Benefits of LMS for IUM Students and Faculty

LMS benefits are:

• Improved Course Management and Delivery
• Flexible Learning Opportunities
• Enhanced Communication and Collaboration

1. Organizes e-learning content in one location.
Instead of having your e-learning content spread out over different hard drives and devices, you can store all of your e-learning materials in one location. This reduces the risk of losing important data and makes it easier to create your e-learning course. Every member of your e-learning team can also access the information if you’re using a cloud-based learning management system, thanks to the fact that it’s all stored on the remote server. This makes Learning Management Systems a natural fit for online collaboration.

2. Provides unlimited access to e-learning materials.
Once you upload your e-learning course materials onto the LMS and publish them, your audience has unlimited access to the information they need. Even those who are on the go can login to the e-learning platform via their smartphones and tablets, so that they don’t have to wait until their next online training session to develop skills and perfect work-related tasks. This is one of the main reasons why a LMS is essential for global audiences in different time zones.

3. Easily tracks learner progress and performance.
The best Learning Management System gives you the ability to keep track of learner progress and ensure that they are meeting their performance milestones. For instance, if an online learner is not able to successfully complete an e-learning scenario, you can offer them supplemental resources to improve their performance or learning behaviors. Most Learning Management Systems feature reporting and analytics tools that also allow you to pinpoint areas of your e-learning course that may be lacking, as well as where it excels. If you discover that many of your online learners are struggling throughout a specific online lesson, for example, you can assess the e-learning content and make modifications if necessary.
