Learning Management Systems. If you’re looking for an instructional design job in higher education, experience with a Learning Management System (LMS) is very helpful. If you’re seeking jobs in workplace training, expertise in an LMS is likely not as critical.

Moodle is the LMS used by several of my clients. Although my primary freelance work is designing courses, I do some LMS consulting as well. Once in a while I actually use it for presentations too. Google Docs is where I keep track of my time spent on projects , create quick drafts, and other tasks.

I’m so used to thinking about just the data in the LMS that I hadn’t considered adding that little bit of Javascript to enable Google tracking for aggregate usage data. One idea Nick Floro shared in this session was to use Google Analytics to track usage data on courses. That’s so simple, it should have been obvious.

For example, I once created a software tutorial on how to troubleshoot a particularly problematic task in an LMS. The actual story was pretty thin (an instructor has a problem in the LMS), but the character gave learners enough to relate to. Stories can also be helpful for modeling the thought process that accompanies using software.
