Edubridgebd: A robust and intelligent distant learning management system with evaluation.

Abstract

In recent years, online learning has grown tremendously, serving as both an alternative and a complementary option to traditional, face-to-face education. This growth is driven after outbreak of COVID-19 in part by students' active engagement with technology, often using it more extensively than they feel required to. Online learning's increased popularity is largely due to its flexibility compared to traditional educational environments. To support online learning, various platforms, such as learning management systems (LMSs), edtech products have emerged. The use of LMSs has surged recently, thanks to the integration of information and communication technologies as educational support tools. Despite the advantages of online learning, instructors face certain challenges, notably the difficulty of tracking the progress and activities of potentially larger cohorts and providing timely feedback to them. Edubridgebd is an innovative e-learning management system designed to follow the progress and activities of students and to offer a customizable platform aimed at improving student performance analysis and providing personalized feedback using modern educational tools and an interactive chatbot for answering quires. This platform aims to enhance access to quality education, enable educators to share their knowledge effectively, and empower learners to progress at their own pace while receiving tailored suggestions for improvement. Edubridgebd contributes to the overall development of the education sector in Bangladesh by leveraging technology to bridge educational gaps and foster continuous learning and improvement.
