A learning management system (LMS) is a software application or web-based technology that is used to deliver, track, and manage learning processes. An LMS allows instructors to create and deliver content, monitor student participation, and assess student performance. It also provides interactive features like discussions and video conferencing for students. Key aspects of an LMS include its capabilities for media, creating an interactive experience, administration of student and course data, communication tools, and authoring tools for instructors to create assessments.
