    Blackboard Inc. currently refers to their


    Blackboard Learn platform as an LMS (
    Blackboard Inc., 2013). At this time,
    LMS represents the ubiquitous term for
    a product containing attributes of both
    a LMS and a LCMS, whether for CMS or
    LMS use.

    COURSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (CMS)

    Definition - What doesCourse


    Management System (CMS)mean?
    A course management system is a set of
    tools that enables the instructor to
    create online course content and post it
    on the Web without having to handle
    HTML or other programming languages.

    Traditionally a course management system (CMS) is


    defined as an Internet-based software that creates and
    distributes course content, manages student
    enrollment and tracks student performance. In this way,
    the CMS enables instructors to extend the classroom
    beyond its traditional boundaries of time and space.
    With the advent of digital libraries and Web 2.0
    technologies, the term CMS is being replaced by
    Learning Management System or LMS. This term extends
    the previous CMS concept to include tools that allow
    easy access to digital resources and enable a wide range
    of collaboration activities.

    Course management systems have


    become an integral part of the higher
    education system.
    They make teaching and course
    management easier by providing a
    framework and set of tools for instructors.
    The administrative aspects of such
    systems may include class rosters and the
    ability to record students' grades.

    With respect to the teaching aspects,


    however, it could include learning objects,
    class exercises, quizzes and tests. The
    CMS may also include tools for real-time
    chat, or asynchronous bulletin board type
    communications. The CMS tool also
    focuses on all aspects of teaching,
    learning and teacher-student interaction.

    Some of the major players in the CMS


    field include WebCT and Blackboard.
    Some U.S institutions have developed
    open source projects such as
    CourseWorks, CHEF and Stellar. Some
    colleges also develop their own smallscale course management systems.

    What is the difference between a


    course management system and a
    learning management system (LMS)?
    Which one do you use and when? The
    difference is subtle between these two
    options, but knowing the difference will
    better enable an organization to levelset their continued learning needs.

    First, the term course management


    system may not be familiar to most,
    and it is often used in the same respect
    as a learning management system.
    However, a course management
    system (although quite similar) implies
    something slightly different than a
    traditional LMS.
