$langPathContent = "The Learning Path tool has two functions : <ul><li>Create a learning Path</li><li>Upload a Scorm or IMS format Learning path</li></ul><imgsrc=\"../img/path_help.gif\"><p><b> What is a Learning Path ?</b></p><p>A Learning Path is a sequence of learning steps included in modules. It can be content-based (looking like a table of contents) or activities-based, looking like an agenda or a programme of what you need to do in order to understand and practice a certain knowledge or know-how.</p><p>In addition to being structured, a learning path can also be sequenced. This means that some steps will constitute pre-requisites for others ('you cannot go to step 2 before step1'). Your sequence can be suggestive (you show steps one after the other) or imperative (you add pre-requisites so that people are forced to follow the sequence). </p><p><b>How to create our own Learning Path ?</b></p><p> The first step is to arrive to Learning Path Builder section. In the Learning Path screen, there is a link to it. There you can create many paths by clicking onto <i>Add a new learning path</i>. But they are empty, till you add modules and steps to them.<br/>If you make a path visible, it will appear as a new tool on the homepage of the course. This way their access is easier.</p><p><b>What are the steps for these paths ? (What are the items that can be added?)</b></p><p>All Chamilo tools, activities and contents that you consider to be useful and connected to your imagined path can be added :<br/><ul><li>Agenda items</li><li>Separate documents (texts, pictures, Office docs, ...)</li><li>Announcement items</li><li>Forums as a whole</li><li>Topics</li><li>Individual topic messages</li><li>Links</li><li>Dokeos Tests</li><li>HotPotatoes Tests <br/>(note : those invisible tests, that you put in a path, become visible for students, but only in the Path tool)</li><li>Assignments page</li><li>Dropbox page</li><li>External links, which point out of Chamilo system</li></ul></p><p><b> Other features of Learning Path</b></p><p> Students can be asked to follow (read) your path in a given order, as you can set <u>prerequisities</u> in the path. This means that for example students cannot go to Quiz 2 till they have read Document 1. All items have a status : completed or incomplete, so the progress of students is clearly available. </p><p> If you alter the original title of a step, the new title will appear in the path, but the original title will not be deleted. So if you want test8.doc to appear as 'Final Exam' in the path, you do not have to rename the file, you can use the new title in the path. It is also useful to give new titles to links as they are too long. </p><p> When finished, do not forget to check the student view, where the table of contents appears on the left and the path steps usually appear on the right, one by one. </p><br/><p><b> What is a Scorm or IMS format Learning path and how to upload (import) it?</b></p><p>The learning path tool allows you to upload SCORM and IMS compliant course contents.</p><p>SCORM (<i>Sharable Content Object Reference Model</i>) is a public standard followed by major e-Learning actors like NETg, Macromedia, Microsoft, Skillsoft, etc. and acting at three levels: </p><ul><li><b>Economy</b> : Scorm allows whole courses or small content units to be reusable on different Learning Management Systems (LMS) through the separation of content and context,</li><li><b>Pedagogy</b> : Scorm integrates the notion of pre-requisite or <i>sequencing</i> (<i>e.g. </i>\"You cannot go to chapter 2 before passing Quiz 1\"),</li><li><b>Technology</b> : Scorm generates a table of contents as an abstraction layer situated outside content and outside the LMS. It helps content and LMS communicate with each other. What is communicated is mainly <i>bookmarks </i>(\"Where is John in the course?\"), <i>scoring</i> (\"How did John pass the test?\") and <i>time</i> (\"How much time did John spent in chapter 1?\").</li></ul><b>How to create a SCORM compliant learning path?</b><br/>
