12 2. OVERVIEW OF WEB-BASED TRAINING 2.1 LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (LMS) The LMS is a software suite that provides the training community with the ability to deliver, manage, and track training. The LMS is a flexible system that: Hosts the web courses that are designed for a web-based training environment Incorporates a customized look and feel designed specifically for each course Offers 24/7 access to the courses as well as LMS management and communication features via the Internet Provides the ability to conduct virtual classes over the Internet, where students learn at their own pace Allows students to access the web courses for reference purposes while on the job and for refresher training Stores documents referenced in the training courses and provides users the ability to upload and share documents with other users using various student support tools Records student data including course progress, completed lessons, number of logins, and length of login time Includes capabilities to track student progress and generate a variety of standard reports about their training activities Allows for future expansion of and enhancements to training programs using emerging training technologies and learning strategies This training guide explains the LMS and course functions with step-by-step instructions for navigating through the system and completing tasks. 2.2 LMS SCREEN FORMAT The LMS screens are organized in the general format described in Figure 2-1. JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 2-1

13 Figure 2-1. LMS Screen Format 2.3 WEB-BASED TRAINING COURSES Each course is comprised of lessons intended to be taken sequentially. Users wanting to use the course content for refresher training or as an on-the-job reference may access the lessons in any order Estimated Duration Each course includes an estimated duration. This is an average completion time for each course. Because the course lessons are self-paced, the actual time the student is actively interacting with the course will vary. Each lesson varies in size according to the nature and amount of content Objectives Using the training guide will help Training Coordinators, Course Managers, Reports Managers, and Students become familiar with key components of the LMS and navigate the many features within the LMS.

31 5. WHAT REPORTS MANAGERS NEED TO KNOW This section of the guide describes functionality for users assigned the Reports Manager role (see Section 3.3). An organization may have one or more designated Reports Managers who are administratively responsible for running reports to track and monitor student information and student performance. Reports Managers have the ability to run various reports for their organization s classroom, event, and web-based courses (see Section 9). Figure 5-1. Reports Manager Desktop JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 5-1

32 6. WHAT COURSE MANAGERS NEED TO KNOW This section of the guide describes functionality for users assigned the Course Manager role (see Section 3.3). An organization may have one or more designated Training Coordinators and may choose not to designate any Course Managers, or may designate a single Course Manager, or more than one who are administratively responsible for multiple courses. Course Managers have the ability to enroll/unenroll students for their assigned courses and approve/deny enrollment requests for courses they are assigned, regardless of the student s organization. Course Managers also run reports for web-based courses regardless of student s organization. Course Managers are assigned courses by their Training Coordinators or other Course Managers. Course Managers also have the ability to upload training content such as classes, events, page turners, and web-based courses (see Section 8). It is recommended that training staffs use the NIPRnet LMS development server ( Nemesis same login/password as the production server) as a platform for familiarization with the basic functions described in this manual. Training staffs should identify three people: a Training Coordinator, a Course Manager, and a Student and exercise the various capabilities together (preferably in the same room) so the staff is familiar with what occurs as training is assigned. The processes for uploading a class or event, a web-based course, a page turner, or a new course version, creating a new course section, and building a curriculum are the same procedures for both Course Managers and Training Coordinators (see Section 8). However, the functionality of enrolling and unenrolling students has a different view for the Course Manager role and the Training Coordinator role. 6.1 ENROLL/UNENROLL STUDENTS The Course Manager desktop will display three tabs: Courses you Manage, Courses you Administer, and Courses you Teach (see Figure 6-1). Figure 6-1. Course Manager Desktop JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 6-1

33 1. From the main LMS page, top menu bar, position the cursor over [Course Utilities]. 2. Position the cursor over [Registration Management]. 3. Select [Enroll Student]. 4. Select [Course to Enroll Students]. Figure 6-2. Course Manager Enrollment 5. Select the course, local class, or event based on the prefix code. 6. Click [Search for Student]. Complete optional fields (Username, First Name, Last Name, or Organization). Figure 6-3. Select Course to Enroll Students 7. Click [Find Users]. Check the [Select] box for students to enroll. 8. Click [Enroll Students]. Figure 6-4. Enroll Students JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 6-2

34 Note: For classroom and event type courses which have multiple sections created for different dates, both Course Managers and Training Coordinators have the option to choose which section they would like to enroll the student into. The LMS will display if a section is full (see Figure 6-5). Figure 6-5. Section Full Screen From time to time you may need to unenroll a student who was originally enrolled in a course section. Unenrolling students keeps the status of students up-to-date in the database and helps ensure that reports reflect accurate enrollment and student participation information. To unenroll a student: 1. Consult the list of assigned courses and click the [Enrollment] link within the entry for the assigned course. Refer to Figure 6-6. Figure 6-6. Enrollment Screen 2. You will be presented with a list of students who have already enrolled (if any). To unenroll a student, check the box next to the student s name and click [Drop] at the bottom of the screen (see Figure 6-7). JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 6-3

36 7. WHAT TRAINING COORDINATORS NEED TO KNOW This section of the guide describes functionality for users who are assigned the Training Coordinator role (see Section 3.3). Typically these users are the Training Officers at a command with responsibility for tracking personnel training. An organization may have one or more designated Training Coordinators. Training Coordinators have an enterprise view of the entire LMS (including other training staff). Training Coordinators have the ability to enroll/unenroll students for all courses, approve/deny enrollment requests for all courses regardless of the student s organization, and have the ability to run reports across the enterprise, not just within their organization. Training Coordinators have the ability to associate more than one Course Manager to a course and can associate curriculums with specific Course Managers. Both Training Coordinators and Course Managers can upload and assign training content (see Section 8). It is recommended that training staff use the NIPRnet LMS development server ( Nemesis same login/password as the production server) as a platform for familiarization with the basic functions described in this manual. Training staffs should identify three people: a Training Coordinator, a Course Manager, and a Student and exercise the various capabilities together (preferably in the same room) so the staff is familiar with what occurs as training is assigned. The processes for uploading a class or event, a web-based course, a page turner, or a new course version, creating a course section, and building a curriculum are the same procedures for both Course Managers and Training Coordinators. However, the functionality of enrolling and unenrolling students has a different view for the Course Manager role and the Training Coordinator role. 7.1 ENROLL STUDENTS In order for a student to begin taking an online course, the student must be added to the course roster. This allows the student to participate in a course section with other students. Students may self-enroll or be enrolled by administrators. To enroll a student: 1. Under [Enrollment Management] on the main LMS page, select [Enroll Student] (see Figure 7-1). JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 7-1

41 8. ADMINISTRATION MANAGEMENT 8.1 UPLOAD A CLASS OR EVENT A class or event is used as a tool for training staff to facilitate the administration of course roster data. Classes or events are created so training staff can use the LMS as an online management system to enroll and record training completions. Training staff can enroll and track students in an area of knowledge. The content of the actual class or event is not delivered through the LMS; actual content is delivered at another location. Uploading a class or event consists of four JKO LMS web pages comprised of 12 steps. Each step has one or more entry fields for data: Nine steps are on the first web page One step is on the second web page Two steps are on the third web page Confirmation that the class or event has been uploaded is on the fourth page Each page must be completed before you can proceed to the next page. Mandatory fields within each step are identified in bold type and by asterisk (*). There are 23 mandatory fields in total, and these are spread across the 12 steps. If you don t complete something that is a mandatory field on page one, the page will jump to the section that needs completion when you try to submit the page. If you don t complete mandatory fields on pages two and three, the reason you can t submit the page will be located at the top of the page when you attempt to proceed. Prerequisites: Training staff is identified. Training Coordinators and Course Managers can upload an event or local class. Training staff names are entered into the appropriate LMS (NIPR, SIPR, or IP) after signing Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) with JKDDC JMO Knowledge Services. A numbering system for content is established (see Appendix B). Any required prerequisite classes or courses already exist in the LMS. If a Continuing Education Unit (CEU), Learning Points, or Credit Points are desired, the training staff should have this internal process established. Understand that reading this module while duplicating the process in the LMS may cause your session to time out. As the training staff grows familiar with the process it will get easier.

When students self-enroll into a course, a roster record is created in an available section of the course. It is the Training Coordinator s responsibility to ensure an active, available section exists for the course offering. Alternatively, Training Coordinators can train groups of individuals together by creating a section of a course in the LMS. All communication and student tracking for the course section is then isolated for that course section. Establishing course sections has several benefits: Trainers can establish a time period by which students must start and complete their self-paced WBT training. This is helpful if the web course is a prerequisite to a classroom (face-to-face) training session or an exercise. Trainers can more easily track student progress and offer prompts or assistance to those students who need it. JOINT KNOWLEDGE ONLINE 8-42

83 The courses must reside in the LMS. In order to enroll students in the course as a group, Training Coordinators or Course Managers must create a section for the course. This creates an online classroom that separates designated students from other students taking the course in other sections or accessing the course on their own. To create a course section: 1. From the [Desktop] screen, position the cursor over [Course Management] on the center menu bar. 2. Select [View Courses]. The [System Courses] screen appears (see Figure 8-40). 3.
