I like JoomlaLMS but I am confused

[weechimpy]

Hi
First of all I like JoomlaLMS and I like the effort you have put into demos and tutorials.
THere is more capacity in it than I am looking. I have a few remaining questions

1) I have a knowledge base site based on joomla where all users are publishers.
Now would all user with publisher right be able to edit course in the LMS or can the LMS module set other access right levels?
2) Why do you have to host the LMS module, flash can I not by the module from you and host it myself?
3) Your tutorial says nothing about SCROn tracking can you tell me more about it


Many thanks

LMS component has access levels different from Joomla CMS access levels.
To create teachers you should manually grant teacher rights for users.

2) Why do you have to host the LMS module, flash can I not by the module from you and host it myself?

I guess you are speaking about Online WebConference module based on Flash streaming technology. FlashConference module required additional server software for using it - Adobe Flash Media Server. You can buy FMS hosting from us or from other FMS hosting-providers (i.e. influxis). But hosting this special software is very expensive.

3) Your tutorial says nothing about SCROn tracking can you tell me more about it

JoomlaLMS can track results from SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 packages.
To see this from teacher's interface, you should go to the Tracking-> click 'LPaths' header -> click magnifier icon near the necessary SCORM item.
I've attached example screenshot of SCORM2004 tracking page, you can see it here: http://www.joomlalms.com/tmp/scorm_track_ex.png
(Yoc can see overall user results, passed status, spent time and user responses for each question)

Thank you very much for your reply
So I can run quizzes using flash without having to host with you and using the conferencing facility (It is overkill for my need)?

Yes. FMS is used only for conference needs. You can run quizzes using flash (and other flash content) without Flash Conference module.
