WHAT IS CL-LMS?

CL-LMS is a cloud-hosted E-learning platform. It competes against products such as Blackboard, Desire2Learn, and Moodle. It's beautiful, modern, easy to use, and because it's hosted in the cloud, there's nothing to download, install or maintain.

With this interface, it is much easier for students to see and browse the class catalog.

CLASSES IN A CATEGORY

Instructor-led classes typically use their home page for the class activity feed, and include tabs for lessons, calendar, forums, blogs, and wikis. This keeps the focus on communications and collaboration.

INSTRUCTOR-LED CLASSES

Self-Paced classes typically use their home page for the lessons themselves, and disable the calendar and collaboration tools. This keeps the page very focused on the lessons.

SELF-PACED CLASSES

RESOURCESYou can use virtually any kind of resource when creating lessons, including:

The forums are threaded and you can subscribe to any thread you like. You can even vote on postings if this is enabled.

CURRICULA AND PROFICIENCIES

You can easily create curricula that indicate a set of proficiencies that a student should master.

You can share curricula with other teachers in your school/district.

COVERAGE AND TRACKING

If you associate a class with a curriculum, you can tag its lessons with the proficiencies they teach and tag its assignments with the proficiencies they assess.

Then you can do coverage analysis on your class to see how well it teaches/assesses the curriculum.

You can also track how students are doing on a per-proficiency basis.

We provide 9 different kinds of assignment, from traditional quizzes and essays to non-traditional assignments such as debates, discussions and team assignments that take full advantage of an online system.

ASSIGNMENTS

SCORM

We have full support for SCORM (the only standard for pluggable learning modules).

You can embed SCORM modules directly into lessons or have them pop-up in a separate window.

SCORM quizzes are seamlessly integrated with our assignment system for grading and tracking purposes.

Our grade book is fast and easy to use. It auto-sizes to your screen and can operate in full-window mode.

Just click on a cell to edit its grade, or click on an assignment to jump right to the assignment details. We even display the images for the lessons and assignments for clarity.

GRADEBOOK

Every assignment has its own dashboard where you can instantly see how many submissions have been made and how many are due.

You can set the proficiencies associated with an assignment, associate a rubric with the assignment, and configure many other options.

ASSIGNMENT DASHBOARD

If you click "View grades", you can enter fast-grade mode, which allows you to click through student submissions, view their response directly into the window, and grade their submissions without leaving the page.

This feature makes grading much faster than traditional methods.

FAST GRADING

GRADING OPTIONS

We provide a wide variety of grading options, including:

•5 different weighting systems

•Support for grading periods

•Support for nested grading periods

•Ability to individually adjust scores +/-

•Ability to select best/latest score

•Ability to specify max submissions

•Ability to control late submissions

We provide a rich set of analytics for various aspects of the system.

ANALYTICS

If you click on a student, you can see a timeline of all their activities in a class, as well as charts that show their progress and time spent on lessons and assignments.

STUDENT ACTIVITY

We provide a wide range of built-in reports, including usage statistics, class enrollment, class status, and class completion.

We add new reports regularly based on user feedback.

REPORTING

You can create certificates/badges and automatically award them when a class is completed. These certificates then show up in the user's profile.

You can also specify prerequisite certificates for a class. You can also create PDF versions of certificates for students to print out.

CERTIFICATES AND BADGES

MOBILE DEVICES, IPAD

If a user visits your site via a mobile device such as an iPhone or Android phone, they will automatically see a beautiful mobile interface that allows them to access all the features of the site.

Our competitors typically provide a mobile interface that only allows access to a small fraction of their regular site's features.

Our site is designed to look great when accessed via an iPad and other tablet devices!

We provide many ways to create and manage accounts, including self-registration, bulk import, form-based, and email invitations.

It's easy to import and export accounts, as well as defining account fields and custom avatars.

ACCOUNTS

We have comprehensive support for account fields, including the ability to add custom fields of your own. You can define which fields can be entered during registration and which may be edited by students.

You can even define fields that are only associated with particular types of account.

ACCOUNT FIELDS

Every user has a profile page that shows their basic information, certificates/badges earned, friends, and other related information.

Also, depending on permissions, you can also see which classes they are teaching/enrolled in, their groups, and photo album.

PROFILE PAGES

Our library system allows you to easily create and share resources at the personal, school, campus, and community level.

Resources are automatically organized by subject and type, and are fully searchable.

SHARING RESOURCES

Our built-in portfolio system allows students to collect their best work and organize it into folders.

This in turn allows them to easily share it with others and showcase their abilities.

PORTFOLIOS

It only takes a few clicks to network two or more schools into a district/campus.

This allows each school to have its own portal, while allowing the schools to easily share teachers, resources and be administered from a single location.

DISTRICTS/CAMPUS

We support wide range of languages.

Also, if you enable it, performs automatic translation on messages and forum postings so that users that speak different languages can easily communicate with each other!

INTERNATIONALIZATION

In future, these below mentioned updates will be released:

•Google apps integration

•Badge integration with Facebook & Twitter

•Public home pages

•Audio recording
