best e-learning plug-in??

  • Hi I really need some help please.

    I have an opportunity to caret an e-learning course for a large organisation and want to use WP. There seem to be several different plug-ins but I’m finding it confusing and hard to find any real examples sod courses created using them. We currently use Articulate but I want to use WP for it’s ease of use, and plug in availability. Can some one recommend a plug-in that will do everything I need please?

    – create courses that feature drag and drops etc, multi-chopice quizzes and everything you’d expect from an elearning course
    – SCORM compliancy
    – compatibility with a responsive theme

    Thanks, I really appreciate any help

  • Hi tuftyone

    We decided to do some investigations into the use of WP for creating specific multi-device online learning platforms a few months back. We looked at both themes and plug-ins and finally chose LearnDash.

    You can, of course, continue to use Articulate (we use iSpring which I guess you know is pretty similar) to create learning resources to use within the LearnDash system.

    You can see a simple demo site which we are creating at:

    Hi Colin, thanks for this; it looks really good.
    My client is a big sports academy who have there own LMS. do you think this will plug into it so they can monitor usage etc? sorry not my strong point. is this SCORM?

    THANKS

    Hi tuftyone

    LearnDash uses Tin Can which is going to supersede SCORM. The extra info you provide suggests you plan to use WP to create learning resources (instead of using Articulate?). LearnDash is essentially an LMS – so you wouldn’t plug LearnDash into your client’s LMS.

    I’d need to know which of the 600+ LMSs out there your client was using to be able to suggest an approach that might allow you to use WP in some form.

    You would then also have to use something like Wax LRS in order to be able to share data with the client’s LMS.

    So, unless your client is using a pretty ‘naf’ LMS, and there are plenty out there that look great before purchase and are a pig to work with after, you ought to be able to do the best job using Articulate.

    Hope that helps

    Colin
