This year has really been a year like no other, but for the eLearning industry, the year has attributed to some major exponential growth thanks to the pandemic. With organisations, schools and education providers operating remotely this year, many opportunities have presented themselves for education technology and eLearning.
Modern professors and employers are discovering that traditional education practices are no longer sufficient for today’s students and employees. Innovation is necessary to help audiences retain information.
Open LMS partners with Mediamaisteri Oy to offer the Nordic corporate market a Moodle™-based institutional LMS with all the features and functionalities sought after in a digital learning environment by the region’s corporate sector.
One of the most unique and stubborn challenges for online learning is building engagement. In a brick-and-mortar classroom, student engagement is enhanced by the physical limitations imposed by space and time as well as the various interactive moments instructors construct to provoke thought and response. Online, those factors do not lie in favor of the classroom content, so engagement needs to be fostered in ways that work asynchronously for diverse learners in a range of locations.
Half-year results from Open LMS show 20% new sales growth rate, the fastest in the company’s history, and a total of nearly 1,700 SaaS LMS customers globally.
It’s that exciting time of year again when one of the biggest events in education is taking place! EduTECH International Congress & Expo 2021, Australia’s largest education event, is expected to welcome thousands of attendees for a two-day event filled with incredible keynote speakers from Australia and internationally, online exhibition booths, and plenty of attendee interaction.
Open LMS and AWS expand their growing relationship with the launch of Open LMS’s flagship open-source learning management systems on AWS’s secure AWS GovCloud (US).
Education and technology have merged during the 21st century to become a powerful force for learning. Moving past traditional classroom or training conferences, eLearning has opened onboarding potential for new hires, allows users to network, learn and explore anywhere, and makes it easy to recertify licenses with online continuing education courses.
Every time I get to write something about what is happening at Open LMS, I get more excited about what the future holds for us and our community… and today is no different. I’m excited to announce that LMSPulse, one of the premier news sources for #EdTechNerds like me, is joining forces with E-Learn Magazine, Open LMS’s community initiative to share best practices around eLearning. Just as importantly, Stephen Ladek, the Director of LMSPulse will be joining the Open LMS team as our Principal of eLearning Advocacy.
