Transitioning from One Learning Management System (LMS) to Another

Florence Kizza, writing for The Greentree Gazette explores why three different campuses chose to take on the big task of selecting and transitioning to a new campus-wide learning management system:

Renee Aitken, John Primo and Chip Stoll helped me see the matter from their viewpoints. As a newly hired director of the Center of Instructional Technology and e-learning at Ohio Dominican University in 2005, Renee was told that the LMS in their use would no longer be supported. John Primo looked forward to Rose State’s LMS purchase as a consortium deal to maximize purchasing power. And Chip Stoll began to look at other LMS options when the system they were using was acquired by another company.
