan pada saat pelaksanaan post-test; 2) terjadi peningkatan aktivitas pengajar ketika mendapat peringatan dari panitia untuk pemberian grading terhadap semua tugas-tugas yang dikumpulkan peserta; 3) terjadi peningkatan aktivitas panitia pada saat agenda pembelajaran dimulai dan ketika pelaksanakan post-test. Analysis of big data technical online training using Moodle logger dataThe results of behavioral observations conducted on online trainees can be used as evaluation material for the implementation of future training to be more optimal. This research aims to find out the behavior of participants, teachers, and organizers in the process of full online learning. The research approach is statistically descriptive by using data logs report on Learning Management System (LMS) Pusdiklat BMKG. The research object was 50 big data technical trainees from the technical implementation unit at BMKG, 13 teachers and 2 committees.

Virtual education is distance teaching in which teachers and students are in different places but can be connected to each other via the internet network. The virtual education system is divided into two, namely Learning Management System (LMS) and virtual classes. One of virtual education is video conferencing (vicon). A fully capable network is required to comply with Quality of Service (QoS) standards for real-time applications. This study analyzes the QoS of vicon features in LMS at the University of Nasional that is BigBlueButtonBN. Based on the QoS parameters obtained 25% throughput, 100% packet loss, 84.75% delay, 37.5% jitter and 58.5% MOS. Based on the bandwidth requirements of each parameter, the results are 61.2% or 27.9411MB. The MOS value for video 100 is 4, which results in very good images on this vicon.Keywords:BigblueButtonBN; Learning Management System; Mean Opinion Score; Quality of Service; Video Conference

Technology in Education has been widely used due to several reasons. Millennial students’ characteristic, which is technology savvy, is one of them. The Covid- 19 pandemic has also been leading us to use technology in managing the classroom massively. This study aims to identify teachers and students’ Net Promoter Score (NPS) on the Cambridge Learning Management System (CLMS). Mixed methods and an online survey using google platforms were used to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. Nine English lecturers and 69 university students who had used CLMS for teaching and learning English level B1 (CEFR) participated. The results show that the lecturers and students’ NPS are 11 and 13, respectively. They imply that CLMS is considered good, resulting in the possibility for the users to reuse the LMS in the future.  However, there is still room for improvement. Fixing technical problems is highly recommended to enhance the possibility for the user to use the installed LMS. Providing more training for teachers is also suggested.
