e-Learning Management System : a Critical StudyKaustav Saha
The success of the e-learning paradigm observed in recent times has created a growing demand for e-learning systems in universities and other educational institutions, which has led to the development of a number of either commercial or open-source eLearning Management Systems (eLMS). How they work or, what they are doing? These are some new problems arising that demands appropriate solutions. The present discussion initially highlights certain distinctive features of e-learning management systems. Basically the idea of adaptive e-learning is being facilitated through the use, implementation and installation of various open source or commercial software. Such software for their operation requires specific platforms. Because of multiplicity of platforms and approaches for systems implementation, it becomes increasingly difficult to manage or compare them. Each new LMS presents its own learning model. How to compare different e-learning platforms, and on what basis to choose the most adequate one, is a task of ever increasing importance. Thus a comparative study has been used to enumerate the utility and effectiveness of some e-learning software like Moodle, Sakai, Atutor, Caroline and Dokeos. However, with implementation of different eLMS modules certain barriers have evolved. Issues related to these barriers would be addressed in the concluding section of this discussion. Besides this, the conclusion also provides insights in regard of what lies in future for the idea of e-learning management systems, and how can its drawbacks be resolved.
LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A learning management system (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of educational courses or training programs.They help the instructor deliver material to the students and other assignments, track student progress, and manage record-keeping. LMSs are focused on online learning delivery but support a range of uses, acting as a platform for fully online courses, as well as several hybrid forms, such as blended learning and flipped classrooms. LMSs can be complemented by learning technologies such as a training management system to manage instructor-led training or a Learning Record Store to store and track learning data.

Using TOGAF to establish an SDLC Training CapabilityLouw Labuschagne
A major financial institution in South Africa initiated a Strategic Improvement Project within their Group Technology department to decrease development time, improve quality and improve collaboration by adopting an industry best-practice methodology and an integrated development toolset.
Our involved started when the project came under pressure to enable 1200 staff members, across the business, to use both tools and methodology on new product development projects.
The new proposed system helps manage the data easily. Members will be able to register and
manage their particulars from anywhere. The proposed system will reduce the response time and
redundancy significantly. The new system reduces the chances of fraud. The system generates bills
every month and sends it to the members. It makes checking schedules for class easy both for the
members and the management. Members will be able to schedule personal classes easily. The new
system makes it easy to inform all the members about important announcements.

He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
