Greetings, I'm building module for which I will be making custom menu with branching. What are my options regarding gradeing. Each branch should have different questions. Module will be published as SCORM 1.2 to customer LMS. How is grading in this case? Can I have grade for single branch so student can later start second branch and have that grade saved too or?Preventing Learners from Forcing Completion/Score via Browser Developer Tools in Storyline 360
Hello Community, Iām an eLearning developer working with Articulate Storyline 360 and SCORM-based LMS tracking. Recently, we discovered that a learner was able to manipulate browser developer tools to artificially mark a course as completed/passed with a high scoreāwithout actually attempting the quiz or interacting with the content. I understand that SCORM communication happens client-side, so absolute prevention may not be possible. However, Iād like to learn from the community: What best-practice approaches do you recommend to harden Storyline courses against this type of manipulation? Are there recommended design patterns for gating completion so that it is only issued after legitimate quiz completion? Have you used centralized or conditional commit logic (for example, allowing LMS communication only after passing the final assessment)? Any experience with LMS-side configurations that significantly reduce this risk? Are there known strategies for detecting suspicious behavior (e.g., unrealistically fast completion)? My goal is to reduce risk, raise the technical barrier, and follow industry best practicesāeven if 100% prevention isnāt feasible. Thanks in advance for any guidance or examples youāre willing to share.Peer Pod Coming Soon: āNew to Instructional Designā ā Whoās Joining Us?

Iām running into an issue with a scene in my course and hoping someone might have ideas. The interaction works like this: the learner selects an object, a layer opens with a video that plays on that layer, the layer automatically closes when the timeline ends, and the selected object then changes to its completed state. The problem is that after the layer auto-closes, some objects do change to the Completed state, but others donāt, and which ones fail seems completely random. Thereās no consistent pattern. Iāve tried troubleshooting the triggers, variables, object states, and even replacing the PNGs, but the behavior still occurs unpredictably. I know this may be difficult to diagnose without the Storyline file, but has anyone encountered something similar or have ideas on what could cause this?Whatās New in Articulate 360 š
