Hi everyone. I am very new to the whole world of developing e-learning, so the answer to my question may seem pretty obvious to some of you. I have just started to use Articulate and have enjoyed developing some simple presentations. I will be using Moodle to host the content and I have become stuck trying to publish it. I can understand what I need to do to publish ,but I can't work out what file I should be uploading to Moodle. Hope this makes sense!
If you want track, you need to publish as scorm 1.2 (moodle is only partially scorm 2004 compliant, but is does work I have tried this morning)
You then need to zip your published file, it is best to use articulate, but if you want to zip yourself do not zip the published folder, highlight the files within the folder and choose zip.
This is because the manifest file needs to be in the root directory of the zip file
In moodle within the course you want to upload,
Choose add an activity
Choose scorm/aicc
Give the activity a name and description
Click choose or upload a file
upload your zip file
select choose (on right hand side) once the zip has uploaded (do not unzip your zip file)
Select your settings for tracking
I always set the stage size to 100% width and height
Open in new window
Allow window to be resized
I always diaable preview (as it makes my moodle hang)
OMG - thank you so much for such a prompt response. It all makes sense. Thank you. Just tried it but getting message "internet explorer cannot display the webpage" My internet is a bit temperamental at the moment, so hoping it is just that.
I have same problem of Lorna. I followed Phil's instruction, but the hangs anyway.
As I do not need to track the course (there will be a separate test for it) my solution was to an upload as follows:
Add resource
Link to file as web
Choose a file
etc.
Everything worked fine upload and course functionality, bu I have a new problem!!! When I try to update the resource after some changes in original project, always old project is displayed!!!
So now I have 2 problems: the first one is the hang of a course if I upload it as SCORM activity, the second is the update of a course uploaded as resource link to file as web.

Hi to everybody,

Any ideas?
Thanks for any help!
