[Xerte] scorm grades

[jventola at verizon.net]

(Sorry to be replying to my own message--I accidently deleted Julian's 
reply.)

This is good news.  I was afraid the answer would be no.

I see the problem from your wizard making perspective. As a newbie user, 
my answer is: "I want all those options."  (Hey, I am greedy.)  Is it possible 
also to track the number of attempts?  I have occasionally joked that I wish 
my students cared enough to actually cheat.  I am convinced that I do not 
see much of that, given the answers I get.  And luckily, I can use paragraph 
questions in WebCT, so they would have to get a friend to write them and 
the friend would have to read the book, etc.  Not likely.  

I would not use Scorm tests to replace more controlled tests, but it would let 
me know who is actually getting through the modules.  So could we have a 
check box to record No Score, First Score, Last Score, and/or Number of 
Attempts?

Or, if it is not too hard to roll our own, will there be a tutorial for how to do it?  
I can do SOME coding but it is not my strength.
Thanks.
