Information Technology (IT) has progressively transformed the education sector, reshaping the way knowledgeisdelivered,accessed, and managed. Among the diverse digital tools available, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) andLearningManagement Systems (LMS) have emerged as two of the most influential innovations. This review paper synthesizes prior researchonthe role of IT in education, with a particular focus on MOOCs and LMS, highlighting their contributions, limitations, andfuturepotential.The review draws upon scholarly contributions from established databases to analyze how MOOCs and LMS have addressedlong-standing educational challenges. MOOCs have extended opportunities for large-scale participation and flexible learningat minimalcost,while LMS platforms have enabled structured course management, performance tracking, and personalized learning pathways. Together,these tools reflect a broader shift toward scalable, accessible, and student-centered education. However, persistent challengessuchasuneven digital infrastructure, low course completion rates, limited faculty readiness, and concerns about data privacy remainbarrierstoeffective-adoption. By comparing the features, benefits, and limitations of MOOCs and LMS, this paper identifies key gaps in existingliteratureandproposes directions for future research. The findings suggest that the integration of MOOCs and LMS, coupled withadvancementsinanalytics and blended learning models, holds promise for addressing equity, efficiency, and quality in digital education.Keywords: Education Technology, MOOCs, Learning Management Systems, E-Learning, ICT in Education, Digital LearningPlatforms.
