Subject: [Xerte] Issue with SCORM and Moodle

Hi,

There seems to be an issue with using SCORM with XERTE and Moodle.

We have run a few tests and the issue seems to be on the XERTE side,

Please find some feedback from our developer below,

After spending some time looking into why xerte doesn't seem to show a score in the moodle grade book I think I've figured out why.

Basically the output from xerte doesn't work... The package template that xerte spits out has a spelling error in the script tag that imports the scorm api wrapper, meaning it has no way of communicating moodle's scorm engine.

After I patched it and tried again it seems that no communication is even being attempted by the xerte package other than to start and stop the session. This means it doesn't even suggest anything about a scoring mechanism or setting a lesson status. Although technically both of those values aren't required together at least one of them needs to be present otherwise there is nothing to report. If would like me to explain how moodle makes use of these values then let me know as it is a bit complicated/lengthy to do by email.

Thanks for any help,

Chris
