With the rapid development of computer science, today many universities in their academic departments are using various educational software systems to provide class-related resources, manage the learning activities, and organize the contents of courses. Although these software systems vary widely, the most needed one has tended to be the learning management system. Learning management systems have gained popularity in recent years in conducting online academic programs more commonly to develop and support off-campus education. Learning management systems make it easier for students and teachers to share resources and communicate with each other. As technology influx has expanded alternatives for educational software solutions in distance education organizations, the need for usability testing for learning management systems has increased for better learning experience. This study determined to measure how students perceive the usability of a cloud-based learning management system that is widely used by students and faculty members in many universities.

Every new development in the field of software engineering opens new possibilities for education practices and engenders new opportunities for learning environments. In the world of rapidly developing information technology, cloud computing has given new directions to the structures of traditional learning management systems. Today online learning, as a form of distance learning or e-learning, has developed the capacity of organizations to reach more students than in a traditional classroom setting via scalable online services mainly thanks to cloud-based software solutions. Moreover, organizations have become more equipped with the help of sharing resources and gained enrichment by avoiding large expenditure on hardware and software for the required learning management systems. This work-in-progress study tries to analyze and summarize some trending features directly related with cloud-based learning management systems.
