This support article offers guidance on contributing HTML packages to the Learning Hub and the options available to contributors for sharing access to HTML packages via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR). 

By enabling the ESR learning object link feature, contributors are widening the reach of HTML content to users accessing via ESR. 

Unlike SCORM resources HTML sessions can be played in an ordinary browser. The course interactions will work in the same way but the session won't track and score like a SCORM package

• The HTML zip must contain an index.html file in the root. Make sure you zip the components without adding them to another folder first.
• HTML window size. HTML content will open in a new window. You can use the default window dimensions or you can set the height and width of the HTML window by selecting the Advanced option below.
• ESR learning object link. Electronic Staff Record (ESR) users with the Learning Administration User Responsibility Profile (URP) can set up elearning content to play via ESR. Providing a link enables users with that URP to add this resource as a learning object in ESR. Select one of the three options to indicate if / how you would like the ESR link to be displayed to other users in the Learning Hub. Once generated the link remains the same if changes are made to the resource.

Licensing

When contributing a resource to the Learning Hub it is important that you, as the contributor, understand the licence options available to you. You need to be aware of how your choice of licence affects how learners can interact with, and potentially share, the resource after it is added to the Learning Hub. 

Are you allowed to share this resource? If you are, you can choose from four licences. Each licence offers different levels of restrictions on how the resource can be shared and used.
