Features

The Moodle app SCORM player enables the playing of SCORM 1.2 packages online and offline.

When a user loses connectivity, offline mode is enabled automatically and all interactions that are tracked by the SCORM package are saved.

When a user is online again, the offline attempt is synchronised back to the Moodle site, either merging it with other incomplete attempts on the site or saving it as a new attempt.

Requirements

The Moodle app SCORM player requires Moodle 3.0 onwards. In Site administration > Plugins > Activity Modules > SCORM Package the setting 'Protect package downloads' should be disabled (default setting).

The Moodle app SCORM player may be used on sites running Moodle 2.6 to Moodle 2.9 if the Moodle app additional features plugin is installed.

If the playing of SCORM packages offline is not desired, the setting 'Protect package downloads' may be enabled. If the Moodle app additional features plugin is being used, the setting can be found in Site administration > Plugins > Local plugins > Moodle Mobile additional features.

The ZIP file containing the SCORM contents should not be Windows specific. If your SCORM package contains directories using the inverted path separator "\" they won't work in Android.

The Moodle app SCORM player provides support for:

  • SCORM 1.2 packages
  • Objectives, interactions and prerequisites
  • SCO navigation via nav.event
