MSU’s mainstream online learning management systems have come and gone, from ANGEL to Moodle and now Desire2Learn, but for about 20 years, LearningOnline Network with Computer-Assisted Personalized Approach, or LON-CAPA, has remained almost untouched and is used by professors and students across campus. LON-CAPA was first developed at MSU and used mostly in science and math courses, but the system has spread to various classes and to other universities, colleges and high schools. Gerd Kortemeyer, director of the LON-CAPA project and associate professor of physics in Lyman Briggs College, said LON-CAPA is used mostly in advanced or specialized courses, such as physics, statistics or art history.
