Overview

About a Learning Content Management System

A Learning Content Management System (LCMS) is a centralized platform used to create, categorize, store, distribute, manage, and track educational content on the web. It allows experts, instructional designers, and other content professionals to author content as learning assets and reuse them to create online courses, exams, or lessons. 

 

On the other hand, LCMS software enables learners to access course materials, register for training, take multiple assessments, and different types of interactions.
Essentially, an LCMS brings together the entire learning content management lifecycle, eliminates duplicate efforts, and allows for rapid assembly of multi-format content. This helps organizations to boost their efficiency, optimize expenses, and increase the quality of learning materials.
And when an LCMS is combined with a
custom LMS, it is possible to get the best of the two worlds: leverage both content authoring and eLearning system administration.

Explainer

What LCMS Content Lifecycle Looks Like

  • Author. This component is responsible for rapid content assembly upon request. Educators can reuse learning objects rather than recreate them from scratch and assemble them as lessons, quizzes, or exams.
  • Publish. An LMCS relies on a standard XML language that makes it easy to update and release the learning materials in just a few clicks. Content authors can publish Microsoft Word, PDF, SCORM-compliant eLearning, HTML5, Microsoft PowerPoint files in just a few clicks.
  • Deliver. This part is responsible for the consistent delivery of specific learning content to target audiences.
  • Analyze. Modern LCMSs provide the metrics that help educators to analyze the learning object’s relevance and efficiency. With sophisticated eLearning analytics, organizations can continue to refine and improve their content in the long haul.

Tech Stacks for LCMS Development

WORDPRESS

WordPress is a beginner-friendly content management system that doesn’t require a technical background to go through the initial setup. This platform makes LCMS software development an easy-to-follow and straightforward process. Its unlimited flexibility makes it easy to author and deliver course pages, exams, and assignments and access analytics insights about learner’s performance and progress. Although most of the WordPress-based LCMSs have only basic functionality, their extensive library of customizable plugins comes to the rescue to enhance the capabilities of your platform.

DRUPAL

Drupal-based LCMSs offer an organized content management and classification system with easy administration and highly scalable infrastructure. With out-of-the-box translation capabilities and an extensive list of eLearning-related content templates, the platform helps to streamline content authoring and distribution. Despite having a steep learning curve, instructional designers can leverage the platform to add learning materials in various formats, including videos, interactive content, music, and HTML files. One also has to take into account that adding external plugins can hinder the performance of your Learning Content Management System.
