Schoology

A Learning Management System (LMS) is a software program that allows teachers and students to more easily communicate, access, and maximize digital instructional materials and electronic resources.  Simply put, the electronic Learning environment is able to be more easily Managed by a Software program, an LMS.  Changing technologies, updated electronic resources, expanded access to instructional tools and devices are part of today’s educational landscape.  While there are definite advantages, organizing, and accessing numerous apps, lessons, usernames and passwords have become increasingly challenging for students and teachers.  An LMS is able to address and streamline these challenges.  With the flexibility of implementation appropriate to elementary, middle and high school teachers and students, the districtwide integration of an LMS is a powerful educational tool.
