The following paragraph was copied from Tamara Collins Blog Site.
"CMS’s or Course Management Systems is closely related to LMS’s and is a system most often used by educational systems. The CMS is an Internet-based software that manages student enrollment, tracks student performance, and creates and distributes course content (theJournal, 2004). A common CMS is the popular site Blackboard. Moodle is another example of CMS and LMS as well as known as a Virtual Learning Environment. It’s a software package that manages Internet-based courses and websites (http://www.moodle.org)."
The future of education and technology will not be able to work alongside. It is up to the educator to embrace technology to modify his or her delivery of instruction.
CMS & LMS are not only systems but they are method in delivering an sharing instruction with students and clients. Blackboard is a CMS tool to management and deliver information, but the Course Management System is a method of delivering subject content instruction in providing students a broad base of knowledge. Its design is to educate students and bring out critical thinking coming from reading and sharing information.
LMS provides a more customer type of structure based on the needs of the client with little less time to develop an area of expertise while LCMS provides more specific instruction with the expectations that the student is an expert when the lecture is complete.
You are correct with the technological concept for each learning platform. It goes a little deeper where I became a little confused.
