Publishing Storyline to CD
Good morning Sarah,
Not a problem, I completely understand. I wasn't sure if this was a one-time exception for a student that didn't have access. I can certainly see how you would want to be able to provide access to the material for all students.
- Also, will my student need the Storyline program on their computer to 'play' the lesson?
No, the students will not need Storyline to launch the course from CD. The only time they would need the software is if they were going to edit the content and I don't think that's what you have in mind
They'll need to have a CD ROM to launch the course, they won't actually be launching the course through Storyline, itself.
- Now, what file do I exactly burn to the CD?
First, you'll need to publish for CD, but to your hard drive. You might want to try publishing to your desktop, just to be sure that you're able to easily find the files you want to put onto the CD. A folder will be created on your desktop (or whatever directory you choose). If you open the folder you'll see something like this:
This is the content you'll want to burn to CD - not the first folder. Depending on your operating system and your CD drive, you may not need to use a third-party program to burn to CD. Select all of the contents in the folder (you can easily do this by using the shortcut "CTRL+A") and right-click on the selected files. There may be an option similar to "Sent to...". Look and see if CD is an option. If it is, and you have a blank CD in your drive, it should copy the content over to the CD for you.
Now, if you don't see an option like I mentioned above, you may need to download and install a CD burning program. A quick Google search on CD Burning Software should give you a lot of options :)
I hope I was able to answer your questions. However, if you need any other information, please let us know!
Have a great day Sarah,
Christine
