Peoplesoft ELM, Storyline 2 and Question/Response Level Data -- integration question

Thanks for posing a new question Michael and hopefully you will get some great community feedback on this. For anyone else that may run across this thread, I wanted to link your original post here in case subsequent replies post there as well :)

I just subscribed to this feed as well.  It amazes me that the ability to get question level data is so difficult.  Any knowledge check is only as effective as the quality of the question.  Without question level analysis, the validity of the knowledge evaluation is of questionable validity. 

I got some information from Oracle on this topic.

The latest build of Peoplesoft ELM 9.1 and ELM 9.2 can capture SCORM 2004 information. The application currently doesn't have a nice interface to report the information back out--therefore you would need to report from the tables or build custom reports using Peoplesoft tools such as BI publisher or PS Query.

I will confirm when we have successfully setup an Articulate Assessment using SCORM 2004. 

So far it looks promising. 

Thanks Michael for the update and please keep us posted on what you're able to set up in terms of the Peoplesoft set up. 

Thanks for sharing an update Michael :)

My company is running into the same problem, as stated above, and I wanted to check to see if new updates were available. We need the question data from our Knowledge Checks and Quizzes. This is essential information for our training program!

Hi 

I just wanted to highlight this info from a previous reply "The latest build of Peoplesoft ELM 9.1 and ELM 9.2 can capture SCORM 2004 information. The application currently doesn't have a nice interface to report the information back out--therefore you would need to report from the tables or build custom reports using Peoplesoft tools such as BI publisher or PS Query."

We are just finishing our upgrade to 9.2 so hopefully in November I can report on our successful use of SCORM 2004. 

=)

Thanks Micheal for that update on what Peoplesoft is supporting and how it'll behave for you. Please definitely keep us posted on the outcome in November. 

Hi Michael,

Would you please share with me the results of your upgrade to ELM 9.2 with respects to capturing question level assessment detail?  Did you build custom reports because this functionality is not delivered?  Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. 

Hi Trish!

This thread is a bit dated and I'm not sure that Michael is still subscribed here. If you do not hear from him soon, you are welcome to reach out via the 'Contact Me' option on the user profile.

The LMS does capture the question level information. 

• We published Storyline 2 courses using SCORM 2004 version 3
• We did need to create special reports (2) to pull the data out; Nothing fancy--more or less rows of information. 
  • I've worked in other organizations where we've done more formating of the data using crystal reports. I'm not sure the reporting tool used in PeopleSoft. 

Quirks:

• The interface for SCORM 2004 is a little different; here of course navigation buttons that appears in the upper left of the LMS frameset that we thought was a glitch. It's not; it's how the LMS handles these types of course. 

That's about it. 

Bottom line: SCORM 2004 works in the Peoplesoft ELM 9.2. =)

=)

Thanks Michael!

Thanks for the update.

Hi Michael:

I know this thread is a bit older, but are you still using SCORM 2004 and if so what if anything did you do about the extra navigation that 9.2 adds?

Thanks,

Andy

Hey again Andrew - Looks like it's been awhile since this LMS has been brought up here. 

As I mentioned previously, you can reach out to the user directly via the 'Contact Me' option :)

Hope someone is able to assist you here. Have you reached out to the LMS team?

Hi 

We have some courses that are using the SCORM 2004. Since we can't control those extra control elements our workaround was to write additional instructions into how to finish the course. There are still people who get tripped up by it (ie don't read the instructions carefully enough).

The people who field calls on this (Help Desk or people on our team) know how to walk people through the proper steps to exit the course.

Hi Michael,

I'm using Storyline 360, with SCORM 2004, in ELM 9.2

I need to be able to force a suspend string commit to save the string to the LMS server.

With SCORM 1.2, I added a layer to a given screen, then added the Javascript LMSCommit(). this forced a save to the server.

I believe LMSCommit() has been changed to Commit() in SCORM 2004.

However, I haven't been able to force a saving of the suspend string to the LMS server. I believe I am having a problem addressing the API. 

Do you have any suggestions for how I might ammend my Commit() call in Storyline?

Thanks.

Robert

Hi Robert

It's been a while since I've had to think about this issue so unfortunately I don't have an answer to your question. I would start by trying to talk with someone at PeopleSoft. The person I had tracked down at the time was James Kelley at Oracle. In 2015 he was the person who was able to answer my ELM questions. Not sure if this still holds true. 

Good luck. 

Michael 

Thanks, Michael. We'll try him!
