The Impact of Using Blackboard on Student’s Grades

Abstract

The Learning Management System (LMS) is a core system that contributes to support e-learning, manage content, provide learning tools, and facilitate communication between students and teachers. This project aims to measure the impact of Blackboard-based e-learning use. We measure the effect of blackboard use on male students by comparing male and female students’ degrees of online learning (online class preparation) and traditional (face-to-face) learning at Qassim University, using statistical methods and data mining algorithms. We also develop A supportive tool that helps teachers manage some important tasks such as (student attendance, interaction, grades … etc.). This tool will take student information and push automatic notifications to all concerned people via SMS.
