Hi,

I have another problem when I execute my scorm 1.2 package in moodle v2.3 (I've created it using Xerte online toolkits). If I left the course before finishing it, the next time I enter the package moodle shows me the first page of the package and not the next one to the page I was reading before leaving moodle the previous time as expected.

I think this is another big problem because the studet possibly doesn't want to study the whole package in a unique session.

Any idea on how to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

No, because I don't know how to do that. If you know how to make that happening, or if you have a working SCORM package that has this behaviour and can send it to me, I would be happy to implement it.

Well.

There are several ways of doing that.

The first, and the most simple, is to create an imsmanifest with several resources. This way moodle or any other scorm compliant LMS should navigate to the appropriate resource every time you enter the scorm package.

Another way could be to make this by programming it. For example, you have an array of pages in a javascript file and you read from the LMS the index of the page to load when you load your page. I mean you have a loaderpage.htm wich includes this javascript and the LMS functions and in the onload page of this page you calculate the page to load. When you exit the activity you send to the LMS the last index visited to be able to load the next page the next page you enter. In this second way you have to calculate the percentaje completed of your scorm and store it as your score when you exit the activity.

I think either of these ways could meet our needs.

In the case of Xerte, the first option will not work, and I could do the second, if I would know a way to make Moodle give me the last page visted. So far it alwasy starts with an empty, new clean LMS store. I can't get Moodle to 'resume'.

Well.

You have a imsmanifest with a unique sco. Use one of the scorm variables that you don't use. I think that you are not using the cmi.suspend_data. Read it from the LMS when entering the scorm and update it on exiting it.

I'll have a look at cmi.suspend_data.
