Publishing for offline use?

Sounds like publishing the course for CD and allowing the student to take the course offline is your best option,recommended you read as we don't yet have the ability for a student to take a course offline, and then upload the results once they are connected to the internet. But allowing them to print their results is really easy. You'll just need to enable the option in your result slide:

Hi Helen,

thanks for your quick reply. Sorry, I don't think I was clear with my question or I haven't quite understood your response. I can publish to CD, but as this is going to be sold, there doesn't seem to be any way of stopping someone duplicating and forwarding any or all of the included files as they are all there in the folders. My courses will include a lot of original work and I wondered if there was a way of protecting the content.

Cheers

Helena

Sounds like you're talking about wrapping it all up in to a single executable file.

Great idea - no idea how you do that though.

Sorry, useless reply, I know

Thanks Glen,

Not useiess at all. At least I know what to ask for now, instead of my waffly previous explanation.

cheers

That's ok then

I've had a quick look online and there's plenty of tools out there that package installers in to .exe files, but I haven't found anything yet that relates to eLearning.

One additional thought though, how about turning the output folder in to a hidden folder on the CD and provide a shortcut on the main folder to the Launch_Story.exe file?

Wow, good thinking Batman! Is it straightforward to do that?

really grateful for the ideas!

Helena

I've just seen how to do this, I will let you know if it works!

thank you again Glenn!

Yep, that works! 

Thank you so much!

Helena
