Management Information System

While doing my research, the two Learning Management Systems (LMS) that I selected were Moodle and Edmodo.

My organization uses an LMS to help teachers and students in the teaching and learning process. Teachers have the possibility not only to create lesson plans and quizzes but also to communicate with each other and with students and parents. Also, it can create a networking connection. “The functionality available in today’s learning management systems can help teachers create lessons and resources that engage their students, and deliver personalized learning” (Kilfoyle, 2015).

Brother Parker describes a major benefit of LMS being a “centralized source of learning” (Parker, 2014). This is a benefit to the users and stakeholders because everything is in one place, the training, evaluations, and progress are available at the same place (Parker, 2014). Having everything in one place means ISH will most likely have to go with an open-access

The superior capabilities of knowledge management systems provide an opportunity for the business to engage the most effective components and recognize the importance of communication to make informed, accurate decisions (McGrath, 2001). This system can organize the company’s knowledge resources, knowledge obtaining, organizing, and applying to make a sound routine the will enforce effectiveness (Niu, 2008). The dynamic function of knowledge management to create, capture, and apply knowledge to achieve an organization’s objective will allow them to be more profitable and successful (Zucker, 1986). In addition to increasing profits, the system can be also used to reduce costs and enhance research and development (DeTienne & Jackson, 2001). With all of these advantages, it would be wasteful for a company to not employ knowledge management. As seen in the Discovery Communications, Inc. example, the company can attribute their new productivity levels and increase in ease of securing documents to the knowledge management system that put into place by Carefree Technology. Like Discovery Communications, Inc., knowledge management is so popular today because companies can collect, process and share knowledge to ignite employees ' creativity which in turn will make the business grow. Wenhong and Jianhua (2009) explained the core of knowledge management is to convert company’s knowledge resources into an increased company

With all of the new technology and services being implemented, it may seem that they will be replacing the traditional methods of education. However, this is not the case, both Hallett and Ringenberg agree that a combination of traditional methods and the new ones, are necessary to create an optimal learning environment.“The terminology is blended learning”, says Ringenberg, “what we’re trying to teach teachers to do, is to incorporate different ways of improving the learning process using LMS, so it's not simply to replace pen and paper, but to be able to do more with technology than we could do

In 1597, Sir Francis Bacon wrote, “Knowledge is Power”. Hundreds of years later, this quote still implies today, especially for the success of any business. Today, businesses are flooded with constant data and information. Yet, managing all this information on a daily basis has definitely been a challenge for many companies to overcome. Today, managing knowledge is power; hence, the growing interest in knowledge management systems. The term knowledge management refers to the “discipline that promotes an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of an enterprise's information assets. These assets may include databases, documents, policies, procedures, and previously un-captured expertise

The technology is changing rapidly; it is used for the survival of the companies in the market. There are different IT based tools used by the different organisations according to their structure and requirements of the organisation. Some of the IT based tools are: internet, brainstorming sessions, video-conferencing, knowledge maps, and many others.

KM is significantly important for organizations in modern economic system, it is also a form of expertise management to administer and incorporate subjective information such as thoughts, insights, ideas and experiences in order to enhance individual knowledge as well as organizational value and corporate culture. (StudyMode, 1999)

The case “Knowledge Management at Anderson Consulting” takes a broad overview of Anderson’s knowledge management system (Knowledge Xchange) from its initial conception through various stages of growth and finally presents several potential avenues that could be taken to improve the system. Anderson’s knowledge management system was initially created in 1991 as a basic Lotus Notes email system which allowed them to get information into the field quickly, and rapidly expanded into the Xchange system which consists of more than one hundred documents housed throughout the world. Its success was due, in part, to knowledge management being considered a key part of Anderson’s overall business strategy. However, with its rapid

I hereby declare that the present study “Knowledge Management System Implementation: A Comparitive Study of Infosys and NTPC.” Is based on my original research work for the fulfillment

The key to understanding the difference between LMS and other computer education terms is to understand the systemic nature of LMS. LMS is the framework that handles all aspects of the learning process. An LMS is the infrastructure that delivers and manages instructional content, identifies and assesses individual and organizational learning or training goals, tracks the progress towards meeting those goals, and collects and presents data for supervising the learning process of the organization as a whole.[7]

In considerations for the various new techniques that have been added to the classroom in aid of learning, the four learning assets I have chosen to infuse are the lecture, videos, discussion/blogs and a test/ quiz component. The vision is that the setup will improve operations and enhance learning. The current LMS is supported by the technical department on staff. The video embedding will avoid trainees and students from having to hyperlink to another page and working through expired links or browser issues.

Although expert systems are expensive to build and maintain, they are inexpensive to operate. Development and maintenance costs and e spread over many users. The overall cost can be quite reasonable when compared to expensive and scarce human experts. Cost savings: Wages - (elimination of a room full of clerks) Other costs - (Minimize loan loss)

Hewlett Packard (HP) is a leading multinational organization providing products and services in many IT related technologies such as computer hardware and software, printers, scanners, storage devices etc. In 1995, the company decided to introduce knowledge management in its organization that will make its systems, processes, outcomes superior with organized and systematic knowledge handling and storage. HP faces severe competition and thus has to be ahead of the market using many strategies, one of which is application of Knowledge Management (KM). With over 600 business units located

The major characteristics of expert systems is what makes them really different from conventional programming and other traditional decision aiding tools. The growth of expert systems is expected to continue growing at least for several years or more. With the emergence of new technology and developing societies, many new and exciting tools of artificial intelligence will be introduced therefore the growth of expert systems is highly guaranteed. In order to fully understand and appreciate the nature of expert systems, we have highlighted and detailed a few major characteristics of expert
