1: New LAMS Building Block for Blackboard 9.1

Fellas,

We've now finished work on a newer version of the LAMS integration with Blackboard.

This new LAMS Building Block (v 1.2) has a new important feature: gradebook integration. This means that when you finished a LAMS lesson, the Blackboard Grade Center now shows that you have completed this activity.

The big advantage here is that now grading is centralized and also you can use Blackboard features like "Adaptive release" (ie: when a user completes this LAMS lesson, then show this other activity/lesson).

Here's where you can get further details for this new Building Block and download:

There's plenty of demos/tutorials in there.

And if you need help, please just ask here in the forum.

Thanks,

Ernie

PS: Big kudos for Andrey Balan for his work on this.
