RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND STUDENTS' ACHIEVEMENT IN KWARA STATE UNIVERSITY.
Abstract
This study examined the relationship between Learning Management Systems
(LMS) and students’ academic achievement in higher institutions within Kwara State, Nigeria. The integration of LMS in educational institutions has been recognized as a
transformative approach to teaching and learning, yet its effectiveness in the Nigerian context remains underexplored. Using a descriptive survey research design, the study
sampled 400 undergraduate students from the Kwara State Universityand Kwara State
University. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire addressing LMS
usability, content delivery effectiveness, and collaboration tools. The findings revealed a significant positive relationship between LMS usage and students’ academic achievement.
Specifically, LMS usability, effective content delivery, and collaboration tools were all found to positively influence academic performance. The study concludes that effective
implementation and utilization of LMS can significantly enhance learning outcomes in Nigerian higher education. Recommendations were made for stakeholders including
students, educators, administrators, and policymakers to invest in and support the adoption
of user-friendly and interactive LMS platforms to optimize academic success.
