To do that, your LMS needs to give users modern tools to take training into their own hands.  \nBecause we now understand just how important discussion, communication, and incentives are to effective learning, modern LMSs now also include social learning, gamification, and integrated communications functions.  \nSOCIAL LEARNING  \nCommunity functions, like discussion boards, allow learners to collaborate with peers, instructors, and managers to keep the conversation going long after the training course has ended.  \nEducational researchers have been touting the benefits of discussion features in online learning for decades now because they allow participants to mindfully reflect on their peers’ contributions before responding—and it may be one of the most important elements of effective online training.  \nGAMIFICATION  \nIncentives like points, leader boards,","cbCaiaoQOtyDiIfT","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaoQOtyDiIfT","pdf",958692,"English","# Getting Started: Learning Management Systems\n## The rise of the modern LMS\n## LMS categories & delivery\n# The Business Case for an LMS\n## How to Choose an LMS the Right Way\n# Choosing Your First LMS vs. Making the Switch\n# Meet Spoke\n# The Checklist","[{\"question\":\"What is an LMS, and what core tasks does it support?\",\"answer\":\"An LMS is software for delivering and tracking training or educational courses.
