INTRODUCTION

If you are an educator or business trainer, you have probably heard all the talk about 21st Century Schools

Implementing a Learning Management System (LMS, you have to firstly
define what you want from an online learning system?
Easy creation of courses from existing resources?
Course content which can be reused with different learners, including content from other vendors (Blackboard, WebCT etc.)?
Learner involvement?
Enrolment and learner authentication which is simple yet secure?
Intuitive online learner and teacher management features?
An active support community to help solve problems and generate new ideas?
Affordability?

Activities are at the heart of a course management system. GBLAMS
was designed by an educator and computer scientist, with “social constructionist” principles in mind. “Constructionism asserts that learning is particularly effective when constructing something for others to experience. This can be anything from a spoken sentence or an internet posting, to more complex artifacts like a painting, a house or a software package.” The concept of social constructivism extends the above ideas into a social group constructing things for one another, collaboratively creating a small culture of shared artifacts with shared meanings. When one is immersed within a culture like this, one is learning all the time about how to be a part of that culture, on many levels.
