Those are (in my humble opinion) very vague requirements, so I'll
write down what Xerte can do in these two area's.<br>
<br>
- SCORM compatibility<br>
<br>
In Xerte 2.0 SCORM capabilities have been enhanced:<br>
* Don't need to think of it during authoring. SCORM is added on
Export<br>
* SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 3rd Ed.<br>
* tracks all pages (visited, duration) and currently quiz and
Multiple Choice Question. More than 1 of these can be combined, and
a weight can be assigned.<br>
<br>
- Wide-interactivity<br>
<br>
Interactivity through programming is available to developers by
adding/changing page models/templates.<br>
With the quiz you can currently have say 50 questions and ask the
learner 10 random questions out of those 50.<br>
<br>
The whole point of Xerte itself is there is no need for programming
by the author.<br>
<br>
But again, it is setup in such a way that it's easy to add page
models/templates to the system, and those are in Javascript (for the
latest engine).<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>
