Importing SCORM 12 ELearning Modules
I am using ATutor on a Linux Box, specs are as follows:
Apache 1.3+
PHP 4.3.9
MySQL 5.23.58
ATutor version 1.4.3
IE v.6.0+
I have made no changes to the default settings, as I am trying this LMS out for future deployment.
I have used Macromedia Captivate (previously RoboDemo) to generate SCORM compliant module/zip files with the IMS/SCORM manifest. ATutor uploads and inserts the module into the course and reads the manifest (the manifest displays in the Global Menu as designed in Captivate), however the content does not display. I get Java script variable errors from the browser such as, intIntervalSecs undefined.
None the less, I decided to upload the .swf file and embed the <object> into the course via the html editor, however the <embed src> or the <param value> tags are either incorrect or are not pointing to the swf file. I used the directory provided by the File Manager and all I get when I view the module is a blank screen or the browser times out.
So, I have two problems:
1) I cannot import SCORM modules from Macormedia Captivate or TurboDemo (Captivate was used for this explanation).
2) I cannot embed .swf files using the HTML editor into a course.
I am new to ATutor so if I am confused as to the process, I apologize. None the less, what am I doing wrong?
