Without a doubt, the dominant educational technology in use today in most educational institutions is the Learning Management System (LMS) or Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). Despite repeated calls over the years by educators for the end of the one size fits all LMS/VLE, it has, like the institutions it serves, proved to be resilient and hard to break down. However, is this because the LMS is a "good enough" tool, or is it a result of "software sedimentation" that has resulted in enterprise process and structures being built around the LMS/VLE in such a way that alternatives become impossible to imagine, let alone implement.
