JorumOpen Testing Begins May 27, 2010
Posted by vickimcgarvey in : Comms , trackbackI have finally managed to get JorumOpen implemented on our development system we just need to get the harvesting switched on. This has really illustrated how effective our working collaboratively with our vendors Desire2Learn has worked and I would like to thank Yvonne Monterroso for guiding us through this and to, also, mention how useful Elluminate has been in this activity. I set-up JorumOpen using a recorded Elluminate demo together with Learning Repository guidance.
I think it has been a useful exercise as it helped us to get a better understanding of harvesting. Initially, I don’t think we were all fully aware that harvesting was importing metadata records into a our learning repository, so we have to set- up harvest and import intervals for this together with the number of records we want to import at each time and timeouts. I think we thought is was a bit like our Merlot which allow the user to search and retrieve links directly to content within Merlot, but this repository is fully integrated in the VLE. We are all a little bit more knowledgeable now.
