VLE v LMS; SCORM v TinCan

Hi there

These might be dumb questions, but I'll risk it...is a VLE the same as an LMS when it comes to uploading a course made with RISE? And if I export my course as both a SCORM package and a TinCan etc package, will it look and work the same if uploaded to a VLE or LMS? Should I be aware of any massive pitfalls in all this?

I'm a teacher, so I have built a course, but am struggling a little with how to deliver it to potential clients. Thanks for any advice!

  • Hi Eveline, 

    From the articles that I've read online, it appears that a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is the same as a Learning Management System (LMS).

    If your Virtual Learning Environment is SCORM Compliant, then it should have no trouble hosting SCORM or TinCan packages created using Rise 360. 

    Hope this helps!
