“…The LMS is a crucial web-based platform that provides software (web) application used for planning, implementing, evaluating learning processes, producing content, and presenting and monitoring collaborators and educators (8,9). A study by Zuriyati and Kadir on the Malaysian higher education system showed the effectiveness, efficiency, and student satisfaction at a high level after using LMS (22). Another study by Hiltz discussed the importance of measuring collaborative learning using distance learning tools compared with traditional methods (12).…”

“…LMS, such as the Scientific Process System (SciPro) is not a specialized thesis process management system, but most of its features that are defined to perform in the mentioned system were equated and applied using the built-in features of the LMS. These include synchronous and asynchronous communication, private messages, forum, scoring various activities, checking, uploading, and storing student personal files, as well as the availability of files and resources (22). It should be noted that the ability to add required features tailored to the specialized thesis monitoring systems is not out of the reach of an open-source system.…”

Background: A large number of students enrolled in many universities and the low ratio of supervisors to the student have challenged the process of developing education and research. Today, information and communication technology (ICT) tools have changed the learning environments. We assessed the improvement in challenges in the thesis process for Master’s degree virtual students using learning management systems (LMS). Methods: This study is a translational research design focusing on adaptation of educational technology and was conducted in three stages: Preparation, implementation, and assessment in the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences in 2017. In the preparation stage, we matched LMS with technical support requirements. In the experimental stage, the effectiveness of a web-based system (LMS) for thesis support was assessed in 67, 65, and 51 master students in 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively, and they were followed two years. In the post- experimental stage, the program was assessed using quality criteria. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), analysis of variance (ANOVA), and post-hoc tests. Results: Data of 67 students as the first entry group were collected after two years of implementation of the program and 22 quality criteria were extracted by literature review and validated by focus group discussion. The results of students’ perspective showed that the scores of the quality criteria after using LMS in comparison other alternative methods were at the desirable level (mean score > 7), the social network and email scores were mostly at the moderate level, and the meeting was almost less desirable (mean score < 4). The results of the supervisors’ perspective also showed that the scores of the quality criteria were at the desirable level. The ANOVA result for most criteria was statistically significant at 95% CI. The results indicated the higher scores in all quality criteria after using LMS in comparison with alternative methods from the viewpoints of the supervisors and students (95% CI: 8.76 ± 0.83) and (95% CI: 8.71 ± 0.64), respectively. Conclusions: The results of this study indicated that implementing LMS for thesis support was almost twice more successful in achieving the considered criteria than other alternative methods in terms of both students’ and supervisors’ perspectives. Implementation of LMS in the thesis process, which significantly affects the quality and quantity of research through improvement in feedback quality, saves time, and increases the rate of thesis completion.

“…Canvas provides digital tools for messaging, creating a grade book, scoring student work by rubric, and other aspects associated with teaching and learning. However, despite financial investment in LMS, a substantial percentage of faculty members and instructors have not fully exploited its capabilities and therefore its utility in support of effective program assessment is mostly underutilized [4,5].…”

Background: Effective programmatic assessment (PA) is essential for accreditation of professional degree programs leading to licensure. Accreditation organizations for Higher Education Institution (HEI) programs such as the ABET may stipulate student outcomes. Programs seeking accreditation from ABET must present clear proof of a rigorous process that uses student work products to assess student outcomes attained. The value of PA results offers entry points for institutions and/or departments to initiate discussions on the status of student learning and to make informed decisions on program improvements. The concept of PA is well described in the literature; however, studies on implementing and operationalizing a consistent assessment approach using a Learning Management System (LMS) across courses of an academic program are lacking. Best practices on program assessment recommend that numerical scores of student performance should be linked to learning objectives. Few engineering faculties received formal grading training. They tend to rely on historical grading practices, personal experiences as students, or grade student work with a rubric that is disconnected from the learning objectives. Such traditional grading practices tend to mask the various aspects of student learning and therefore lacks the capacity to capture the full breadth of competency-based education. Globally, a high percentage of colleges and universities use a LMS to better manage teaching and learning activities. Despite the significant financial investment in LMS, faculty have not fully exploited its data capture, analytics and visualization capabilities and therefore its utility in support of effective program assessment is mostly underutilized.Objective: This paper seeks to add to the ongoing discussion on effective strategies that improve assessment of student learning in competency-based education. We present a case study to show the data collecting, data analytics and visualization capabilities of the Canvas TM LMS for student outcomes on communications for engineering management and engineering technology programs. In doing so, we address two questions that guided this investigation namely: a) what are the best practices to formulate student assignments given student outcomes for ETAC programs, and b) how to devise and setup up standard rubrics in a LMS for unbiased scoring of student work products.
