Which LMS do you use and why?

Hey all, Just a quick question to you....what LMS do you use and why?  I use Moodle 2.1.2 currently.  Why?  It seemed like a good idea at the time!  Now I'm frustrated with the SCORM reporting...

Oracle with the OLM module installed for us.

We started with Moodle, but as our company moved across to Oracle HR, keeping all records in one place made sense, hence the swap to OLM.

We do need to adjust a couple of .xsd files from the Articulate published SCORM content, but then it plays and tracks smoothly.


Hello,

Aren't I glad I logged in the community today!! I might just communicate with Paul Westlake further, who might be my saving grace. We use OLM and what a nightmare!! Articulate works perfect out of the LMS and as soon as we import into the OLM then the nightmare begins. Assessments would in fact not even import because it complains about missing the imsmanifest file.

We have had both Articulate guys and Oracle come onsite to see what the issues are but have not found any solutions to this day. This has been going on for 3 years since I joined the company.

This was implemented long before I came and they are not getting rid of it because apparently a lot of money was invested in it. So far investing in Quizmaker specifically has not been the greatest ROI, however the rest of the studio is very much in use.

I would really appreciate it if you could guide me as to where in the XSD do you make the adjustments and which XSD specifically. And if anyone has any light as to why OLM is complaining about not finding the imsmanifest file.

Thank you for the discussion; I have really learnt a lot - and wish we had the option of another LMS.

Ciao,

Makhotso,

Could you take me through how you are importing your content - I will then see how I can help.

I am sure we can sort something out... You are exporting from Articulate using SCORM 1.2 yes?


Yes, I publish to LMS and make sure the output option is SCORM 1.2. I also make sure to click the Reporting and Tracking button just to make sure that all eLearning options are correct with the LMS Report status set to Passed/Failed.

Then in OLM I select SCORM 1.2 Content Aggregation under specifications as that is the only option for SCORM. I leave the Tracking Type option to Automatic. After all the settings, then I select the zipped file to upload, and that is when it complains about the imsmanifest file.

I would appreciate all your help, thank you.
