My SCORM Module doesn't function properly

  • Make sure you are running Moodle 1.9.3 or 1.8.7 or higher, a large number of SCORM related bugs have been fixed in these versions.
  • Make sure your SCORM object is SCORM compliant - check it in an external SCORM player like Reload to see if it works there.
  • Post a copy of your SCORM object in the SCORM Repository and post a message asking for help in the forums, linking to your SCORM object explaining exactly what you expect to happen, and what is happening instead.

What version of SCORM is supported?

  • SCORM 1.2 is supported in Moodle 1.9.3 and Moodle 1.8.7 and passes all the tests in the ADL Conformance test suite 1.2..7 for SCORM 1.2. (This is not the same as being certified SCORM 1.2 compliant, but it is the level that must be attained before Moodle can apply for certification.)
  • SCORM 2004 is not completely supported in Moodle at this stage. Parts of the API have been implemented, but others such as Navigation and Sequencing have not yet been implemented. It is unlikely at this stage that it will be completed by the time Moodle 2.0 is released, however it is being actively worked on.
  • AICC objects are supported in Moodle 1.9.3 or 1.8.7 and higher - unfortunately the availability of publicly accessible AICC objects is limited, so testing has been rather difficult. If you have any AICC objects you are willing to share, please upload them to the SCORM Repository
  • SCORM 2.0 has not been released yet by ADL, and Moodle does not support any of it at this stage.

What you can do to help in the SCORM Forum

When trying to engage the community to help with a problem you are facing, you will get a better response if you follow a few simple guidelines:

  • be prepared to provide a SCORM package that illustrates your problem - if you don't then it will be very difficult for anyone offering assistance to recreate your situation - a real barrier to help.
  • always start your report with version information - preferably the information displayed on the Admin -> Environment panel eg. http://localhost/moodle/admin/environment.php where http://localhost/moodle is your particular prefix. With this it will be clear how you are running your Moodle instance, on what platform, and at which version. This will quickly expose issues where a simple upgrade will solve your problem.
