All of the criteria of seniors lecturers have been identified who at aged 60 years and above. From the study, most of all features in KUIS LMS are not user-friendly for senior lecturers because they always forget and need coaching by others every time they use LMS. So, this report will provide the information about KUIS LMS, data, findings and analysis of the usability evaluation, the usability problems, the experience of using LMS by senior lecturers and the suggestion from senior lecturers.
