Can we use a published scorm package (quiz course) inside another captivate project using web component or some other possible means.
I'm working on a 360 project which has 120 slides already with necessary interactions. Now we feel it would be difficult to add 100 more slide for the quiz. Instead of having the quiz in the same project, can we publish the questions separately and use it in the main project as web component like iFrame?

 

Kindly advice.

    No that will not work.  The SCORM containing the quiz would not be allowed to communicate with the LMS at the same time as the outer SCORM.  Only one SCO at a time.  You should investigate either using a Multi-SCORM package or else structure your SCOs in the course in the LMS using a learning pathway of some kind.  This is very common in modern LMSs.

    Thank you for the quick response RodWard!
    I shall check with my team and the client if we can go with Multi SCORM.


    Can you help me get more details on this suggestion of yours:

    "structure your SCOs in the course in the LMS using a learning pathway of some kind.  This is very common in modern LMSs."

    I would say to try it. I have done this type of thing before. The JavaScript in the scormdriver should not allow the initialzation to be called twice and it should find the API by looking in the parents.

     

    You would need to set the completion criteria in the main project to the quiz.

     

    It's worth a try.
