The focus here the last few months has been less on creating custom courses for clients and more on building Templates and Learning Portals (think LMS-lite). So, what do I do if Im not doing that? Client Relations: This mostly falls under Project Management. e-Learning Strategy Consulting: This is a new area for me.

Say, if youre purchasing a course library from SkillSoft or some other vendor: If a client has their own LMS, do they purchase the courses outright and host them on their own servers? If so, is the vendor able to track usage or do they just sell the content for a flat fee based on LMS seat size? By actual usage?

You can manage which learners can take your course and track the learners progress. After reviewing all these applications I came to the conclusion that Facebook could be used in the learning process. I would used Facebook as a tool that will enhance/support an e-Learning course and not as a LMS.

Already I can tell you that Im just going to skip this step. Im not trying to make money off this blog. I use this blog as my own learning tool and write about what I feel like writing about -- usually right when it hits me. So maybe my unique take on Day 7 will simply be keeping track of things Id like to write about.

But if your platform is primarily used in the corporate space, you might not be familiar with LTI or even know how it can help enhance your learning product. Using LTI, if you have an interactive assessment application or virtual chemistry lab, it can be securely connected to your LMS with a few clicks. What is LTI? Great news!

You want to implement your courseware to the SCORM standard if you plan to have it launched and/or tracked under an LMS. One case is building a one-off course that needs simple tracking/reporting and will never run under an LMS. In these cases, I'm not tracking and likely it's not under the LMS.
