Retaking test will affect the LMS scoring
Jun 20, 2017
Hi Everyone,
I have viewed a few posts regarding how LMS tracking works but I can't seem to find an answer to my particular query:
I am creating some modules with a series of exercises with a test at the end of each exercise. Each exercise will link to its own test and each test will have a results slide. I want to allow the user the option to retake each test from this results slide if they wish.
I've also added an overall results slide which is fed by the results slide in each of the tests and will also allow the user to retry any of the tests. This overall results slide is what the LMS will look at for tracking.
My question is will the LMS scoring still work properly if a user retries a test and this changes the overall score? I am imagining that the score will be recorded on whatever the score on the overall results slide is when the module is exited but just wanted to check with someone who knows.
Thanks,
Louis

Hi Louis--you got it right! The overall results slide will send the score when the learner exits the course. You can test this out by publishing for LMS and uploading it to SCORM Cloud, a handy and free tool for LMS testing.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks Alyssa, good to know I'm on the right track. I'll try it out when I have my first module finished and give you a shout if I get stuck. Thanks again...
Absolutely, Louis! Good luck, and give me a shout if you have any more questions!
