If so, what are your metrics for determining ROI (including both tangible and intangible elements)? • Are the systems you are considering widely used and supported? • Do you want the LMS to be used universally throughout your organization or is this for a particular function or department? • What is your budget? What is the total cost of ownership including implementation, maintenance and upgrading costs? • To what scale will your organization ultimately use the LMS? (1,000 users? 10,000 users? 50,000 users? More? How many instructors? How many administrators?). Think five or ten years ahead. • If you wish to consider open-source solutions, do you have a strong and supportive IT department to implement, manage, and support it, or will you seek a hosted solution to provide that support? • To what extent will the LMS be accessible to instructors and students with disabilities? Audience • Will online learning be an alternative or a requirement for some people? • If you are an educational institution, will it be just for continuing education or for all students and/or staff? • Will it be available to students beyond your jurisdiction? Will it be available for customers, suppliers or the public as well as your employees? • Will prerequisite learning be required? Features • Does it have the features you need? • Are you interested in blending e-learning with classroom learning? • Do you want e-learning to be both synchronous and asynchronous? • Will you need to manage the physical distribution of materials to students as well as providing them with tools online? Will students need to buy hard-copy textbooks or will they be provided online? • To what extent do you want to include assessments, including feedback and surveys as well as online tests? Look and feel • Is it easy to use for instructors and students? • How do you want your courses to look? Do you want them to have similar navigation so it becomes intuitive for students? Extras • Will you be purchasing content from outside sources? • Will you need additional course development tools? • Will you need web conferencing/virtual classroom capability? • Will you want to manage your course content and learning objects so that they are reusable by others? • Will you need to allow students to register for classroom or distance education courses? 92 Education for a Digital World
