Information Technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Information Technology of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Rajarata University of Sri Lanka, conducted an online training programme on the effective use of the Learning Management System (LMS) for first-year, first-semester students of the faculty on 21 July 2026.
The training programme was conducted under the supervision of Prof. D.S.W. Gunawardane, Head of the Department of Information Technology, with the objective of familiarizing newly enrolled students with the essential features and academic functions of the University\u2019s LMS. The programme was facilitated by the resource persons from the Department of Information
Technology, R.A.D.P Rajapaksha, A Sharanjah, and W.A.M.D Madusanka Bandara, who provided students with practical guidance on using the LMS effectively for their academic activities. As the 2024\/2025 academic first-year, first-semester students are engaged in their academic activities through an online learning mode, having a sound understanding of the LMS is
particularly important for their successful participation in the teaching and learning process. Therefore, the training programme was designed to provide students with the essential knowledge and practical skills required to navigate and utilize the LMS confidently in their day-to-day academic work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the session, students were guided on how to access and review lecture notes, learning materials, and other academic resources uploaded by lecturers through the LMS. They were also introduced to the procedures for submitting assignments and using other essential LMS facilities that support online learning and academic communication. The programme provided a valuable opportunity for students to become familiar with the University\u2019s digital learning environment from the beginning of their university education. The practical guidance provided during the session is expected to help students engage more
effectively with online learning activities and make productive use of the LMS throughout their academic journey.
The Department of Information Technology remains committed to supporting students in developing the digital competencies required for successful university education and ensuring that they are well equipped to engage with technology-enabled learning environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
