Modeling a New Smart Learning Management System Based on the EML

The context of this work is that of designing an IMS-LD model for a new smart LMS. The work is specifically in the field or seeking to promote using information technology from a distance. The approach is to first think about the conditions for creating a real new smart LMS between learners and designing the IT environment that supports this LMS. In this chapter, the authors try to adapt the IMS-LD model with a new smart LMS based on traditional pedagogy, behaviorism, cognitivism, and social constructivism. This adaptation will go through three stages: first, the development of an LMS model; second, the study of the correspondence between the developed model and the IMS-LD model; finally, their transformation to the IMS-LD model.

The problems of most LMSs are first of all of a pedagogical nature and then of a technical one. Studying these interrelated problems provides a useful conceptual reference that enables us to design a new model for a more relevant solution. In this chapter, a new conceptual model of an LMS is presented. The model, which stems from a methodological and systemic approach, is based on the hybridization between four learning theories, namely the traditional pedagogy, behaviorism, cognitivism, and social constructivism. The authors present at first each of these learning theories by discussing both their advantages and limits. The main principles of these learning theories and the technical functionalities of the proposed LMS that result from the hybridization of these principles are outlined. They finally discuss the implications of the new conceptual model for how to design and develop a new LMS that fits the needs of their final users, in particular learners.

<strong>This work is mainly based on designing an IMS-LD model for self-management space for a new LMS. Our work is first to think about the conditions for creating a real LMS between learners and teachers. we try to adapt the IMS-LD model with a self-management model based on the hybridization between four learning theories as to the basis for teaching this LMS, namely traditional pedagogy, behaviorism, cognitivism, and social constructivism. These pedagogies have already proven themselves, mainly in classroom learning situations.</strong>


The context of this work is that of designing an IMS-LD metamodel of an LMS. The approach is to first think about the conditions for creating an LMS between learners and designing the IT environment that supports this system. In this chapter, the authors try to adapt the IMS-LD model with a metamodel for LMS based on the hybridization between learning theories. This adaptation will go through three stages: first, the development of the meta-model of LMS; second, the study of the correspondence between the developed meta-model and IMS-LD model; and finally, their transformation to IMS-LD meta-model.

The context of this work is that of prototyping a disciplinary information space for a new LMS. The work is specifically in the field or seeking to promote, using information technology from a distance, a collective knowledge construction. The approach is to first think about the conditions for creating a real LMS between learners and designing the IT environment that supports this LMS. The authors chose to base on the hybridization between four learning theories as a basis for teaching this LMS, namely the traditional pedagogy, behaviorism, cognitivism, and social constructivism. These pedagogies have already proven themselves, mostly in learning situations in the classroom. The LMS consists of different activity spaces for teaching and learning activities. The authors limit themselves in this work to the prototyping of disciplinary information space for a new smart LMS based on IMS-LD, the NoSQL, MongoDB database, and the Symfony framework.

The advancement of information technology has changed the education landscape. The process of teaching is no longer the same. Information technology has made e-learning possible and available on a large scale. The main component of an e-learning is a learning management system (LMS). LMS has been widely used and are accessible through the Internet. By connected and accessed to the Internet, LMS are exposed to various threats. Proper understanding of these threats combined with strategy and best practices countermeasures will ensure a safe learning environment. Therefore this study will look into the information security aspect of LMS. There are two main purpose of this study. First, this study provides a review of information security in e-learning environments and explains the important of information security. Confidentiality, integrity and availability are considered to be the primary pillars of information security. In addition to these pillars, the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium introduced a common body of knowledge (CBK) comprised of ten domains relating to specific information security topics. These domains are the foundation of security practices for those involved in information security. In this article, each of these is explained within an e-learning context. It is recommended that institutions employing e-learning adhere to these domains. By applying the principles and practices associated with each domain, e-learning institutions should be able to provide an e-learning system with high confidentiality, integrity and availability. The second purpose of this study is to understand student perception of an information security perspective of an e-learning management system. To achieve this purpose, a survey was conducted targeted at undergraduate students in a distance learning program. 497 students responded to a survey questionnaires. Apart from demographics information, the survey asked the respondent to rate six statements related to how they perceived security of the learning management system which they are currently using. All six statements are rated using a five point Likert scale anchored at 1 (Not at all) to 5 (Very much). Frequencies analysis was conducted to show the profile of the respondent. Overall, respondent has strong positive perceptions towards security of their LMS. This study provides an overall picture of information security elements of a learning management system. It can serve as an introduction which help LMS administrator to understand the issues and possibilities related to the safety of LMS.
