| * We are developing a platform for instructors to prepare course materials, using a large library of pre-prepared materials from Thieme. We will allow for easy export of materials prepared on our platform to an institution’s learning management system (LMS) for the instructors who have such a system. For the instructors who do not have LMS at their institution, we will provide LMS functions on our site. The purpose of this questionnaire is to establish what LMS functions we should provide at first launch of our platform. Thank you for agreeing to fill out this questionnaire.
