[Xerte] Re: Selling xerte to colleagues

[Alistair McNaught]

I haven't done a lot with CourseLab but I have seen it demonstrated several times and from what I saw, the accessibility wasn't as good as it is in toolkits. I could do with doing a bit more testing though in order to give definitive answers. I just don't have time at this precise moment!

Subject: [Xerte] Selling xerte to colleagues

I have an academic colleague who currently uses CourseLab - I was telling him about xerte and he raised the following points if anyone could comment (I know can output as SCORM but not familiar enough with xerte on the other point):

What I would need from such an authoring tool:
- SCORM-compatibility
- wide interactivity through programming, preferably Javascript, to allow randomised assessment with automatically generated parameters/variables.

Thanks

Nick
