Today's students represent great diversity in terms of their expectations, goals, learning styles, and physical locations. Schools must have the ability to respond to these new demands of today's learning environment. Students are beginning to expect new opportunities for learning and collaboration outside of the physical classroom. Jenzabar's Learning Management System (LMS) will help you meet these demands by providing tools and strategies to supplement or replace traditional in-classroom learning.

With Jenzabar's LMS, faculty and their students are connected, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in a way that the bricks and mortar environment cannot offer. Jenzabar's LMS:

• Enables institutions to provide students with the learning tools they expect.
• Enhances communication between students and faculty.
• Saves academic departments and instructors from the costs and hassles of copying and printing thousands of syllabi and other course materials.
• Automatically organizes all learning materials, assignments and tasks for students and faculty.
• Provides your students with one web interface for online registration, campus information, group activities and online learning.
• Offers faculty the ability to share any type of multimedia file with students.

Similar to our i³ strategy for Total Campus Management, we pride ourselves on our LMS' three core strengths:

Intuitive - Ease of use is our focus. We want it adopted by the majority not the technologically gifted minority.

Integrated - It is just one of the many pieces comprising Jenzabar's Internet Campus Solution (JICS). All of which are built and sold by one company.

Interface - the Jenzabar Application Program Interface (API) makes course creation and population automatic, so faculty can focus on the pedagogy and content. This vital piece is included with all installations of our LMS.

Via the connection with an institution's student information system (sis), Jenzabar's LMS will populate the respective student and faculty JICS accounts with their courses, schedules, descriptions, class lists and pre-populated gradebooks. This 100% Web-based system provides 24x7 access to course documents, announcements, web links, syllabi, threaded discussions, and real-time chat. Faculty will have the ability to update grades, assign online quizzes, track attendance, create and monitor course groups, and much more from any computer with Internet access.

These are just a few of the features included in Jenzabar's LMS:

• Online Testing - with an integrated and automated online Gradebook
• Attendance Tracking that can be downloaded to Excel

• Automatic Population of Accounts - with the correct course schedules, course descriptions, and enrolled students via an application program interface (API).
• Email - quickly send messages to one or more class lists, group lists or individual students.

• Readings - listings display the course's required, recommended and on reserve options
• Targeted non-email Communication Tools - send course specific events to student calendars, course specific announcements to students' My Homepages, and even send course or student specific Tasks to students' Task manager portlet.
