Luminis content management system
A software application (or set of applications) that manages the creation, storage, use, and reuse of learning content. LCMSs often store content in granular forms such as learning objects.
Learning Content Management System
An integrated set of technologies used to manage all aspects of learning content, including authoring or acquisition, content history, auditing, replacement and deletion. An LCMS requires that content be broken into "learning objects," which represent learning events such as classes. These objects can be organized into courses, courses into curricula, curricula into student learning agendas, and so on. Traditional content management software can perform these tasks, but requires customization for the e-learning focus; hence, a new LCMS software category has emerged. See e-learning.
