Hello! We have a situation where we want to send an exam score to our LMS (Saba Cloud), but we don't want the answers (and questions, if possible) to be viewable by the learner after they finish the exam. In other words, the only data we want them to be able to access is their score and whether they passed.
Can this be done in Storyline?
Hi Jillian,
Great question! I understand that you would like some more information on how to limit the data seen by the learner. I'd love to help you out with that!
Storyline sends the data to the LMS. Currently, there is no way to limit the data that is sent to the LMS. Once the data is received by the LMS, only the admin will have access to data.
I hope this clarifies things!
Hi John,
Thank you for your reply. That was my suspiscion when I looked at the info. from that link. Quick follow-up: it looks like under cmi5 xAPI Storyline sends the learner response in a string. It doesn't look like it sends the correct answer. Am I reading that correctly? Also does the string it sends with the data about the answer selection something a user could read and understand if they gained access to it?
Thank you again!
Hi Jillian,
I'm happy to jump in here! Yes, that is correct that the response is reported as a unique string of characters assigned by Storyline, that your LMS uses to determine how the learner answered the question. The only way a learner will be able to access the data is if the LMS admin chooses to share it.
Please note that the exact data reported may vary depending on which LMS you use. I recommend reaching out to your LMS administrator to confirm if this is an option, or if there is a particular setting you need to use within the LMS.
I hope this helps!
Thanks, Kelly! Our LMS has told us they don't control that information, and it lies in the authoring software, but as we know, that's not the case. I appreciate you confirming for me.
