AI course creator for SumTotal: start with an approved procedure

Use Honen to draft a SumTotal course from approved source material. Keep a subject expert responsible for the lesson and its tutor answers. Then test a SCORM package in SumTotal. See Honen for SumTotal for format and audit considerations.

Start with an auditable source

Record the policy owner, version, and effective date. Name the task learners must perform. For a safety procedure, include the stop condition and escalation route. Ask the owner to resolve conflicting instructions before Honen drafts the course.

Build and review in Honen

1. Give Honen the approved source and learner goal.
2. Review the outline with the expert.
3. Check each rule, question, and answer.
4. Test tutor replies to an unsupported exception.
5. Ask a qualified editor to check controlled language.

Use short sentences and active verbs. Put one action in each instruction. Use one approved term for each concept. A qualified editor must check ASD-STE100 rules, the approved dictionary, and domain terms.

Deliver and retain the version record

SumTotal lists SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 support. Export the version your tenant expects. Have an administrator confirm the current upload path. Launch as a test learner, complete the final action, and inspect the SumTotal result. SCORM data returns while the course is open.

SumTotal describes versioning of learning activities for audit work. Record the approved Honen source version and the SumTotal activity version together. After a policy change, test the course and decide how in-progress learners will receive the new content.
