Learning Management Systems (LMSs) are used to create, deliver, and manage blended and online learning, giving practical support for teachers and students through their multiple functions and features. With LMSs, it is possible to create, organize, and share learning content, such as instructional information and learning activities. LMSs also support communication through announcements, emails, assignment feedback, and discussion boards. Creating assignments and keeping track of students’ learning progress are functions available through LMSs. LMSs support instructional practices in online learning environments and enhance student learning.
