Hello, I am new to Rise and Canvas and before progressing with the course build I need to know if these programs are compatible. Apparently Canvas is not SCORM or AICC compliant. I would prefer to have quiz results recorded in the LMS. Is this achievable? Thanks

Thanks for all this info.To bring together, I finally worked out how to take an Articulate Rise SCORM Module into Canvas as a link, rather than as an assignment. Here is the process I followed. 1. In Canvas, go to Files, and set up the folder that you want to hold the Rise material. You will need to set up a separate folder or subfolder for each Rise module that you want to export. For example, if you have a weekly introductory module, then you will need a separate folder for each week. If you don’t then all of the unzipped Rise files will be jumbled together. You MUST do this before starting the transfer. 2. In Articulate Rise, export your module as a SCORM 1.2 zipped file. Note its location (usually the ‘Download’ folder on your PC). 3. In Canvas, navigate to the relevant folder, and in the top right you will see an Upload button. Click that, and then navigate to the zip file you want to upload. When you click open, you will be invited to expand the file once uploaded – choose this option. Note that the alternative is simply to upload it, without unzipping and I assume you would then have to unzip it in the folder – I didn’t do this. You will then see the upload process – a red bar at the top of the Canvas page. It is quite a slow process. 4. Once uploaded, in Canvas, navigate to the folder called scormcontent and open. Right click on the file index.html and copy the link address. 5. Return to the Modules section of Canvas open the document in which you want to put the link. Open it for editing and click where you want to link to be placed. 6. Click on the link symbol in the toolbar at the top and paste the link in the box that opens. Click the Insert Link button and you should see a link appear on your Canvas page. 7. Be sure to save your change before you leave the page. 8. Clicking on the link brings up the usual Rise webpage.

Hello Janet, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! You can export Rise courses for AICC, SCORM 1.2, and SCORM 2004 4th Edition learning management systems. Just open your Rise course for editing, click Export in the upper right corner of the screen, and choose an LMS specification. A quick Google search turns up this document in the Canvas knowledge base, stating that Canvas also supports SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 4th Edition. The same document explains how to import SCORM files as an assignment in Canvas. Please let us know how it goes!

I know I'm late to the party, but our school uses Canvas and I thought I'd chip in with some tips for implementing Rise content in Canvas. We're using Rise to replace all our lesson content in Canvas, which is about 14,000 lessons. At this time we've converted around 2,700 lessons. My advice: We're moving away from SCORM because we've found that it can break during the Course Copy process. Additionally, we'd rather assess students directly in the LMS (especially with Quizzes.Next now available). Finally, I've been told SCORM hasn't been updated very recently - another reason to move away as technology improves and leaves it behind. We export our Rise courses as web links, upload them to our server, and embed them within Canvas either as an outside link or in the rich text editor through an iframe. If the link is stable on the server, then updating the Rise course on the server should automatically push the update to every Canvas course that has the Rise content in it. I'd be glad to answer any more questions!

Hi James, It's not an LMS I see mentioned here a lot, but if you haven't yet, take a look at the trial of Articulate 360 here! You can export Rise content for LMS and choose SCORM, AICC or Tin Can API and then upload to Canvas to give it a test. If you need anything else let us know!

This might be glaringly obvious to everyone but me, but the Rise or Storyline quiz has to be taken in the Student view in Canvas to get the scores into the Gradebook. I won't tell you how long I spent trying to go through as the course designer!

Thanks, Errol. I have been looking for this answer.

My question is that SCORM material doesn't seem to work on the mobile app. Have you found that to be true?

Elaine, thanks for the question. I had not tried it in the Canvas app, but having just tried, you are correct - it does not open. It works if you access the material via the web on a mobile device but not on the Canvas app. I will raise it with Canvas and see if they have any suggestions. Maybe the Articulate staff could assist also.

  This is our main problem with Canvas. We can't use anything scorm like
  rise, storyline, captivate, etc. because it is not supported in the mobile
  app. Very disappointing.

Elaine, sadly the news from Canvas is not good -

James Jones Aug 3, 2018 1:43 AM advised me that
It doesn't sound like there is a solution. Check out this thread: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/krXVCyoN0MhkPWoGtROrmV?domain=community.canvaslms.com where a couple of heavyweights in Canvas mobile, including the person in charge of developing the mobile apps, discuss things.

Although the subject mentions Storyline and not Rise, there is mention of Rise in there and the issues don't seem limited to just Storyline.

There are so many replies here that I couldn't read them all.

If you didn't find your answer - The quiz will record in the Canvas Gradebook if you import it as a graded item. Then no matter what points you assigned in Rise, Canvas is going to reassign points, so go into the assignment and edit the points possible.

By the way, one more thought. When an LMS is not "SCORM Compliant" it doesn't mean the SCORM file won't work in the LMS. It means that all of the LMS is not compliant with al SCORM regulations and you probably won't be able to pull per-question-quiz analytics. Other than that, it will load and you can set it to report to the Gradebook.

Last I heard they are exploring the ability to be "more" SCORM" compliant as far as per-question-quiz analytics. The great thing is they have been building out a new LMS called Bridge which is designed for corporate talent management and training. The reason I say this is great news for Canvas SCORM users is once they build it for Bridge, they are much more likely to build it out in Canvas.

I had another college call and ask me about adding Rise content to Canvas just yesterday. I did some testing this morning and seems to all work for me, so not sure what issues others are having. Signed up for the Rise/360 trial (we own SL3) and used the Health and Welness sample to test with.

I exported the RISE content for LMS, SCORM 1.2, set 'Track using Quiz Results' and selected the welness quiz, and set reporting for Passed/Failed (this really shouldn't matter since we are only interested in the percentage for points).

Then I used use the SCORM LTI tool in Canvas to upload the .zip, set it as a graded assignment, and that was it.

--

Also tested the content in the Canvas Student App and it launches the external LTI and passes the grade through fine.

Further testing changing the default 100 points on the canvas assignment to something else and points calculate correclty based on percentage.

Mind you, this was a quick test in Canvas wit the Test Student and another course with a student profile, but all seemed to work well. And the dynamic responsive design is SOOOO much nicer than when we were using iframes and the scaling would kill things.
