eFront for Education

Cultivate better learning experiences, engage students and create the future classroom

Overview

The need for education will never change. But the way we learn and the way we teach will. It’s vital for schools, universities and other organizations in the education industry to look to the future, instead of the past. With eFront, you can equip both students and teachers with the skills and knowledge essential for the 21st century.

Key challenges for the education sector

Generational shifts

Whether a public school, a private academy or a college or university, your students will have grown up with technology. Traditional classroom learning is no longer able to keep their attention.

Rise of MOOCs

As massive open online courses (MOOCs) become more pervasive, formal education institutions like colleges and universities face increasing competition.

Inflexible budgets

As the world economy slows down and governments tighten spending, education budgets are decreasing. And even in privately-funded education institutions, budgets are often rigid with pressure to show return-on-investment immediately.

Talent shortage

With half of all teachers leaving the occupation after five years, and a low retention rate overall, educational institutions are facing a talent shortage that needs to be addressed.

The benefits of using an LMS for education

Move your traditional classroom online and gain all the advantages of eLearning in education. Like, reducing costs and creating a more dynamic and enjoyable learning experience for students. By using learning management systems in the education sector, you’ll reach more students, cultivate more minds and help teachers reach their full potential.

Supports immersive learning

Learning management systems for schools make it easier for teachers to offer blended learning courses and enrich those courses with audio, video and other social learning tools.

Automated grading

Learning management systems come with assessment engines that help create all types of tests that teachers can use to automatically set points as learners go through them. This reduces grading time and frees up teachers to provide more effective support to students.

Offers remote learning

Students, parents and teachers can access the online virtual classroom from anywhere in the world, at any time, and in some cases, even if connectivity is an issue.

Boost student engagement

Points, levels, badges, leaderboards and rewards encourage higher engagement with learning material. Activate eLearning gamification and learning becomes more enjoyable for students.

More scale, lower cost

Compared to traditional classroom learning, a multi-tenant LMS reduces operating costs by integrating thousands of learners from multiple locations into a single online platform. Ideal for organizations offering distance learning education courses.

Smart administration
