Learning Management

The use of strategy takes an important role in language learning. The use of Learning Management System software (LMSs) in the EFL classroom enables the students to get their target language. LMSs has a feature that can enhance communication between student to student and between lecturer and students. This study generally explores students’ perspectives toward the use of LMSs as a language learning strategy. This qualitative research was conducted in Universities in Lampung Province, Indonesia. The subjects were 33 undergraduate students in the English Education study program, Faculty of Arts and Education. The data used were questionnaires and interviews. The findings show that the participants give positive feedback toward their experiences in using LMSs. By using LMSs, admitted that LMSs was given improvement to their speaking, reading, listening, and writing skill. However, some students revealed that there were some technical problems founds when they use LMSs, such as bad gateway connection. Nevertheless, learning a language using LMSs as the strategy helps the students to have self-learning experiences.

Integration Of Learning

The rapid development of information and communication technologies has led to the use of new and digital technologies in education which involves combinations of text, graphics, audio, video, animations and other eLearning resources such as authoring tools, Learning Management System (LMS), Mobile learning and others. Arguably, using LMS leaves much to be desired. The inherent problem here is that the future of extensive adoption of ICT via LMS to enhance and promote classroom interaction in Open and Distance Learning (ODL) is bleak. This is worrisome given that the country is lagging far behind in the innovative use of this web 2.0 technology to impart knowledge. Further, the low-level application of LMS in instruction connotes the loss of inherent advantages in its adoption. Also, the online setting which makes students less nervous and interactive, sharing of ideas and viewpoints; and a host of other benefit will be lost. While evidence has shown that LMS is not a new phenomenon, the use of LMS in ODL is still at its infancy, particularly in Nigeria. Research in this area is rare. A quick search on prominent research databases could testify that. It is on this thrust that this study investigates University of Ibadan undergraduate students’ perceived roles and readiness towards integration of learning management system into teaching and learning.

In recent years, there has been a growing increase in using Learning Management System (LMS) by universities. However, its utilization by students is limited in Malaysia. The main purpose of the present study is to develop and test a model that predicts LMS utilization by Malaysian higher education students. Based on the Technology Acceptance Model, the study investigated the relationships among six constructs (system interactivity, technical support, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, behavioral intention to use and LMS use) through structural equation modelling. The participants were 216 undergraduate students from a local university in Malaysia. The result of the study revealed that system interactivity had a significant effect on perceived usefulness, but not on perceived ease of use; technical support had a significant effect on perceived ease of use, but not on perceived usefulness.

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.

Social networking sites (SNSs) are becoming popular day by day in academia as well as in business organizations around the world. Facebook as the largest and fastest networking sites, is one of the important SNSs that can play an important role in different academic disciplines. The aim of this study is to investigate the use of SNSs by the undergraduate students of International Islamic University of Malaysia (IIUM). The specific objectives are: (i) to explore the frequency of using SNSs by the undergraduates; (ii) to identify the purpose of using SNSs; (iii) to examine the perceptions of undergraduates for using SNSs as an academic tool; and (iv) finally, to propose Facebook group as a learning management system (LMS) of IIUM. A structured survey questionnaire was distributed among 500 undergraduate students of IIUM and 351 responses were received. The results report that Facebook and Google+ are preferred SNSs. Sharing information with friends, getting connected with people for different level, making new friends, and passing time are the main reasons for using SNSs. This study also proposes a six-step procedure for using Facebook group as a LMS.
