Hi
I'm exploring ideas of how to automatically create some content based on an external database and import as a course or content area into Blackboard.
Kind of like a SCORM package but not SCORM -actual Blackboard content.
I was wondering if anyone had done something similar.
I'm thinking either
1. Download an existing course archive and edit that and re-import. A course import but created/edited outside of Blackboard
2. Use the REST APIs to send the content to the appropriate area/course
Has anyone done anything similar or got any suggestions. SCORM is the obvious way I guess but wondering what else is possible?
Thanks
Jason
This sounds like my understanding of course cartridge imports and exports, but I know very little about it. One of our instructors uses 2 instances of Blackboard (one for his day job and another for an adjunct position in his spare time). He told me at one point he used the course cartridge process. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable will chime in. One thing: it has to be enabled in the system tab, so you may not have access to it.
