LMS use in both businesses and schools is on the rise. However, though LMSs are commonly used in universities, the spread of standard use in high schools is relatively sluggish. Why is this the case?

Lack of school funding and proper LMS training for educators are just two of many reasons. But given the benefits that experience with LMS technology provides for learners, and the fact that not all young people end up going to college, it’s important that high schools start start using these collaborative learning softwares.  Doing so will prepare high school students for more education—especially the ones who may not be heading off to college, but will look into online learning or training courses. Having had experience with LMS in the past will make a world of difference.
