The design goals for CAPE/eLMS were to provide a platform that was consistent withprinciples of the “How People Learn” framework, particularly more frequent and usefulfeedback to students than is often provided on traditional homework. At the same time, thesystem provides information to instructors on students’ frequent errors, relieves the need tospend time on grading, and can provide practice on topics that are not easily done with pencil-and-paper assignments. The CAPE/eLMS system has
