[Building Sakai] Importing questions to Samigo

[Daniel Merino]

Hi, Mathieu.

First at all, thanks for that wonderful help info. Here at the UPNA, we 
have been following the Delaware steps migrating from WebCT 4 to Sakai . 
Your timeline and your documentation of the process has been of great 
inspiration for us.

That said, I fear that we have a "bad success rate", because we have the 
questions correctly imported from WebCT into Respondus, but saving them 
as "IMS QTI 1.1" doesn't work with Multiple choice.

We usually use the New England tool (Webct2Samigo) to transform the 
WebCT exported XML into Samigo friendly XML, but the Self Test quizzes 
aren't included in the process. So I was trying to use Respondus to make 
it easy. But I fear that I will have to modify the tool's code.

Thanks anyway.
Regards
