Create a SCORM package from a Microsoft LCDS course

Posted by on February 22, 2010 2 comments

I was looking at the stats of my blog, and some of the most visited articles are the ones about Microsoft LCDS. A lot of people are contacting me because they have trouble publishing the LCDS content to a learning management system (e.g. to the SharePoint Learning Kit). Tom Molskov already posted a very useful comment with a procedure on how to do this, but I thought it was time for a little screencast.

This is how I do it:

  1. Open your course in LCDS
  2. Click the Media button in the toolbar to open the Media folder
  3. In the Media window, go one level UP. This brings you in the Courses folder
  4. Select all files (Ctrl+A) and add them to  a compressed folder (.zip)
  5. Upload that zip file to your Learning Management System

SharePoint Log Reader

Tired of using Notepad to plough through your logs?

Tom just released a new version of his SharePoint Log Reader on Codeplex.

This nice utility allows you to browse through the SharePoint ULS log files in a more convenient way. Some of the features:

  • load multiple log files
  • advanced filtering
  • copy error message to clipboard
  • support for correlation ID (SharePoint 2010)

Have a look at this short demo movie.
