[Xerte] quizzes - Incorrect data type problem

Does it work in the SCORM test suite for 2004?

 

If it works there, then it passes the test. The last time I tested
Moodle's support for 2004 it didn't work properly... but that was a good
while ago now.

Hello,

 

I used the method toString() and worked fine in SCORM 1.2. I don't get
the error anymore and keeps the score too. 

The only problem is that in SCORM 2004 doesn't keep the score. I tried
to upgrade my moodle to 1.9.5+ and still doesn't work.

 

 

 

--------------

score = Math.ceil(quizScoreTracking.sum() / quizScoreTracking.length *
100);

 

if (pageIcon.templateData.quiz[0].scorm == 'Track Last Score'){

  _level0.setValue('cmi.core.score.raw', score.toString());

} else { //only track the first score

  if (isNaN(_level0.getValue('cmi.core.score.raw'))){

    _level0.setValue('cmi.core.score.raw', score.toString());

  }

}

To test it, add a temporary line below this one:

score = Math.ceil(quizScoreTracking.sum() / quizScoreTracking.length *
100);

score = "75"

That will test if the system is looking for a string value.

If that doesn't work try 

score = 75


If the first one works, the system wants the value in a string type.

If the second one works, you may have to round the score, as it may want
an integer.

I have found this script in my rlo file but I don't know if it's ok..
does anyone know?

 

score = Math.ceil(quizScoreTracking.sum() / quizScoreTracking.length *
100);

 

if (pageIcon.templateData.quiz[0].scorm == 'Track Last Score'){

  _level0.setValue('cmi.core.score.raw', score);

} else { //only track the first score

  if (isNaN(_level0.getValue('cmi.core.score.raw'))){

    _level0.setValue('cmi.core.score.raw', score);

  }

}

I am busy finishing off the testing of a set of Xerte models based on a
re-working of the .rlm files so that the models can be used individually
in Xerte, outside of page templates.

 

Is there a new quiz.rlm file as a result of this thread, and if so where
can I obtain a copy?

 

Kind regards

So you must have a folder called 'models' in your project?

Hi Jullian

There isn't any rlm file or models folder in my files. Am I doing
anything wrong? How can I test your attached file?

I noticed also that if I export the lesson in scorm 2004 format I don't
get the error but the grades remain 0.

Hi Julian

Does that mean the quiz page template does actually send scores? I was
under the impression there wasn't any score tracking built in to that
template.

Cheers

Ron

Can you swap your quiz.rlm for thoe one attached and see if it sorts the
problem out? It goes in the models folder alongside your rlt. I was
sending a number from Xerte. I'm pretty sure all the SCORM functions
need strings...?

Ok,

That depens on the package. In our case, we call de scorm functions
(setValue, getValue) from our custom interface, an swf. If is the same
with your package, you'll need the .fla file with the code, not enough
with the compiled .swf file.

But it's possible de scorm functions are called from your .rlo file
instead, so install Xerte and edit your .rlo file, and look for the two
functions I mentioned before on the script pages.

 

Sorry I cannot explain better, I use custom autolearned English J.

To be honest I didn't create the packages. I don't know many things
about the creation of scorm packages and xerte. Can you please tell me
how can I check what value is passing in setValue function?

Are you sure you are passing the correct value to the setValue function?
It expects a number I guess and maybe he gets a null or a string,
whatever, check your code J

Hello

 

I use moodle 1.9.4 and xerte 2.0 to produce scorm packages  and I'm
having a little problem with the quizzes. I want to keep the score but
when I'm answering the questions and hit the submit button I get the
error "Incorrect data type" and the score remains 0.  Can anyone help
me?

 

Thanks,

Leo
