History
The LMS Futures Workgroup was charged by the EVC of Academic Affairs and the EVC of Business and Finance in December, 2008 to develop recommendations for effective and efficient LMS services environments that
- support teaching and learning activities that contribute to improved student success;
- improve the management of academic programs on campuses and across campuses; and
- can be integrated with appropriate services selected by campuses and the CSU system.
The LMS Futures Workgroup will present its draft to the Academic Technology Steering Committee (ATSC) for review, revision, and recommendations.
