Different Platforms of the Learning Management System?

 Schoology - provides assistance to school systems, with a concentration on K–12
institutions and advice for both parents and teachers. Similar to Facebook, the
Schoology environment offers more educational features like online class tests, tests,
quizzes, and homework.
 Edmodo - is possible to design courses with a strong emphasis on equipping
students with excellent communication capabilities so they can participate. In
addition, parents have access to evaluations, and their opinions are highly valued.
 WizIQ - can design attractively themed courses that draw students in with
multimedia lessons. Numerous assessment styles can assist teachers in determining
how well their students are assimilating the material. It's a system that benefits both
businesses wishing to train their personnel and educators who are also entrepreneurs.
 Sakai - enables the creation of courses using modules where text, tests, videos, and
other resources can be stored. Additionally, it emphasizes encouraging dialogue and
teamwork between instructors and students. Additionally, grading and assessments
are considered, and Sakai enables teachers to provide detailed comments on
assignments.
 Kadenze - is a tier-shaped membership model, however, may have an impact on
how students receive comments on their work. Even more intriguing is the fact that
some Kadenze college-level courses will actually grant students college credit. Their
affiliated colleges that offer these courses may attest to it.
