Description

We have been having some problems running our SCORM courseware in Moodle because of seemingly quirky behaviour of the Moodle LRM. Users' answers are stored in the cmi.interactions model so that they can be retrieved when the user leaves the resource and returns later on. This is vital, as the SCORM should show user answers and give feedback on correct / incorrect. However, after a user has completed the questions on a SCO and navigated away from that SCO, on returning, the cmi.interactions seem to have been lost completely.

Additionally, returning to a SCO automatically puts it into review mode - would it be better to have a 'submit' option as in SharePoint Learning Kit, so a user can work through the resource, revisiting pages to fill in answers in normal mode, before submitting the resource and triggering review mode?

Hope you can shed some light on the matter! Thanks.

Moodle does not fully implements SCORM 2004 so somethings may miss.

In SCORM 1.2 cmi.interactions are only writeable by SCOes, this are ADL specifications, so next sessions can't read the old values.
You can retrive them in scorm report pages.

The review mode is activated when the SCO set the lesson_status to completed or passed.

All the power is in the SCO, the LMS check only the contrains.

Thanks for the swift response. I know others have asked elsewhere in the tracker, but is full 2004 support in the plan for the near future? A lot of resources that we use make use of the cmi.interactions model between sessions to store answer data and present it, with corrections, when the resource is in review mode. It would be fantastic if Moodle had the same support as big commercial solutions such as MS Learning Gateway / SLK.

flagging this as "not a bug" - as Roberto Mentions "All the power is in the SCO, the LMS check only the contrains."

there are various other bugs in the tracker that talk about SCORM 2004 compliance with specific areas for improvement.

thanks,

Dan
