Abstract

Course management systems (CMSs) have now become firmly embedded into pre-service teacher education courses in many universities around the world to support teaching and learning. This chapter investigates some of the features of CMSs and how they are being used. In investigating the use of CMSs, some of the theories/models that underpin online and blended learning including social presence, community of practice (CoP), and constructivism are investigated. Some of the key themes that are discussed in this chapter include blended and flipped learning and the use of analytics. Contemporary spaces such as Facebook and Google Classroom are also investigated.
