Abstract

Learning Management Systems (LMS) include a type of software and web applications that facilitate the online delivery of course materials, student tracking, and work presentation by students. An LMS focuses on the creation of course contents through a learning content management system (LCMS) and on the management of those contents. LMS provides tools for students to achieve assigned tasks and interact in groups or between students through the forums that enrich the construction of knowledge through communication and discussions. Open Educational Resources (OER) are associated with an open license that allows teachers to adapt and redistribute contents without any restrictions or with limited restrictions. In general terms, LMS have allowed learning analytics, adaptive learning, and dynamic social exchanges. Finally, functionality can be increased through the installation or implementation of add-ons and importing OER from LCMS.
