http://www.webct.com/service/viewcontentframe?contentID=4638848 WEBCT ANNOUNCES AVAILABILITY OF IMS CONTENT MIGRATION UTILITY Lynnfield, MA – July 30, 2001 - WebCT, the world's leading provider of integrated e-learning systems for higher education, today announced the availability of an IMS Content Migration Utility for the latest version of its market-leading e-learning software, WebCT 3.6, in both Standard and Campus Editions....The IMS Utility is available online (http://download.webct.com/) and can be implemented by current WebCT license holders through a simple download process. The Utility allows WebCT administrators to easily import or export and save content and assessment information from WebCT courses in XML using IMS Content Packaging 1.1 and Question & Test Interoperability 1.1 format. This support of the IMS standards for content and assessment allows schools to save their courses in a non-proprietary format that can easily be shared with other IMS-compliant software.... (ed. note- If other course management systems follow, this promises "easy" migration of course materials from one system to another, such as between Blackboard and WebCT)
