Has anyone incorporated a grade book into Luminis? This is the biggest missing component of Course Studio.

Some schools use Blackboard/Moodle/Sakai for every course so faculty can post grades for assignments/quizzes/tests. We only use Blackboard for on-line courses to keep our licensing costs manageable.

I asked this back in 2009 and got no responses. Hopefully someone has figured it out by now. Has anyone incorporated the Sakai/Moodle grade book component only in Luminis?

Has anyone attempted to control the content of a channel using links in a different channel? Assume you have two channels on a tab, one is nothing but a fixed list of links. If you click on one of the links the url opens up in the second channel. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi all

How do we edit the content of "Bookmarks" channel? We just migrated from a luminis 3 to a 4 system and trying to change the links of the channel but could not.

Please someone help? Thanks!

Hi all

We are now testing our newly installed and migrated luminis IV (4.2.3.34) system. We found out that the name of channel linked files are case sensitive! Does any school notice this? Could any one tell me what table in Oracle DB to store all these linked file names? Thanks!

This article is about how we create dynamic channels in our Luminis portal at Clayton State University (CSU).

Recently we used tccmigrator export to dump the TCCs from our TEST system. After backing up our TCCs we rolled back to a previous snapshot (using zfs zones) and then imported the TCCs. We went through and set all the TCCs to be in the 'TCC' channel category. When logged in as a fragment owner with no roles defined we can see the full list of channels when trying to add one to the layout. When logged in as a non-fragment owner but still admin account the list only has a few of the channels. Has anyone seen this before? Is there a setting or something that I missed?

Thanks,
Tom

Hi all

Is there any way we can create an inventory list of luminis system running 3.3.3.64 version? (like Content, Channels, Groups and roles) So after we migrate, we can know everything is ok or not? Thanks!

I am slogging along setting up single signon for eCollege/MyLabs Plus. So far I wrote a GCF Connector to perform the appropriate Single Signon. (using the HMAC/SHA technique. This works fine, (except for the inability to deep link to an individual class) but now I am trying to figure out how to present this to students and faculty. Since only a small fraction of our classes use this system, it seems silly to put in a general purpose custom icon or channel.

This year at Summit I had the pleasure of presenting/competing in Luminis Idol with some other very talented (and entertaining) folks. Later on I was asked to share some of our mods - particularly the "Tabbed Targeted Content Channel" code. Sorry it took so long, but I'm finally getting around to it. (Banner 8 upgrade has been consuming my life!)

Attached you'll find a zip file with the code and documentation to install and use it. Hope you find it useful. It's been very well received at our colleges.
