Abstract

The emergence of networked computers has brought to the forefront the use of web-based education, which defies boundaries. The pivotal advantage associated with web based learning is the classroom and platform independence it provides. Current web-based systems are found to be a collection of static pages accessorized with few videos. The learning associated with these web based systems is static and serial, making the whole process uninteresting and incomplete. The need for the hour is a Learning Management System (LMS), which adapts itself according to the learner's performance and learning path. This paper provides insight into building an effective and efficient LMS using five general principles, which are defined as the Five Elements. This leads to the creation of a dynamic, learnercentered environment which focuses on learning retention and cognitive development, juxtaposed with emerging technologies.
