Abstract

Learning Management System (LMS) is a software that is used for Administration, Documentation, and Reporting of activity, both teaching and learning activities or other activities carried out online. LMS is a tool for the success of learning. This web/online-based learning is supported by lots of software that can be applied in teaching and learning activities. This application can make students and lecturers interact well. The effectiveness of the alternative LMS is assessed by how capable the LMS can be used as a tool in reducing the obstacles that occur in the LMS system that is commonly used. This research aims to see how effectively alternative LMS is used in learning. The method of analysis uses descriptive statistics on a questionnaire of needs and responses from users to the difficulties experienced by the commonly used basic learning LMS. The results of the research show that an alternative LMS is needed to overcome the problem of user density when the exam is carried out simultaneously. In addition, it is needed as an alternative task collection that can contain a larger storage capacity.
