Background of the study
Learning Management Systems (LMS) are software applications that provide a platform for educators to manage and deliver educational content. Local LMS solutions are hosted on the school’s internal infrastructure, while cloud-based LMS platforms are hosted on external servers, offering greater scalability and accessibility (Goh et al., 2023). Cloud-based systems are particularly advantageous for schools with limited resources, as they do not require heavy investments in hardware and maintenance.
In secondary schools in Bauchi Local Government Area, there has been a growing interest in adopting LMS for facilitating online learning and improving educational outcomes. This study will compare the use of local versus cloud-based LMS platforms in secondary schools in Bauchi, focusing on factors such as accessibility, user experience, cost, and impact on teaching and learning.
Statement of the problem
While cloud-based LMS solutions have become popular in educational settings due to their flexibility and ease of access, many secondary schools in Bauchi still rely on local LMS platforms. The comparison of these two types of systems in terms of their effectiveness in supporting teaching and learning remains underexplored. This study aims to provide a comprehensive comparison of both types of LMS in secondary schools in Bauchi Local Government Area.
