Completion Tracking in Moodle

Jun 19, 2012

Hi,

I need some inputs from all users who use Articulate Presenter and Moodle.

When I publish a file in presenter, I can set the threshold to mark the chapter as complete. 

Say we have 20 screens and the threshold is set as 12.

So when I enable new attempts in Moodle, the way I see the report is 

-------------------------------

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,2,3,4,5,6|lastviewedslide=7|

status - incomplete

attempt - 1

-------------------------------

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,7,8,9,10,11, 12|lastviewedslide=13|

status - incomplete

attempt - 2

-------------------------------

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,13,14,15,16, 17, 18, 19, 20|lastviewedslide=17|

status - incomplete

attempt - 3

-------------------------------

Now, as an users, I have looked all 20 screens and learnt the lesson.

Still the chapter is being marked as incomplete, only because at any attempt , I have not completed the required threshold, which is 12 screens here.

Is there any way that I can consolidate the attempts and say that , the chapter is complete ?

I would be very grateful if someone can provide suggestion to resolve this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for the reply.

So, if I set the new attempts OFF in moodle do you say I see the below update for the earlier example-

3rd attempt on the same chapter will say - 

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16, 17, 18, 19, 20|lastviewedslide=20|

status - complete

attempt - 1

-------------------------------

Am I correct ?

Thanks.

Great Phil! 

I have one more concern which is some what linked to the attempts.

When I switch off force new attempt and resume presentation, then the way Moodle tracks the time is very strange -

Say, I have spent  

---------------20 mins (Day - 1) ----------------

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,2,3,4,5,6|lastviewedslide=7|

time spent - 20 mins

---------------5 mins (Day - 2) ----------------

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11, 12|lastviewedslide=13|

time spent - 5 mins

---------------17 mins (Day - 3) ----------------

cmi.suspend_data viewed=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11, 12,13,14,15,16, 17, 18, 19, 20|lastviewedslide=17|

time spent - 17 mins

-------------------------------

It just overrides the time spent of a SCORM chapter instaed of adding (20+5+17) mins

Am I missing something in the moodle ? I am sure time tracking is a basic requirement for an e-learning, may be I am missing something. Would request your help.

Thanks.
