Multi-Language Course - Publish to LMS with Unique Name for Each Scene

Is it possible to publish my 28-language course to my LMS and display the unique name for each scene (language) in the LMS report? 

Example: Code of Conduct (Course Title) Espanol (Language)

Currently, the LMNS report displays the Title of the entire course, but no sub-titles that could indicate the Language in the report. 

 

Thanks for any insight on this query,

  • It sounds like the report will be picking up the course title that is defined in the imsmanifest.xml document, and the course title is generally not changing on a per user basis.

    The only way this could be changed, is if the report can be changed on the LMS side. The LMS will be pulling the title of the course from a pre-defined table column. There will be one course title per course.

    In order for you to add the language to the course, you would:

    1. Need to set a SCORM data model element value with the title required, for example Code of Conduct (Espanol). A SCORM data model element that is well supported by LMS and is not used by Storyline is cmi.comments. Using some JavaScript, when the user selects their chose language, this data model element could be set like this (javascript trigger) 
      SCORM_CallLMSSetValue
      ("cmi.comments", "Code of Conduct (Espanol)")
       
    2. Need to be able to customise the LMS report so that it pulls the title from a different source, and accessed the SCORM cmi.comments data model element on a per user basis. You will need to talk to your LMS admin/consultants to talk about a custom report, as the title will be on a per user basis.

    Thanks,
    Sam
