SeDi LMSS: A Self-Directed Learning Management and Support System for Flexible Teaching and Learning Experience

Abstract

This study explored the customization of a platform for the Learning Management and Support System (LMSS) dubbed as SeDi: Self Directed LMSS and examined how usable the platform is using the quantifiable usability metrics such as completion rate, overall relative efficiency, and task level satisfaction. The development of the platform followed the four-phased rapid application development methodology to meet the requirements of the target beneficiaries more quickly. Participants in the evaluation of usability were users who are computer literate and first-time users of the platform. Results show that the customized platform is effective in terms of completion rate, efficient in terms of overall relative efficiency, and very easy to use in terms of task-level satisfaction.
