3. LMS Landscape

5. •
One one hand, the market is saturated -
almost all schools have standard LMS
•
On the other hand, the usage of LMS is
typically shallow - mostly syllabus and
content sharing
•
Broader faculty adoption requires more
complete support
Trend: Broader Adoption

7. •
System stability and reliability - too many
outages for too long
•
Feature bloat - too many features at
expense of usability
•
Very light or shallow adoption by faculty
•
Primary benefits have been administrative
Problems in LMS Market

8. LMS as Hub, or Platform
• Farewell to the enterprise LMS market, hello to the
Learning Platform market
• Interoperability with tools

12. LMS Market Trends

13. Trend: Many Market
Entries, Not All
Succeed

14. New Market Entries

15. Trend: Cloud-Based
Hosting
•
Three primary hosting models
•
Self-hosting is becoming the exception
•
Vendor hosting in non-cloud-native
environment growing
•
Native cloud environments growing

17. Trend: Cloud Platforms,
cont’d
•
No new LMS or learning platform is being
developed as enterprise system - all new
are cloud platforms
•
Lore designed 2 LMS systems in ~ 12
months and less than $4M investment
•
Coursera and Udacity developed platform
in less than 12 months

18. Trend: Ed Tech Market

20. Trend: Pricing Power
•
LMS Market is much more competitive than
3 years ago
•
For schools going through selection
process, they often find significant cost
savings (we’ve seen 50%+ in some cases)

21. Learning Analytics

23. Trend: Focus on Content /
LMS Interaction
•
All major academic publishers working with
most major LMS solutions for deeper
integration with digital content
•
Rise of Courseware
•
IMS / LTI Standards are key

24. The Course as a Product:Then and Now
Enter the
of Courseware

25. Typical LMS Select &
Implementation
Projects

26. LMS Selection Process
RFI = Request for Information
RFP = Request for Proposal
