Abstract

The research paper explores ProgMagus LMS, an open-source Learning Management System adapted for instructors in Computer Science, specifically focusing on Python Programming language. ProgMagus LMS focuses on simplicity and ease of use. This research paper investigates how the platform addresses challenges related to complexity, lack of functionalities, and high costs, offering valuable insights into effective course management the field of Computer Science and Python Programming. With the evolution on Learning Management Systems, the aim has been towards the subjects that are getting more popular, like Python Programming Language. Most of the popular Learning Management Systems do not aim to include coding or any support to code in their platform, which does not give the opportunity to those who want to improve their coding skills. The aim of this research paper is to focus on instructors and their ease to manage content about Python Programming Language and provide practice to their students or users and to provide a solution to the problem of Modern Learning Management Systems that face high cost, complexity and lack of functionalities. Evaluation conducted to students to use ProgMagus LMS to determine if it is an efficient software to use for Python programming language and intro courses of Computer Science.
