Top LMS/CMS Vendors: K12
This LMS allows teachers to train online, through cloud-based training, a perfect application if it's difficult and/or expensive to get all of the teacher together for a training. Also, it would help in a system where IT support was under-staffed. I also like the fact that Litmos works on most operating systems, iPhone, iPad, and Android. Since many students use their phones to access online content, this seems like it would work well from a student stand-point. From a teacher stand-point, creating courses takes only a few minutes and it has a very intuitive platform.
When trying to get teacher buy-in a line like: "The world's simplest LMS" is appealing. Also, it uses gamification platforms to keep students engaged and interested. I also like that it's easy to collaborate on this LMS and has a news feed feature as well. From a teacher point of view, I really like the reports that the instructor can pull easily. This program collects the data and makes it easy to export.
This was made with K12 education in mind. Due to that, it works well for the student, teacher, and parent. It's very easy to add students to the classroom and it's easy for students to collaborate through social feeds. Also, it works really well on mobile devices because again, most parents and students are using those to access the materials. Plus, they include engagement data from school systems which would be a bonus when trying to adopt this system.
