Course Lab Information

CourseLab creates folders and files depending on the course structure specified by author and copies all necessary files (such as CourseLab templates, object descriptors, images, media) into created folders. Additionally, CourseLab creates files with design information on your course. Usually, there is no reason to explore contents of course folder - CourseLab manages all these folders and files automatically. In fact, the only file you need to address is the one with .wcl extension - it contains basic course structure and can be used for quick launch of course editing (just double-click on it's icon). Which files should I copy to edit my e-learning course with CourseLab software installed on another computer? To transfer course editing process to CourseLab installed on another computer, move the full course folder there. All the necessary files are located in this folder. Then double-click on .wcl file's icon to launch CourseLab, or open the course through CourseLab "File - Open" menu. Is it possible for two or more authors to edit the same e-learning course simultaneously (supposed it is placed in shared folder)? No. Desktop versions of CourseLab do not support simultaneous editing. If you do that, then Object ID conflicts could arise and errors may occur. Besides, the concurrent file saves could lead to course data loss. The only option for several authors is to edit the same course in a time-shared manner. However, we have another product called CourseLab Teamwork that allows for collaborative web-based authoring of e-Learning courses using the same set of objects that is used in the desktop versions of CourseLab. To learn more about CourseLab Teamwork, contact us at courselab@courselab.com. Can I edit the published version of an e-learning course? No. Published versions contains no design information, therefore they cannot be loaded back in CourseLab. Please use the source version to make changes and re-publish the entire course after that. Is it possible to edit HTML code in CourseLab? Yes. Any text ...
