Abstract(s)
Learning Management Systems (LMS) are mainly used as a didactic support for the presential classes.
However, because of the tools they provide, they are also essential to support b-learning and e-learning
process. Because of this, most universities rely on some LMS through many or all of the courses. This paper
describes a study performed in two different universities regarding the students’ perception about the
usefulness and the usability of two different LMS: Moodle and Sakai. Through a focus group, students shared
their opinion and discussed about their experience. In addition, data from the log of the platforms was also
analysed, to assess how teachers use the LMS tools. In general, it can be stated that when the teacher knows
how to use the LMS, students feel more comfortable using it and have a better learning experience. Regarding
the tools, teachers mostly rely on the repository of documents.
