Looking for a SCORM Player or LMS to run Captivate SCORM content (in place of Blackboard 9.1)

Greetings,

Background:

We are trying to run Captivate produced SCORM 1.2 in Blackboard 9.1 and are running into several problems (See http://discussions.blackboard.com/forums/p/49773/152443.aspx Please post any solutions to the problems described in that thread in that thread rather than here).

One of the options we are considering is playing and tracking our SCORM content in a separte LMS or with a different SCORM player.

The question:

Can anybody recommend any (ideally free) LMS or SCORM players that have been tested to work with Captivate CS5?

Many thanks for your help.

Andrew Downes

If you're talking open-source LMS (free) then Moodle is the best I've come across.

I've used it several times with my Captivate e-learning and had good results.

Thanks, that's helpful. Moodle looks like an option then; the challenge will be finding a way to integrate the Moodle SCORM player with Blackboard.

What other LMSs or SCOPRM players are people using successfully (or unsucessfully) with Captivate? is anybody else using Moodle?

I'm espeically keen to hear from anybody who has found a free SCORM player and integrated it with their LMS/VLE and got it to play and track captivate content well. Has anybody tried integrating the Reload player with thier LMS and running a Captivate SCORM?

Thanks.

If all you're after is a better SCORM player, investigate Rustici Software.

They make the SCORM player that's used in quite a few LMSs.  Maybe they've got one that's compatible with Blackboard.
