Heavy modules
Feb 01, 2018

Hello friends.
My name is Marco and I am an instructional designer. Previously I developed courses in Adobe Flash, when there was a course that was very large i divided it into modules. A master swf file "m0.swf" that works as an index, this swf contains the dashboard with the buttons to open each module separately "m1.swf" "m2.swf" etc. The master swf file saved the scorm record for each module. Does anyone know how to distribute a course that is too heavy to be loaded by the LMS in Storyline 360? Any alternative will be well received.

Hi Marco. Unfortunately, I don't have any personal experience with this situation, nor do I have a suggested method for doing what you need. But it's quite possible someone else in the community has developed a similar workaround in Storyline. Hopefully other folks will chime in with their suggestions for you!
Marco - does your LMS have curriculum development features? if so, can you load the main module .story that contains just the links to the individual modules? Each of the modules will be loaded as if they were a separate courses in the LMS. The LMS , via the curriculum development path, would link all of the modules as if they were one course. The last module would link to any assessment that you might need. My logic may be off but this might be one approach depending upon your LMS.
Hi Trina, thanks for take the time to answer.
Best regards!
Hi David. Thanks for taking the time to answer, Actually your logic is correct, but i need to check if the LMS have this option that you refer "curriculum development path" to connect the different modules by a link in the master .story
Hi Marco,
In case that you're LMS does not have "curriculum development path" feature. You can upload it per module.
Usually LMS has this "trigger or action" feature once you complete a course. You can use it to link to a post-survey, to a quiz or to the next module that you want your learners to take.
Hope this helps.
