Get the previous scores in the LMS

Mar 03, 2021

Hello Everyone,

Have you experienced getting only the latest score of the user in the LMS result?

We have 2 Tests in our Storyline, First is the Pre-test (no retake button), Second is the Post-test (with retakes until they pass).

After completing the whole course we only get the highest score the user obtained.

Is there a way how to get the score for each test and attempts?

Anyway, you can't complete the course without passing the Post-test.

In our case, Course Current Score (column) displays 100% always.

Hi Jhon,

Thanks for reaching out, and happy to clarify your questions!

Is there a way to get a score for a pre-test and post-test attempt?

Storyline lets you track a course by the number of slides viewed, a quiz result, or a completion trigger. Sending more than one measurement or multiple quiz scores to your LMS for the same course isn't supported.

Though, there is a way to use a results slide to combine the scores of multiple results! Check out the user guide below:

What happens when a learner takes the same quiz multiple times?

Within a Course: When a quiz is taken multiple times within the same course attempt, the most recent score is sent to the LMS upon exit.

Example: A learner takes a quiz and passes, then fails, then passes it again. Only the final pass would be recorded. 

Within an LMS: For learners who try to retake a quiz after closing the course, what happens depends on your LMS. Usually, the LMS allows them to retake the quiz only if the course wasn’t completed.

If they took the quiz and completed the course, they most likely won’t be able to retake the quiz.

I hope this helps clarify your questions, and it may be worth it to reach out to your LMS to see if multiple scores are possible.
