As technology
evolves so will LMS, there are trends that I feel will be here for the long
term. I wish augmented reality would have the most impact because I think it is
really amazing, but I think the trend that will impact digital learning the most
is personalization/adaptive delivery. Gone are the days in the traditional classroom
where there is a model that fits all learners. Technology is revolutionizing the way
traditional teachers meet learners’ needs, and I feel that the online learning
environment is becoming more personalized.
I think LMS will
have learning style surveys. They will give the learners choices on how they
want to learn whether it is watching a video, reading and article, or
researching information. In addition, they will have choice on the products
they complete. The teacher will have the opportunity to give the students’
direct instruction and coaching when needed. The students will have opportunity
to co-plan their learning, set goals and reflect. The strategies the instructors
will use will be varied to meet learning styles. The pace of the course will be
flexible. Mastery-based assessment will be used with frequent feedback, rubrics
and checklists to drive assessments and clear expectations set for students to
be successful.
After reviewing
several LMS, I can see that many of the systems are starting to adapt to be
more personalized. I feel that this will help learners be more successful and
learners will grow at their own pace.
