SCORM variable handling/custom manipulation?

Apr 15, 2013

Hi,

I'm test driving Articulate Storyline for my organization and first, let me say, excellent product.  Storyline is far more intuitive and produces a much better product than say, Lectora.

However, I've hit a snag in development.  I need to be able to control the completion variables so that they will report to our LMS and display:

Percent Complete as 100 (which I believe comes from cmi.core.lesson.status)

Score as 100% (which I believe comes from cmi.core.score.raw)

Item Status as Completed (which I believe comes from cmi.success_status)

Right now the only way that I've been able to make this happen is by including a quiz & results slide in the course...but I would prefer to use the SCORM Tracking option that sets completion based on the number of slides viewed (rather than a test, since this course does not require a test).  We build a lot of courses that don't require a test, but we need to report all three of the above variables as "Passed, Completed, and 100%" for report purposes.

I've browsed through the published files to see if I can figure out how to manipulate those variable through JavaScript executed from a trigger in Storyline, but I haven't had any success.

I'm currently publishing to SCORM 1.2 (although 2004 is an option as well).

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

-Mike
