I'm new to e-learning so apologies if this is a silly question. Can variables pull from an LMS profile? Example... in a series of modules, would the user have to input their name at the beginning of each to personalize, or can is there a setting to pull from an LMS field? Thanks.
Great question, and the answer is yes this can be done. Take a look at this thread - super hero Phil Mayor includes a .story file with a slide that does exactly what you're looking to do: http://community.articulate.com/forums/t/15117.aspx
Yes, was just re-reading the thread, and there are a couple of helpful responses (if you scroll down through it) that explain how to just pull the user's first name if you don't need the whole name. I've used this with our LMS and it works well!
