In spite of this difficulty, synchronous discussions have certain benefits that could help participants feel a stronger sense of social interaction. Therefore, designing a feature that creates longer discussion formats should be considered as a viable option to provide users to help them participate in discussions.
A better functioning synchronous discussion feature design should decrease the difficulties in participating in synchronous discussions. The interaction features of learning management systems need to include more interactive approaches. Evaluating Students Category The most commonly used LMS tools in the evaluation and assessment category are a quiz generator, which helps instructors create tests and allows students to submit the test via the drop box function.
In addition, the drop box function is easy to use for the student and easy to access for the instructor. A good quiz generator should include a flexible approach to create various evaluation methods. Fritz also emphasized the importance of interaction in the evaluation process which would allow the learner to check and monitor their academic activities, and improve student-learning performance.
In contrast, simply delivering a grade without the ability to interact with the student would fail to enhance student participation, as well as their learning experience. Evaluating Courses and Instructors Category In the evaluating course and instructor category, the learning management systems allow students to evaluate both the course and the instructor at the end of the semester.
Developing and designing a new system needs to take this into consideration and offer alternatives which universities might be quicker to adopt. The implementation of a LMS including a completed survey system would enable universities to save money in both maintenance and developing fees.
This feature is designed to help instructors transmit content. These tools could enhance various teaching presentations.
Therefore, learning management systems should have a highly flexible and adaptable CBI that improves the online learning experience. Conclusions The development and design framework of a learning management system is an important foundation of learning performance and instructional experience.
In addition, the result of this study clearly supports the notion that human effect and cross-cultural factors have a significant influence between the development and design of LMS.
In this review of learning management systems, much remains to be done, but we anticipate that the study will generate crucial findings in the field of LMS research. Future studies would be encouraged to test and improve upon the LMS model.
We intend to continue pursuing this line of investigation in a series of studies and investigate how instructors and learners successfully utilize more LMS tools to enhance their performance. With the development of LMS, further research should aid LMS developers in creating a finalized LMS model so that instructors and students can have access to the most effective ways to use these technologies to improve the teaching and learning experience in higher education.
