Hi there,

I have just subscribed to the list. I have been working on developing online materials for a JISC funded project (Research Data Training -  MANTRA). The content we create will be uploaded to our VLE (WebCT) to be used by our post graduate research students and research staff for research data management training, and will also be available from Jorum. I have suggested to use XOT and we have managed to persuade our technical officer to install Xerte on the EDINA server. 

I've found the tools quite intuitive to use and managed to develop some content straight away. However, we are having some problems (in my opinion due to our access rights to the material installed on the server). For example, the export function is not working although pop-ups are allowed.  I have watched the video for exporting content on the YouTube which seems quite straight forward but when we select content and try to export it nothing happens. Also, we cannot access any templates other than the standard template that is available to create LOs. I guess we should be able to access them on our server? 

Tthe only tutorial I've found on the site was out of date (written for an earlier version). TechDis presentations were helpful but mainly for the basics. I see that the training session in Bath was very good. I wonder if there are any presentations or documents used in the training session that I could access?

Many thanks
Cuna

Very well thanks, 38 delegates from 15-odd institutions, quite a few of which have their own installations of the toolkits. Lots of good learning objects in the process of being created and shared, some searching questions, lots of hands-on and demos - think Ron earned his crust today ;-)

Some dialogue and questions here:
