Abstract
The article highlights the significance of Learning
Management Systems (LMS) for Ukrainian universities. The
adoption of Moodle — an open source platform — is used
in a global comparison of the current deployment of course
management technology in higher education in Ukraine, in
its neighbors in the EU and the CIS, and in the major world
regions. The distribution of Moodle sites among Ukrainian
user types is also presented. The article summarizes the
benefits and increasing necessity of educational management
technology and stresses the importance of an accompanying
commitment of resources to faculty development in order to
achieve a more effective educational environment in Ukraine.
