Rise progress not saving in Moodle
- 4 years ago
Hi Carola! Thanks for sharing about the trouble you're seeing in Moodle. Does your course have an exit course button or link?
Also, have you tested your course in SCORM Cloud to see if the same problem happens in that environment? We're happy to help you with testing if you don't mind sharing your file privately here!
Please allow me to shed some light on SCORM 1.2 and its data limit implications.
The SCORM 1.2 standard has a suspend data limit cap of 4096 characters (Page 41, cmi.suspend_data). This means that course authoring software is unable to reliably use more than 4096 characters for suspend data without an LMS potentially rejecting the additional data.
While this rule is concrete, some LMSs may accept SCORM 1.2 suspend data greater than 4096 characters. This is different for each LMS.
Because each LMS has different behavior, some LMSs might work just fine with these greater suspend data limits (as some have seen), while other LMSs might reject any data that goes above 4096 characters.
