SAIT

List of Courses

This client has the following courses produced by ICOM:

Unique Functionality of Courses

• course is to track and resume frame bookmarking regardless of completion using films ini "useFrameBookmarkingOnCompleted"
• Knowledge checks are set as "Lesson" lesson type so that even they can be resumed though the lessons and interface has unique code to apply it's own unique lock over the next and previous buttons and the vcr, that unlocks on last frame.
• If exit button used, user will always resume on frame they left off, regardless of lesson or course completion
• Index.html contains unique code to close TRACCESS window window.opener=self; window.close();
• D2L launches the course in an IFRAME and because of this, the user may not use our exit button since it really wont do anything to "close" the course and thus try clicking elsewhere or close IE entirely, oddly this doesn't trigger our index.html unload even to lmsFinish and commit data to LMS thus causing the possible occurrence that cmi.core.exit=suspend doesn't get sent to LMS and thus on relaunch the progress is wiped. Code has been added to set this and commit right after lms initialized.
• Client needs the ID/names of the lessons to reflect the lesson names in the course so they need to be had modified in the structure.xml with the restrictions of
  • Letters and Numbers no other characters
  • Separated by '_' no spaces
  • The name is limited to 255 characters
  • Be aware of duplicate names and add a number at the end as each ID/name is to be unique
  • EXAMPLE. knowledge check == knowledge_check_1

Build Process

• Use Course builder for SAIT found here Z:\Old\Projects\SAIT\_course builder
• Upon creating new course in a folder it will extract necessary interface and title templates here "_source templates" to change titles for course.
• The package has the popup page index.html page already and wont be overwritten upon SCORM 1.2 export, and will replace #COURSENAME# in "Welcome to SAIT's #COURSENAME#" with the course name given in course builder.
• The Films_ini.txt already has the required settings for SAIT.
• Previewing the course before QA3 will prompt error and ask for name, you can click "Ok" and put in your name to watch it.
• Upload the course to QA3, as a new course
• The course will popup twice by default, just confirm the name on the base popup has the correct course name.
• Launch each lesson and make sure there isn't 2 arrows pointing to 2 lessons that would indicate duplicate ID's. An error should be thrown at the start of the course if there are ID's with incorrect characters or spaces.
