digital technologies, analysis, scientific literature, LMS, learning platformsAbstract
Modern information tools have a significant impact on the transformation of basic approaches to education, and learning management systems (LMS) have become an important mechanism in this process. The purpose of this review is to show the state of the art and trends in the use of LMS in modern education. To achieve this goal, the article uses the scientific method of content analysis of scientific literature selected specifically (78 items of literature were analysed in total). The results show that the development of Internet technologies contributes to the emergence of new forms of information exchange, including e-learning platforms. E-learning is convenient and mobile for students and provides an individual approach. Certain e-learning technologies can be used not only in online education, but also in traditional forms of education, such as full-time and part-time. The most popular are the capabilities of Moodle, which was established through the analysis of scientific literature. Blackboard and Google Classroom are also important and popular, but they have more situational applications. Other LMSs are more regionally popular, although they also play a role in the learning process. The results also emphasise that modern LMS technologies make learning more accessible and interesting for students, which makes the process more democratic and accessible to learning. The conclusions draw attention to the importance of continuing research, as digital technologies is evolving, making them a subject for further studies.
