An Overview of the Learning Management System & A Feasibility Study on the Internal Product Implementation of Uzity Software at CMS Kannur University Campus

Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 7

Abstract

The ‘business’ of education management is a major issue for governments and its citizens in countries the world over. As societies evolve, the structures and influences which shape educational practices also evolve. Over the last two decades the Indian Ministry of Education (MOE) has directed Colleges to move towards a digital age with frameworks and strategies to produce students (and therefore citizens) who are 21st century ready and can achieve their full potential in this digital age (MOE,2006). Having moved globally from the industrial age (which our current education system was built on), into a digital or knowledge based age requires, some say, “a paradigm shift in educational thinking”. For Colleges in India, this directive has meant that they are required to provide current technologies and expert teaching staff in environments built for different practices. Universities have made a considerable investment in the use of Learning Management Systems (LMSs) to facilitate their teaching learning processes; however these systems are not used by the faculty members to their fullest capabilities. To address this issue, this study investigated factors that affect faculty members’ LMSs usage behavior, focusing on user related variables and their pivotal role in determining faculty attitudes toward LMSs. This research project has evolved out of a desire to understand what issues exist for teachers, students and administrators of Centre for Management Studies, Mangattuparamba Campus Kannur University, for implementing a LMS. By researching ,this project aims at measuring the effectiveness of Learning Management System and identify a set of guidelines which may be used to assist college in effective LMS selection and implementation in the future.
