Telling SCORM 2004 2nd Edition or 3rd Edition

May 09, 2011

Hi!

We know that AP can publish to SCORM 2004 (2nd or 3rd edition) or SCORM 1.2. 

Say you get a course delivered to you that was published to one of them.  And say the developer is not available for questions. 

What's the quickest way to determine which version of SCORM (and if 2004, which edition), the AP course was published to?

Is there some file one can open that records this--or is it just a visual inspection of the all the files at the root level of the course?

TIA!

Hi Gerry,

In the imsmanfiest.xml file, you'll see a "schemeversion" tag in about the first 15 lines of the file.  

SCORM 2004 2nd Edition looks like this:

<schema>ADL SCORM</schema>

<schemaversion>CAM 1.3</schemaversion>

<adlcp:location>metadata.xml</adlcp:location>

SCORM 2004 3rd Edition:

[quote]

<schema>ADL SCORM</schema>

<schemaversion>2004 3rd Edition</schemaversion>

<adlcp:location>metadata.xml</adlcp:location>

SCORM 1.2:

<schema>ADL SCORM</schema>

<schemaversion>1.2</schemaversion>

Wait--follow-on questions.

With AICC, I can look at the AP output's presentation.xml file and see if the course if passed with a quiz (and with what score) or by number of slides viewed (and the number required).

I'm assuming that the same is true of SCORM, correct?  No difference there with the presentation.xml file, correct?

THANKS!  

P.S.  And what of standalone Engage or QM quizzes published to AICC or SCORM?
