  • A Review of Distance Learning and Learning Management Systems
    Chapter 1 A Review of Distance Learning and Learning Management Systems Mümine Kaya Keleş and Selma Ayşe Özel Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/65222 Abstract In recent years, rapid developments in technology and the web have led to many changes in education. One of the most important changes in education is in the form of distance learning. Distance learning, which is used to define education where educators and learners are physically separated, is not a new concept; however, emerging technologies and the web allow web‐based distance learning and therefore increase its popularity. As a result of these developments, many universities have started to use web‐based distance learning systems to provide flexible education that is independent of time and place. In this chapter, we review all popular, widely used, and well‐known learning management systems and include detailed comparison of some of these systems to allow institutions to choose the right system for their distance education activities. Keywords: distance learning, literature review, educational research, learning manage- ment systems, Moodle 1. Introduction Distance education, which is now also referred to as distance learning or e‐learning, has existed for centuries. Although as Keegan says “the ideas surrounding the educational endeavor are somewhat similar” [1], it is not easy to find a single definition of distance education. While according to North [2], a few definitions even look to define it in terms of a single technology, according to long‐distance teaching [3], others display distance education simply as a recent development of the class into a remote location [4].

Tutu Delaware State University, USA Joyce BoAteng University of Ghana, Ghana ABSTRACT This study examined constituents of students’ perceptions on student- instructor, student-student and student-content interactions in a graduate course at University of Ghana. A survey (n=77) and focus group discussion (n=6), were employed in a Research Methods class at the University. Main constituents of students’ perceptions of and preference to student-student, student-instructor and student-content interactions were (1) perceived utility of course management systems and their ease of use; (2) perceived importance of social media and convenient access to instructors; and (3) perceived efficacy of the role of course multi-media and timely receipt of course information. The study concluded that, Sakai is a useful intermediary facilitating feedback provision, effective planning and promoting change in the design, development and delivery of graduate education.
