Pearson Exploring Science on Moodle - ActiveBook and Activity Pack

[jann]

Exploring Science 7 to 9 arrived in our school not long ago and the head of science has asked for the ActiveBook and Activity Pack for each year group to go on our CLEO hosted VLE. The zip files were uploaded soon after and the SCORM packages set up as advised by Pearson (new window), tested in Firefox and IE8 and then we discovered that their VLE material is not IE8 compatible (their fix is to use Compatibility Mode).

 

This fix is not exactly ideal seems as currently I cannot turn compatibility mode on for solely our VLE URL (vle.school.cumbria.sch.uk) it uses cumbria.sch.uk - I don't know if this is possible?!

 

I've seen plenty of threads for network installs for this software and a few for VLE installs but none with this issue, do you all just force compatibility mode on or have another workaround?

 

Any help / suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks.

Does anyone know if compatibility mode can be turned on for a website like "vle.school.cumbria.sch.uk" rather than "cumbria.sch.uk" as this would help me partially resolve this issue.

 

Thanks again.
