Rise Learning Journal / Notes
Hi Sam,
This is absolutely amazing. It is exactly what I need for my course. My question is, would it be possible to create this not for just one course but for many? I have 14 RISE courses (each is a lecture to me) in my online class. My LMS combines them into one course for me. I would love to have my students take each lecture with their notes and have them added to a course notebook at the end of all of my 14 lectures, so they have their own guide. Can you imagine that this would be possible at all?
Hi AmyGtt I'd need some more information on the structure before I can answer this, but will provide some information on how it does work.
The Learning Journal makes use of SCORM to store the notes, therefore, notes are associated with an individual SCORM package. For example, when you publish a Rise course to the SCORM specification.
It sounds like your LMS provides a means to group together a number of SCORM modules to present as a single course. In this instance, there would be individual notes for each of those SCORM modules. Notes taken in SCORM module X would not be available in SCORM module Y. The reason being, the data is not shareable in SCORM. SCORM does not provide a means to share data between modules and they are only self aware.
We will be looking at ways this could be enhanced in future to support accessing data across different modules, but this would require a 3rd party database, which would incur costs.
We're keeping it simple for this first iteration.
I'm looking forward to releasing the BETA later this month. I'll let you know when it is available.
ok, thank you very much for the reply.
