What are the fundamental features of a modern LMS?
I my opinion some of the fundamental features that one should look for in any Modern LMS are:
- Easy Handling
- Cloud Based
- Fully Customizable or we can say white label LMS
- Mobile compatible
- Gamification
- SCORM and Tin Can API
- Extended Enterprise
I am sure with time this particular answer will keep changing. Having said that I would not like to count SCORM, Cloud based, selling course, creating a learning path or some reporting tools as fundamental features, it’s a given that we will certainly have those things by default.
Here I would like to highlight two features which I feel is fundamental in today’s time, as it plays a pivotal role in driving engagement amongst learners.
Interactive videos
For one simple reason I’d say this is the best innovation because here you can make high level engagement immersive video out a boring video in a jiffy.
Interactive videos make learning engaging, immersive and fun. Paradiso LMS gives you the capability to create, share and reuse interactive videos with your learners. So, what are interactive videos? These are videos made by the addition of immersive interactive elements such as images, elaborating text, links, quizzes, etc. These interactions are shown by blue dots or red dots that get placed on the timeline below the video. These dots indicate that an interaction is available at those particular points in the video. And there is much more.
Here is a YouTube link where you can see Interactive Videos in action
