This ongoing study examines affordances of two different Learning Management Systems (LMSs) and their effects on faculty and student satisfaction and the elements of the Community of Inquiry (Col): social presence, teaching presence, and cognitive presence (Garrison, Anderson & Archer, 2000). In this presentation, we shall share the initial results of the study. Although still ongoing, initial findings describe (a) faculty perceptions of different affordances of these tools leading to different support for effective and efficient teaching, (b) the effects of faculty tool use on student satisfaction and Col, and, (c) the effects of student satisfaction with the LMS on satisfaction with the course.
