Organizing scenes/lessons for LMS

Sep 24, 2013

I can't seem to figure out how to organize my scenes/individual lessons to report correctly in my LMS.

As I have it set up in Storyline right now, I have 9 chapters and I want 1-9 to play, one after the other (each seperated by a quiz). To connect each scene/lesson, I use the "jump to the next scene" trigger. As a result, I have one, very long stream of slides, stacked on top of each other. Initially, I had each chapter in a horizontal line, which is easier to view when there are over 300 slides, but when I would preview my project, the "jump to next slide" would not do anything...so I switched to "jump to next scene"...which brought me to the current layout I described above.  Any advice on which arrangement will export correctly? Right now my LMS seems to only be recognizing 1 lesson, which makes me think the long stream of slides is being "registered" as one huge lesson...but I can't seem to make the slides advance otherwise...

Help! Thanks

Hi Jessica and welcome to Heroes!

If it's all within one Storyline file, your LMS is correct in recognizing it as one lesson. The layout you're describing in Story view also sounds correct to show that each scene is connected to the one that came before it and the one that comes after it. The "jump to next slide" trigger is also behaving as expected and if there are no further slides within that scene, it doesn't have anywhere to go to. 

It sounds like it's all working as designed, and the export should work by creating one Storyline course that you'll place within your LMS.

So sorry for replying to a somewhat outdated post.

I have been able to create a project in SL 3 with 3 scenes and each scenes have 50 questions each.

I have also been able to place my trigger well so that from the landing page of the course, the user can swiftly go to a particular scene of interest and access various questions particular to that scene.

However, I keep on seeing all the slides I prepared in the menu portion by the left-most part of the screen.

I would love to know how to ensure that only slides for a particular scene is seen when a scene is selected.

Thanks in anticipation.
