Question

How do I report a score to my LMS without a "Results" slide?

I have a course that doesn't have any questions or a results slide, but requires the learner to acknowledge a statement at the end of the course by selecting a button.  In addition to the "I Acknowledge" button, there is also an "I CANNOT Acknowledge" button.  Each button is setup so that it is included in the quiz reporting (a 2 if the statement is acknowledged, a 1 if it is not).  The idea behind all of this was that we could run a report from our LMS and use the score to see who acknowledged the statement (score of 2) and who could not (score of 1).

 

The problem is that some people are selecting both buttons and are scoring a 3.  So, I need to revise the course so that it is only possible to report either a 2 or a 1.

 

The easy way would be to set it up so that when the learner selected one button it disabled the other.  But, there are potential consequences for selecting either answer so I want to give the learner the ability to change their mind or fix it if they accidently select the wrong button.  The couple of possible options I've found online all seem far too complicated (e.g., disabling the quiz reporting option and wrapping the course in SCORM manually).  I would think that there's a simple JavaScript that I could use to send a score to the LMS, but I can't find it and I'm not that JS savy.  If I can't find something I'll go with the "disable" option.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Why not use a default True/False question? You can edit the wording 'True, False' and edit the feedback messages as well so that it doesn't look that the learner failed. Set True as correct answer, give a score to the question and hide the Results slide. Once they clicked 'Submit' navigate beyond the hidden score slide (it is important to do so, because that will transfer the score to the LMS). 

    You can refine the disable situation by asking for a confirmation to allow changing the option.

    Lilybiri,

    The way I put the course together won't allow me to use a question/result slide.  To minimize the overall size of the course, I used states for the text boxes and show/hide for the buttons.  At this point I'd have to do extensive revisions to use a question slide, so I'd just go with the "disable button" route.

    Some clarification.  The "I cannot acknowledge" button wasn't originally supposed to be in the course.  Originally, the idea was that if someone could not acknowledge the statements they would close the course and go speak with their supervisor.  But, during the final review, the course owner wanted learners to be able to complete the course without having to acknowledge the statement.  Since the course had already been built, my options were limited as to what I could do to accomodate them.
