Essay submissions in LMS
Mar 27, 2015
Hi, This issue seems to be in the gray area between the Storyline and the D2L (LMS I am using), but I really do not know where to go with it. My courses have essays and when students submit them we do not see those submissions in the LMS. When I publish, I select this particular report slide for tracking. Are there any other settings I should do in SL. Any tips in additional set up in the LMS? Thank you in advance!

Update on the issue - this is what I received from the Desire2Learn support: "we don't save those essays that the student wrote in SCORM anywhere. We only record data from SCORM javascript calls such as user info, location where the user is in scorm, score... not actually content unless its programmed to send to the LE using SCORM javascript calls." Any comments will be greatly appreciated!
Hi Tamara,
It sounds like you'll need to set up some custom Javascript info to send along to your LMS. Since we don't support Javascript I'll defer to the community in regards to what they would set up.
Hi Ashley,
Thanks for response! After digging into the community postings, I also realized that I I might have set up not the survey result slide and, as I understand now, for the LMS to read the text inputs, it should the the survey one. Do you think that that might resolve the issue? Or per information that I gave it does not matter? Thanks again!
Hi Tamara,
Either the survey or the regular results slide should be reporting that data - are you able to test it out at SCORM Cloud? That's an industry standard for testing SCORM content and may help you narrow down where the issue is occurring.
Hi,
I submitted the support case on the matter and it seems that the only way out is the JavaScript. We do not have in-house expertise on it and after checking the sample codes, it seems to be fairly easy. I would be most grateful if anyone in the community would share the code for submitting an assay to the D2L. (Note on the previous message from Aushley - yes, this work fine in Scorm Cloud - it is the D2L where the problems are). Thank you very much!
Hi Tamara,
Thanks for this update and I hope that someone in the community is able to assist you!
