To be candid, I'm an urban farmer. Just so happens the urban farming model we've developed has gone viral and now we have 500+ people across 20+ countries wanting to start a branch of our non-profit organization.
We see Articulate as a crucial tool to help us take our content and transform it into a stunning design! Yet, we're not 100% on how to decide which LMS to use.
We do know the LMS needs to:
Plug-in with Wordpress
Accept either AICC, SCORM 1.2, etc.
Be low cost since we're boot strapping this
But other than those constraints, what criteria might we use to evaluate the right LMS? Does anyone have any preferred systems? If so, why?
Thanks everyone! I spoke with the folks at Uncanny Owl and LearnDash, neither organization has tested out integrating Articulate's Rise with their LMS platform. Has anyone tested out their courses from RIse on their LMS Platform? Would love to hear feedback on challenges/successes!
Be sure to go with a vendor whose product works well with and is designed to handle Articluate-based files/content. We recently moved one of our non-credit courses to our university's other, newer LMS, Canvas, and have had continual headaches.
My testing prior to the move didn't reveal any issues. But once the course was running, we gradually started encountering problems, like Studio 13 content suddenly not loading, then loading fine, then not loading. (Studio 09 content loads fine.) Yesterday, we discovered some embedded images in Engage activities weren't displaying in Canvas, even though they were displaying fine everywhere else, including on a different LMS.
We've also run into issues with how Canvas displays the content (too small) and its horrible SCORM functionality.
I've come to the conclusion that Canvas and Articulate products don't work well together.
