Is anyone here developing courseware that takes advantage of SCORM 2004' sequencing capabilities?
If you are, what development tools are you using? Does it let you specify the rules, etc. or are you hand coding the manifest files?
We're looking at going in this direction at my company, but our preferred tool, Lectora, doesn't do this. And we've found no good way to create manifests other than something like Reload Editor or Notepad! This obviously isn't something that the general designer/developer population is able to do - and that's the problem.
Yes I know of a couple that are doing SCORM 2004. If you want feel free to email me at scase20@juno.com and I will get you in touch with them They can tell you about tools and such.I believe the tools they use are automatically doing the sequencing rules,, steve
It sounds that Lectora has not yet support SCORM 2004 with sequencing and navigation capability.
Here we use Wondershare PPT2Flash to delivery SCORM content with support of sequencing and navigation. You can download a demo version from their website and see how it is done.
Matt, I know we are schedule to talk, and look at SCORM 2004. I am not an expert, however what I believe is, it is not so much the development tool, but the platform. That is, using Lectora, but not building the course as one large SCO, but create each module of the course as a SCO, or each Module as multiple SCO's, and then loading all of those SCO's into a SCORM 2004 certified LMS (at ASTD Tech we learned there are only 8 in the world) you can do SCORM 2004 sequencing. It is all about the platform serving up the training, not the authoring tool. steve
