[Xerte] Re: XOT Scorm Completion

[Julian Tenney]

I'd just not bother tracking complete. What does it actually mean? That the last page was reached? That isn't really telling you anything very meaningful about what the learner actually did.

I'd just look at score. If they pass the test, great, that's what you care about, and that's all you really need to know.

The scormRLO.htm file?  If so, I assume (I'm pretty new to this) that the function onunload and finish() are what signals the completion status in the LMS?

onunload = "finish();" //in body tag

function finish(){
    doLMSFinish();
}


I think I'm going to have to accept that setting the course as complete after achieving a quiz score is going to be beyond my skills (at least for now).   However, is it possible to run a script on a page in XOT (i.e. the final page of a course) which sets the course as complete?  Or am I looking at this the wrong way?  Ideally, I need the course to only be marked as complete by an LMS once the last page has been reached.

Anybody's advice on this is greatly appreciated!

Phil

Good question. Complete is set automatically by the .htm page.  Scores are set from xerte via calls to the .js functions in the web page. You'll have to do something so that when the web page closes down, you check the score and then set the status if a certain score is reached.

Subject: [Xerte] XOT Scorm Completion

I've compiled a scorm package for a course created in XOT.   I'd like the course to report as "complete" in an LMS only once the quiz at the end has been finished.

Is there any scripting etc I'll need to tweak the Scorm package files with in the full version of Xerte?  Or can this be done from XOT itself?

In the quiz at the end of the course I have ticked "Judge questions" and set the attribute "Scorm Tracking" to "Track Last Score".  I've just tried testing this in an LMS though and it reports as complete as soon as you open the Scorm course.
