Learning Management System (LMS) for Enhanced Learning
Purpose: A Learning Management System (LMS) is a digital platform designed to manage, deliver, and track learning experiences. It centralizes course materials, assessments, communication tools, and often incorporates features for grading and reporting.
Benefits: LMS platforms streamline learning by providing a centralized hub for resources, enabling easy access to content, assessments, and discussions. They facilitate personalized learning, allowing learners to progress at their own pace and often include analytics for tracking progress.
Flipped Learning: Flipped Learning reverses the traditional classroom model. Students engage with learning materials (videos, readings, etc.) independently before class, while in-class time is dedicated to discussions, activities, and applying concepts through problem-solving. This approach allows for more interactive and personalized classroom experiences. Students can explore content at their own pace and use class time for deeper understanding, collaboration, and hands-on learning under the guidance of the teacher.
Integration with LMS: The Institute has adopted a novel LMS platform, MKCL LearnLive that can facilitate Flipped Learning by hosting pre-class materials, quizzes, or discussions, allowing students to access and engage with content before in-person sessions. Combining LMS with Flipped Learning can provide a comprehensive educational experience. The LMS serves as a repository for resources, while Flipped Learning optimizes classroom time for active learning and application. Overall, the use of an LMS supports the implementation of Flipped Learning by providing a platform to organize and deliver pre-class materials and resources, making it easier for both educators and learners to engage with the flipped classroom model.
