Ok, here's what I found out from testing some items in SL to systematically determine a estimated duration for learners to complete a module.
1) A few preconditions:
- All the content is completed for your course (i.e., you are not adding any other content)
- Remove all course content that is not going to be used in the final module (i.e., scenes, slides, question banks, and questions).
2)Determine the Estimated Module Duration
- Open the SL file which you want to determine the total time
- Select "publish" (see attachment)
- Click the box to right of title input box that has "…"
- The estimated duration is provided on the pop-up window toward the bottom right of the pop-up window.
NOTE:
- Timelines on layers are not included in the duration
- If you use a question from a question bank in more than one quiz, it's time is only included once
- Quiz placeholder slides do not have a timeline
