Publishing in Tin Can API & verbs

Hi Louise,

I'm happy to help!

The Passed and Completion verbs are sent depending on your course's completion criteria.

Here are a couple of examples:

• Course completion based on a set of scored questions (Passed verb):
• Course completion objective based on slides viewed or completion of survey questions (Completed verb): 

Although you can set your course to track multiple completion standards, only one option gets sent to the LMS depending on whichever criteria a learner completes first. 

This means that even if a learner meets multiple criteria, either Passed or Completion can be sent - but not both. 

There are a couple of ways to check which specific verb the course transmits to the LMS. 

• Via the LMS's built-in tracking tool: Some LMS like SCORM Cloud allows administrators to view and search for xAPI statements that a course generates. 

• Via the browser's Network Monitoring tool. xAPI tracking is done via HTTP Requests which you can inspect by enabling the network monitoring console. Here's a good example:

I hope this helps.
