G'day Barry,

Yes and no

LAMS isn't launching the SCO but rather pointing to the URL where the LMS lanches the SCO. So effectively it looks like LAMS is launching it but it's actually the LMS.

Yep.

Correcto!

Yes.


I just did an example in the moodle.lamscommunity.org server. This is the server we have for demo for the LAMS2.0-Moodle 1.7+ integration. If you login in there (create an account if you don't already have one) and join the LAMS-Moodle Course, you will see a sequence called: LAMS Sequence with Embedded SCORM object. This is a very simple sequence that has a Noticeboard (to introduce it) and then a Share Resources tool that will load the Moodle SCORM Launcher in it. You can go and do your SCORM course on it, and the click on Finished when you are done.

Let me know if that all makes sense.

Thanks,

Ernie
