Break free of the LMS, says MyKnowledgeMap at Learning Technologies 2009

Michael Stuart

This years Learning Technologies conference saw Tom Holland, MyKnowledgeMap's Director of Communications, conducting a popular seminar entitled 'Really Managing e-Learning: Breaking Free of the LMS'. During the seminar, Dr Holland discussed how to get more flexibility than is currently offered from the "monolithic" learning management system (LMS) platform.

He said: "People increasingly expect to access the same content via mobiles, laptops, print-on-demand, or on takeaway storage media. Learners need to be able to break out of your LMS's walled garden and learn on the move."

He moved on to discuss how multi-platform learning could be cost-effective and introduced MyKnowledgeMap's mobile assessment product Multi-Port Mobile as an example. The award-winning Multi-Port Mobile offers a complete infrastructure for managing online and offline assessments using mobile devices.

The Learning Technologies conference took place between 28th and 29th January 2009 at the Olympia 2 Conference Centre in London. Now in its tenth year, the conference attracts many of the world's leading learning speakers, thinkers, visionaries and practitioners and over 350 conference delegates.
