WHERE’S THE “LEARNING MANAGEMENT” IN AN LMS?
Esther TiessenKwantlen Polytechnic University
Where’s the “Learning Management” in an LMS?
Why I think Learning Management Systems should be called Teaching Management Systems
So what? Why I think we need Learning Management
Systems, not just Teaching Management Systems
What do you think a Learning Management System should look like and do? (this is the interactive part)
What do we do now?
Teaching Management Systems
What LMS features support learning and the management of learning?
Typical Features of LMS (ala Wikipedia)
Course Management, e.g. lists of courses, registration, credit information and syllabus, pre-requisites
Teaching Materials, i.e. courseware Self-assessment quizzes Lessons tools: Authoring for contents (structured XML or HTML) and
quizzing/testing (e.g. Java Script generators) or alternatively ability to import standard IMS or SCORM packages developed with an external tool (e.g. Dreamweaver).
Asynchronous Communication: email, forums Synchronous Communication: chat, whiteboard, teleconferencing, Student tools: Home page, self tests, bookmarks, progress
tracking, .... Student Management Tools: progress tracking, on-line grading
(assessment), .... Learner feedback: course evaluation surveys, test evaluation surveys
etc.

“Learning projects that people undertake on their own initiative, without any formal instructional structures or support”
