Hello!
We've created several SCORM assignments using Storyline 360 and are wondering what Canvas considers an "attempt" from a SCORM perspective. What we've noticed is that Canvas will record the grade and status for the first attempt, but subsequent attempts are not recorded unless the user closes the SCORM assignment. For example if the following happens, only the first attempt and the passing attempt are recorded:
In this case, the gradebook only reflects the first failing score and the subsequent passing score - the middle failed attempt is lost.
The only way we've found that the gradebook logs every failed attempt is if the user closes the SCORM lesson after every quiz attempt. Otherwise, Canvas seems to ignore quiz attempts while the user has the SCORM course open.
Any thoughts on this (or clarifications I can offer)? I also have a question out to Articulate on what SCORM variables are submitted when, so covering both sides of this coin.
Thanks!
Hi Jason, Did you ever get an answer to this question? I'm having a similar problem. Storyline 360 quiz. Quiz results can be reset and taken again until they pass (80%) in Storyline. The SCORM is added as a graded assignment to Canvas. Attempts are set to unlimited in Canvas. Canvas is only recording the first attempt.
I'm hoping you might have the answer by now?
Thanks,
Bonnie
