Times are tough now. All the planning for the year 2020 has been changed. With the change in the planning session, schools need to buckle up and get ready for the opening for the school. In our research, on reddit.com we got to know that schools are using virtual classrooms to engage students and keep running the curriculum.

It came to the realization that technology in education is very important. Not only at the time of crisis but also in regular times. But the potential of EdTech becomes extremely apparent when students and teachers have no other options but to sit in their homes.

Along with Learning Management Systems like Google Classroom, Moodle; Some institutions are able to deliver results, assign assignments, and allow registration via education ERP.

There are many more advantages that institutes can avail of these technologies.

Key benefits of education management systems

Access to the information

The education ERP software can be accessed from anywhere, anytime. Any authorized user (teacher/staff/students/parents) can get any record they want with login credentials. It brings seamless work-flow even with remote working. This capability of using an automated system for school management makes educators prepare for every situation.

On-time Student-Teacher Collaboration

Using an online school management system enables great student-teacher collaboration, beyond the classroom. Teachers can give assignments, give remarks on assignments, provide feedback. All these interactions happen over the application, online. With the integration of the Learning Management System (that Academia ERP provides), remote learning becomes much easier and fun. We’ll discuss it later.

Increased Parents Involvement

Getting their wards information while sitting home is highly convenient for today’s parents. They can get the results, check their academic performances, track the syllabus while they are working or busy with something else. There is no need to stand in line and waste hours just to get single information. With Parent Portal or a mobile app such as Academia Student App, it increases the transparency between the institute and parents.

Key benefits of learning management systems

1. All eLearning content in one platform

Keeping all the learning material such as hard drives, laptops, the paperback is not an efficient way to keep a record. It creates confusion. But with a learning management system, such as Moodle, you can store all the materials online in one location. This not only reduces the risk of losing important information but is also convenient for both students and teachers both. It is the best fit for online learning collaboration.

2. Easy-to-track learner’s progress

This software gives the ability to teach to keep track of students’ progress and ensure that they are meeting their potential. Suppose, if an online learner is not able to successfully complete any course, teachers can offer them supplemental resources to improve their performance. Learning Management Systems feature reporting and analytics tools that also allow you to pinpoint areas of your eLearning course that may be lacking, as well as where it excels. If you discover that many of your online learners are struggling throughout a specific online lesson, for example, you can assess the eLearning content and make modifications if necessary.
