File Sharing
You can publish a course for the web, upload the files to any web server, and then give folks the URL to the story.html file. That will let them view the published project.
- This method doesn't provide users to enter comments.
- This method won't track or save their progress. (Neither does Review 360.) That means they'll have to start from scratch if they exit before finishing.
If you want to track people completing the published course, publish it for an LMS.
Here's more info:
I'm going to show my naiveté and ask - what is a web server? Could you give me an example?
When you visit a given web site, its files are "served" to you from software and equipment that is linked to the internet. A link's address (aka universal resource locator, or URL) is based on the domain name. Companies typically have their own domains, such as articulate.com.
Big companies may have their own servers. But a lot of companies get a domain name and access to a web server by paying a company that provides those services. For example: A Small Orange, GoDaddy, etc.
Review 360 is part of Articulate's web server. Storyline and Rise are programmed to be able to publish files directly to that location.
As I said above, if you don't want to use Review 360, you'd have to upload a published course to another server.
I'm sure you can find more details by searching the web. I suggest you start with Wikipedia or TechTerms.com to focus on getting info (rather than sales pitches).
