Manage Learning Object Repository Objects
Use the Learning Object Repository (LOR) management view to organize, edit, move, and delete repository objects. You can also track where each object is used across courses and organizations.
The LOR supports the following object types:
Documents
Learning modules
Folders
Files
Manage objects
Select Tools and choose Learning Object Repository.
Select the ellipsis (...) button for the LOR.
After you open the menu, the following options are available:
Edit
Select Edit to make changes to the object. Edits made to objects in the LOR are applied to all associated objects in courses and organizations.
Note
Changes are not applied if a course is marked completed or has an end date in the past.
Move to
You can move objects between learning modules and folders.
Select Move to.
Navigate to the learning module or folder where you want to place the object.
Select the radio button to place the object at the top or the bottom of the destination learning module or folder.
Select the Move button.
Associations
Select Associations to access a list of the associations for an object. You can search for an association by course or organization name or ID. You can sort the list by ID, name, term, or availability.
Delete
When you select Delete, you have two options.
Delete this object: Select this option to delete the object from the LOR, but it will remain in all associated courses and organizations. The object remaining in the course or organization loses its link to the LOR and becomes fully editable.
Delete this object and all associated objects: Select this option to delete the object from the LOR and from all active courses and organizations it is associated with. Objects are not deleted from courses that have been marked complete or whose end date has passed.
Find objects
In the LOR management view, you can sort objects by name, type, number of associations, or date modified. You can also filter by object type or search by name.
Edit object order in learning modules and folders
When you are accessing objects in the LOR management view, you can sort, search, and filter them to customize your view. When a learning module or folder is inserted into a course or organization, however, you want the items in it to be in a particular order.
Select Tools and choose Learning Object Repository.
Navigate to the learning module or folder.
Turn on the Edit Order toggle.
Arrange the objects in your desired order.
Turn off the Edit Order toggle.
The objects are now locked in the order you set. When the learning module or folder is inserted into a course or organization, items appear in that order. This is true regardless of how you sort, search, or filter them in the management view.
