Abstract
The application of Information and Communication Technology in teaching is a relevant and functional
way of providing education to learners that will assist to inculcate the required capacity for the world of
work. Hence, Learning Management Systems are solutions built and integrated into education to
facilitate delivery of learning instructions to the learners. This study, therefore, explored undergraduates’
perception of the use of learning management system to study in Ilorin, Kwara state. University of Ilorin
was purposively selected as the target location because the institution has a dedicated learning
management system built to deliver one of her core courses for all 300 level students- GNS 312. The
questionnaire was utilized to obtain data from 100 undergraduates from five faculties in the University.
The findings revealed that most respondents had a positive perception of the usefulness and ease of use of
LMS to learn GNS 312 in University of Ilorin. The students also expressed satisfaction at this mode of
delivery of the lesson. The study concludes that undergraduates in Ilorin, Kwara State have a positive
perception of the utilization of LMS because they are satisfied with it. The study thereby recommended
that GNS 312 should remain on the platform of LMS because undergraduates see its usefulness; they find
it easy to use, learn effectively with it and are satisfied with it.
