In the field of education in particular in e-learning, a formal Learning Management System (LMS) always plays an important role. As in CityU, we have got Blackboard and other associated management programmes like AIMS to assist our learning through internet and to facilitate our communication with fellow students and others.
As mentioned in the article, sometimes it is found that the provision of LMS does not mean a complete success or entire efficiency in learning, since some mode of learning is achieved informally via trial-and-error or causal chatting with others. In fact, it is not surprised to find that some students who are not active in class but will be very enthusiastic after class, either in sports activities or social activities. This demonstrates the fact that a formal learning environment, including a formal LMS may not be suitable for every student. Alternatively, sometimes it is advantageous to allow certain flexibility or creativity for students to develop their own learning mode, which will motivate and enhance their incentive in learning.
All in all, there is no perfect LMS that could resolve all learning problems, and a continuous improvement is needed to cope with the ever changing environment especially the e-learning by internet, to suit the learning needs of students nowadays.
