Karen, your discernment between learning management and content management is really key. Nicely simply put. And your analogy to the letter soup we're trying to untangle with the scale soup for beginning music theory is apropos.
If only the education/corporate/military worlds could standardize their acronyms as well as Guido d'Arezzio!
When one begins reading all the letters, as done last week, it can be confusing. When one continues to work through the letters, reading the articles, it can be very good in helping the confusion to go to a better understanding. The chart showing LMS and LCMS is a bit helpful, although one still has to understand the basic core that LMS is teaching the student and LCMS is the content of the class being taught. There is a huge difference. The requirements of what is being taught and the core curriculum would be found in the LCMS, where as the student and what they do to learn the curriculum would be in the LMS.
