The Role of Education Management Information Systems in Enhancing Academic Performance: A Systematic Review

Abstract

The integration of information technology in educational institutions has grown rapidly due to its proven efficiency and effectiveness in administrative and academic functions. Learning and Education Management Information Systems (LEMIS) provide administrators and teachers with essential data to support planning, policy-making, and evaluation. However, the successful implementation of these technologies depends on the availability of qualified teachers who possess the skills to integrate technology into teaching and learning processes. In this context, this systematic review aims to examine how LEMIS enhances teachers’ instructional practices and improves students’ academic achievement. For this purpose, a comprehensive review of peer-reviewed literature published between 2000 and 2024 was conducted using databases such as ERIC, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar. A total of 11 relevant studies meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected for analysis. The review indicates that LEMIS supports teacher development through technology-driven lesson design, assessment, and feedback while improving student performance through learning analytics and interactive platforms. However, the findings also highlight the importance of teacher training and institutional readiness to maximize its effectiveness. Future research should focus on developing standardized frameworks for the effective integration of LEMIS into teaching and administrative practices.
