The pandemic of COVID-19 resulted in the closure of universities and colleges worldwide, making the Learning Management System (LMS) an ideal approach for delivering education. Online LMS can provide a smooth communication channel between teachers and students. The LMS should be designed in such a way that it can address the challenges of distance learning while also assisting communities in learning during lockdowns. A LMS can be described as an online education hub that includes a comprehensive collection of educational activities such as classroom instruction and distance education. This paper will discuss the usability of LMS that focus on interactivity and efficiency among two LMS, blackboard and moodle. Primary data was collected from 87 learners, all of whom were university students at Bath Spa University RAK, through a questionnaire. The collected data was sorted and organized through SPSS. The paired t-testing was applied with a 95% interval level that compares the p-value with 0.05 to evaluate if the efficiency and interactivity of moodle and blackboard are the same. According to the result, it was concluded that they're not the same in terms of efficiency and interactivity. With the experiment results, we found that moodle is more efficient and interactive than blackboard for Bath Spa University academic center RAK students.
