Technological enhanced teaching through learning management systems (LMS) have become a potential interface for handling course registration, assigning students, their subject group, managing course contents and assessing students. Many Higher Educational Institutions across the country are still dependent on classroom teaching for covering the syllabus. A lot of effort is put in by the faculties to handle/manage, save and reuse the study material for repeating the topics of a particular course in next semester. This system bridges the gap between the student and the teacher to interact outside the classrooms as well. The efficient use of ICT in education is in high demands now to improve the quality of education in higher educational institutions. Thus, LMS serves to be one of the useful technological tools for the engineering graduates. Implementing different learning techniques, pedagogy and assessments strategies could be very challenging. More opportunities are provided to the teachers and the students to learn or assess their work through LMS. This study gives an overview about the use of innovative teaching, learning and evaluation techniques applied for the first year engineering undergraduate learners that can be adapted in an online or hybrid mode for understanding. With this intention, we have used customized Moodle based LMS for our engineering institution. LMS portal helps the faculties to upload the course contents, youtube video links, e-books, quizzes and assignments, which is accessible to the students anytime throughout their semester from anywhere. After various activities performed through LMS, it is observed that LMS helps in strengthening the learning process and motivates them thus showing a positive impact on achievement.
