近年来，大学在采用电子学习方法进行教学和学习方面面临越来越大的压力。特别是，重点一直在学习管理系统（LMS）和相关的协作工具，以提供机会，分享知识，建立一个学习者的社区，并通过对话和协作支持更高层次的学习和批判性思维。由于与可用的免费应用程序相比，LMS可以提供更高水平的数据连续性，可靠性和隐私性，LMS仍然是许多大学提供电子学习的中心平台。因此，研究影响用户参与度的LMS结构是至关重要的。本文重点介绍了重要的LMS设计因素，影响用户参与LMS内的电子学习工具。结果是从74个采访中提取的黑板与学生和讲师在澳大利亚的一所主要大学。用户友好的结构，避免太多的工具和链接，支持隐私和匿名发布，以及更可定制的以学生为中心的工具被确定为影响用户参与的LMS设计因素。
In recent years, universities have been under increased pressure to adopt e-learning practices for teaching and learning. In particular, the emphasis has been on learning management systems (LMSs) and associated collaboration tools to provide opportunities for sharing knowledge, building a community of learners, and supporting higher order learning and critical thinking through conversation and collaboration. Due to the greater level of data continuity, reliability, and privacy that LMSs can provide compared to the available free applications, LMSs are still the central platform for many universities to deliver e-learning. Therefore, it is vital to investigate the LMS structure requisites that affect user engagement. This paper focuses on the important LMS design factors that influence user engagement with e-learning tools within LMSs. Results were extracted from 74 interviews about Blackboard with students and lecturers within a major Australian university. A user-friendly structure, avoidance of too many tools and links, support for privacy and anonymous posting, and more customisable student-centred tools were identified as LMS design factors that affect user engagement.
