This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Learning Management Systems (LMS) are powerful tools for the organization and presentation of curricular learning materials, for monitoring of student and faculty members performance, and for overall quality control. However, there is limited evidence regarding the acceptance and performance of LMS in Africa. This manuscript describes the implementation, the outcomes, and the challenges of the first five years of a LMS at the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College (KCMUCo). The LMS has been fully adopted into KCMUCo curriculum and deployed to 1356 students. It has been demonstrated to enhance learning with strength of consensus measure of 84% for basic sciences and 78% for clinical classes. 80% of faculty members have been satisfied with the use of LMS. Electronic assessment has become an obligatory platform for theory examinations. LMS adoption may improve education outcomes at other medical schools in Tanzania and sub-Saharan Africa.
本文已迁移。该文章被标记为推荐。学习管理系统（LMS）是用于组织和呈现课程学习材料、监测学生和教师表现以及进行全面质量控制的强大工具。然而，关于LMS在非洲的接受情况和性能的证据有限。本手稿描述了乞力马扎罗基督教医科大学学院（KCMUCo）LMS头五年的实施情况、成果和挑战。LMS已完全融入KCMUCo课程并部署给1356名学生。已证明它能增强学习效果，基础科学课程的共识衡量强度为84%，临床课程为78%。80%的教师对LMS的使用感到满意。电子评估已成为理论考试的强制性平台。采用LMS可能会改善坦桑尼亚和撒哈拉以南非洲其他医学院的教育成果。
