<div dir="ltr"><div>i'm surprised - but i do understand what you are suggesting - however this level of coding/config is out of the question (even if i could challenge my little brain to do it) because the company involved has no-one who would then be able to take this over to continue.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>we need something which just works within moodle without custom coding - while course template level customisations would have been ok individual customisations/coding on courses would be prohibtive - if that makes sense<br>

<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">In theory, saving the data is straightforward. Throughout a quiz, you keep score in a variable called score. When you want to set the value of score in the LMS, you use the script </font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">_level0.setValue('cmi.core.score.raw', score);</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">This assumes that the variable score contains the value you want to set in the LMS. You'll need some script thoughout the quiz, to judge questions, and if correct, increment score.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">Similarly to get the score if the user return to the quiz you can use </font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">lastScore = _level0.getValue('cmi.core.score.raw');</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">The scripting you use to manage the score throughout the quiz is likely to be more complicated than the simple calls to set and get the values from the LMS.</font></div>

<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">You will need to get familiar with the SCORM documentation, and it would be worthwhile installing the test suite for the version of SCORM your LMS suports (last time I looked, Moodle claimed to support 2004, but in reality it didn't when I tested it).</font></div>

<div>thanks i will try the stage size thing </div>
<div> </div>
<div>regarding the code - no its not a show stopper if its something that i do once per course/object and if its not too complex. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am working for a company who have a large number of legacy (face2face/written) courses/content which they are going to convert/republish as scorm objects in moodle - I am more of an instructional designer than a developer and so i know what we want to achieve and i am happy to learn to use a tool to create what we want - but the development time per course is critical - and they don't have an in house developer (because there are no other developer requirements in the company) - thats why i am exploring a range of different tools - to see which will deliver the professional output we want - sit happily in moodle - give us a bit of data back for tracking and with shortest learning curve for me and whoever i have to teach this process to in the company.<br>

<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">I'm guessing from the emails (not sent to the list) you are using templates.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">As such the div which holds the template and affects the way the rlo will appear on the screen will be the same size as the rlo. You could set the style to have the style scrollable, (style="overflow:scroll") and then make the div smaller, but I suspect it would look awful.</font></div>

<div>i have two new issues and i would really like to figure these out because i really want to use xerte</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. the display size of a the scorm object produced is too big for moodle and the the moodle settings do not appear to have any effect on over-riding this. Can i change the display size of the scorm package easily or not?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>2) because i'm not a techy i cannot see easily what meta data is exchanged - in other authoring tools i am trialing i can choose what data i want to exchange (not sure of the correct terminology here) - someone on here said that there are issues with xerte 'talking to' some LMS - can someone help me on this - i need to know what level of data i can expect my scorm object built in xerte to exachange easily (without going to code level writing) with moodle - for example i would like it to report assessment scores from within a scorm, not just started, completed level data. - does that make sense? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>3) does anyone know of anyone who is using xerte to create scorm objects for moodle??</div>
<div> </div>
<div>many thanks </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Jude - feeling a bit blonde with all of this :)</div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>Xerte mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk" target="_blank">Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</a><br>
