[Using Sakai] Migratin from Moodle to Sakai [Scanned]

[Anthony Whyte]

Calvin--last month Robin Smith offered to do a Moodle/Respondus 4.0  
phone tutorial with you to solve the initial export problem.  Did the  
call take place?  Second, Boeta Pretorius from North-West University  
also offered to speak with you.  Have you spoken with him?

Looking back over the list archives I see an email from you on 21  
October reporting that "I have tried using Respondus 4 ,But it does  
not seem to work."  What precisely did not work and what steps did you  
take in your attempt to export your Moodle questions using Respondus?

What version of Moodle are you using?  What version of Sakai are you  
using?  If you attempted to import questions into Sakai using Test and  
Quizzes and the import failed, what was the error encountered and is  
there a stack trace you can send us?  If you were able to export tests  
out of Moodle using Respondus, can you send us a sample test?   It is  
difficult if not impossible for people in the Sakai Community to offer  
advice or solutions without knowledge of the specific context in which  
you are attempting to operate.

GETTING LOCAL ASSISTANCE

If our suggestions on list are getting you nowhere I recommend that  
you or your boss contact Psybergate and Tecqle, two South African IT  
services organizations that provide an array of Sakai support  
services.  I am confident that either organization can assist you in  
your test question export/import challenge.
