Help! Courses not giving automatic credit in LMS

  • November 27, 2018

Hello, I am having an issue where about 30% of the population (of 1700 users) is not getting credit for courses completed.  This seems to be a random issue and our LMS vendor wanted me to verify that the setting in our SCORM files is set to: LMSSetValue("cmi.core.lesson_status",”completed”)

Anyone have an idea on how I can check this?  I looked in test settings but didn't see anything other than checking boxes for completion or quiz results.

Any support you can provide will be much appreciated!!

Thank you,

Tania

    Just a little cautionary point here:

    Your client might be thinking that you've created your very own SCORM code and that you've got a bug in your code.  That's not the case.

    Captivate's SCORM drivers are created by Rustici software, the same people behind SCORM Cloud LMS, which is generally acknowledged as the most SCORM-compliant LMS out there.  Their code is solid. There is not likely to be anything you would need to change on the SCORM driver files.  You'd probably only break something, so leave it alone.

    The more important question to ask here is WHY such a large percentage (70%) of users have absolutely NO problem getting completion for the same course modules that almost a third of users DO have issues with.  If there was a bug in the SCORM driver, everyone would usually be failing to get completion.  Something else is causing this.

    In most cases the issue will turn out to be something with the way you have configured your SCORM Reporting settings, or else it is something that those 30% of users are doing (perhaps in an attempt to circumvent actually completing the course as they should).

    So, to help debug this further, can you please show us screenshots of your Quiz > Reporting, Quiz > Settings, and Quiz > Pass or Fail screens?

    Hi Rod,

    Thank you, I was thinking the same thing (that I would screw it up and why only 30% of the population). Below are the screenshots.

    Will leave this to Rod, but I would certainly change the field 'Required' back to 'Optional'..... You have that requirement already in the Reporting section. You can force the user to take all questions by not including the Skip/Back buttons.

    It's probably in your scormdriver.js file.

    Thanks so much for the quick reply....I'm pretty new to Captivate, can you elaborate a little.  Where do I find the scormdriver.js file?

    In the published SCORM folder you'll find that file.
