Embedding Rise 360 Course into Blackboard Instead of Uploading it as a SCORM package

Hi Robert,

You have lots of questions, so here's some thoughts that might be helpful:

• If your course is too big to upload, you might break it into pieces, or look for large elements that can be condensed, such as video. You might re-encode your video into a lower resolution to reduce the file size. Also, 50 MB doesn't seem very big, in my impression. You might see if you or admins can request that Blackboard increase the file size limitation.
• Yes, if you make changes in Articulate, it is not linked to the SCORM file that you already uploaded to Blackboard. You will need to re-publish the SCORM file, and re-upload the SCORM file to overwrite the old one. Storyline is the editor and the SCORM file is the finish product. It's like having a Word document and a printed document. If you want changes to the printed document, you have to make the changes in Word and re-print the document. :)
• You can deploy a course on something other than an LMS, such as Google Cloud. In that sense, you are publishing it as a website, using the Web publish feature. You can then obtain a public URL to embed into a website, or into a link within Blackboard. Keep in mind, however, that publishing as a website allows the user to use the module and interact with it, but you lose the SCORM features of tracking and recording the user's interactions.
