Move existing Learning Object or Test

Question

Hi,
Is it possible to move an existing Learning Object or Test into a new Learning Object thus creating a nested structure? From the thread "OLM - Merging Multiple Learning Objects into One" posted in July 2010, it sounds possible but I don't know how.

Hi Alwyn,
You cannot move an existing Learning Object to create a nested structure, but you can create a parent Learning Object and add new child Learning Objects, Tests, and/or Surveys underneath it (or copy existing Learning Objects, Tests, and/or Surveys underneath it).
To create everything from scratch:
- Create a top-level Learning Object and leave the starting URL blank
- Select the radio button next to the Learning Object that you just created and create a new Learning Object
- Set the tracking type and starting URL for your child Learning Object as appropriate for the content you're pointing to
To add another child Learning Object or test, select the radio button next to the top-level Learning Object and repeat the same steps until you have all of the nested Learning Objects / Tests / Surveys that you'll need.
The steps are pretty much the same for copying existing Learning Objects:
- Create the parent Learning Object
- Highlight the radio button next to the Learning Object you wish to copy
- Click the Copy button
- Select the radio button of the parent Learning Object you created in step 1 and click Apply
- Update the copied Learning Object so that the title doesn't say (copy) at the end
A parent will be marked completed when all of its children are complete. You map the Offering to the parent Learning Object.
I hope this helps!
