Abstract

The book chapter explores the integration of learning management systems and course/module software in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics learning and 21st-century skills in Zimbabwe's higher education. The chapter introduces the concepts of STEM and their importance for developing the skills needed for success in the 21st century. It presents an overview of the implementation of learning management systems and course/module software in the Zimbabwean higher education system. The potential benefits of these technologies for STEM are highlighted. In this chapter, it is argued that the integration of information and communication technology in the teaching of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics plays a crucial role in addressing quality-related issues. Finally, the chapter presents case studies of higher education institutions in Zimbabwe that have successfully implemented learning management systems and course/module software and describes the positive effects on student learning.
