Maximising E-Learning with SCORM Settings in Moodle

Maximising E-Learning with SCORM Settings in Moodle

by | Apr 29, 2025 | Articulate, Articulate 360, e-learning, LMS, Moodle, Rise, Storyline

Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) plays a pivotal role in e-learning, facilitating the creation, sharing, and tracking of training materials across platforms. Moodle, as a leading Learning Management System (LMS), offers extensive support for SCORM, allowing educators to deliver and manage SCORM packages effectively. This article dives into the SCORM settings in Moodle, offering insights on configuration, best practices, and leveraging SCORM for effective learning.

Overview of SCORM

SCORM, the de facto industry standard for e-learning content, specifies how online learning materials and Learning Management Systems communicate and interact. It ensures content compatibility and tracking across different LMS platforms.

The Importance of SCORM in E-Learning

SCORM’s universal standards for content interoperability and tracking make it indispensable in the realm of e-learning. It allows educators to create modular and reusable learning objects that can be easily imported, tracked, and reported within Moodle.

Setting Up SCORM in Moodle

To get started with SCORM in Moodle, educators need to upload their SCORM packages through the course administration panel. This process involves basic configuration options like defining the package name, description, and uploading the SCORM zip file.

Basic Configuration Options
  • Name and Description: Clearly define the name and provide a description of the SCORM activity.
  • Uploading SCORM Packages: Upload the .zip file containing the SCORM package. Moodle automatically unpacks and processes the content.

Advanced SCORM Settings

Moodle offers advanced settings to tailor how SCORM packages are presented and how learner interactions are tracked.

Appearance Settings
  • Display Options: Customise how the SCORM package appears to learners, including options for window size and display features.
Availability and Access Restrictions
  • Access Control: Set availability dates and prerequisite conditions for accessing the SCORM activity.
Tracking Settings
  • Attempt Management: Configure settings related to learner attempts, including the number of attempts allowed and how they are handled.
Grading and Completion Settings
  • Grading Methods: Choose how scores from SCORM packages are calculated and reported in Moodle’s gradebook.
  • Completion Criteria: Specify criteria for marking the SCORM activity as completed, such as viewing a certain percentage of slides or achieving a minimum score.

Best Practices for Using SCORM in Moodle

  • Optimise SCORM Content: Ensure SCORM packages are optimised for web delivery, keeping file sizes reasonable and navigation intuitive.
  • Troubleshooting Common Issues: Familiarise yourself with common SCORM issues in Moodle, such as tracking problems or content display issues, and know how to address them.

Leveraging SCORM for Effective Learning

Integrating SCORM packages with Moodle’s activities and resources can create a rich, interactive learning environment. Blended learning strategies, combining SCORM with forums, quizzes, and assignments, can significantly enhance learning outcomes.

SCORM Compliance and Compatibility

Ensuring SCORM Compliance: When creating or sourcing SCORM packages, ensure they are compliant with SCORM 1.2 or 2004 standards for seamless integration with Moodle.

Compatibility with Different Moodle Versions: Check compatibility between SCORM versions and your Moodle installation to prevent issues with content uploading and tracking.

SCORM settings in Moodle offer a robust framework for delivering, tracking, and managing e-learning content effectively. By understanding and leveraging these settings, educators can enhance the learning experience, ensuring that content is not only engaging and interactive but also compliant and trackable across platforms. As e-learning continues to evolve, the integration of SCORM in Moodle remains a key component in delivering high-quality, standardised education globally.

Moodle SCORM Activity Settings

Moodle SCORM Activity Settings

by | Jan 8, 2024 | Articulate, Articulate 360, e-learning, LMS, Moodle, Storyline

This blog post aims to assist users to better understand the new improvements made to the activity completion settings for SCORM packages in Moodle 4.1 when compared to Moodle 3.9.

Throughout this article, we will use Moodle 3.9 as a baseline example and compare how these same activity completion settings function in Moodle 4.1 for SCORM packages.

Let’s begin by setting up a SCORM activity in Moodle 3.9 with the following activity completion criteria defined:

SCORM activity in Moodle 3.9

In this example, for the activity to be marked complete for the user, they are required to:

  • View the activity
  • Require status
    • Achieve Completed status
    • Or, Require all scos to return completion status

Note: Based on the criteria defined above, in Moodle 3.9 and below, users must satisfy both the View activity criteria, and require one of the selected statuses (Completed, or Require all scos to return completion status) for the Require status criteria to be satisfied.

View activity criteria

Now let’s have our test user attempt the SCORM package:

    Attempt the SCORM package

    The user has achieved a ‘Passed’ status on the SCORM attempt and will have the SCORM activity module marked complete on their course page:

    Passed SCORM package

    This activity was marked complete because they satisfied the “View activity” and “Require all scos to return completion status” criteria. In summary, as long as one of the Require status criteria is met, it will satisfy the entire condition.

    Now let’s attempt the above process in Moodle 4.1 to demonstrate the improvements and how they function differently from Moodle 3.9.

    With the SCORM package activity completion setup identically to Moodle 3.9 above, here is how the SCORM package will appear for our students on the course page:

    SCORM package activity completion setup

    You will notice that the first difference is that the individual activity completion criteria are displayed to users on the course page.

    Let’s have our user attempt this SCORM package:

    users attempt this SCORM package

    The activity will appear as follows for the user on the course page:

    SCORM activity on course page

    Despite the package returning a ‘Passed’ status similar to Moodle 3.9, the activity is not marked complete for this student. Even though the packages are setup identically in Moodle 3.9 and Moodle 4.1, the package calculates activity completion differently in Moodle 4.1. In this updated version of Moodle, the activity completion criteria requires the student to satisfy ALL the criteria defined. In this scenario, the user is required to:

    • View the activity
    • Require the completion status (Complete the activity)
    • Require all scos to return completion status. (Do all parts of this activity)

    In summary, for the Require Status completion criteria to be marked complete, the user is required to satisfy both the nested conditions (Complete the activity and Do all parts of this activity) for it to be met. Comparing this to Moodle 3.9, the user was only required to satisfy one of the nested conditions.

    If you find that the activity completion requirements are no longer being met in your updated site we advise updating these settings for the SCORM activity by selecting only one of the choices for ‘passed’, ‘complete’ or ‘require all scos to return completion status’. You can apply this by:

     

    • creating a new SCORM activity and hiding/restricting the old one,
    • creating a new version of the course using the backup and restore functionality, updating the SCORM activity completion settings and enrolling new users into the updated version moving forward
    • unlocking the activity completion requirements and updating the current settings. If choosing to unlock the activity completion requirements, it is important to consider the implications of the loss of data by performing this action.

      7 ways you can make your Moodle courses more interactive

      7 ways you can make your Moodle courses more interactive

      by | Jan 31, 2023 | e-learning, LMS, Moodle

      Making Moodle courses more interactive is a great way to engage students and increase their participation and retention. Here are some tips and tricks to help you make your Moodle courses more interactive: 

      Use multimedia

      Moodle allows you to add multimedia elements such as videos, images, and audio to your courses. By incorporating these elements, you can make your courses more engaging and interactive. For example, you can use videos to introduce new concepts, images to illustrate key points, and audio to provide audio instructions. You can also use screen recording tools to create interactive video tutorials that can be used to guide students through a particular process or concept.

      Use multimedia

      Use forums and discussion boards

      Moodle has built-in forums and discussion boards that allow students to interact with each other and with the teacher. These tools can be used to facilitate discussions, ask questions, and provide feedback. By creating open-ended questions or discussions, you can encourage students to express their opinions and share their thoughts. You can also use these tools to create peer-review assignments, where students can provide feedback on each other’s work.

      Moodle forums & discussion boards

      Use quizzes and assessments

      Moodle has a variety of quizzes and assessments that can be used to test students’ knowledge and understanding. These tools can be used to provide immediate feedback and to encourage students to participate more actively in the course. You can also use these tools to create interactive quizzes, where students can get immediate feedback on their answers and see explanations for the correct answers.

      Moodle quizzes and assessments

      Advanced Reporting

      Moodle provides a great selection of reports for both administrators and teachers to conduct their e-learning. Despite this wide array of reports, some administrators and teachers may require additional reports that provide their organisations with advanced information. With Virtual Slate, our interactive dashboards allow you to report against your courses, activities, and users and view detailed reports.

      Dashboards

      Use collaborative tools

      Moodle has a variety of collaborative tools such as wikis, blogs, and group assignments that allow students to work together on projects and assignments. These tools can be used to encourage collaboration and teamwork among students. By creating group projects, you can foster a sense of community among students, and give them opportunities to learn from each other.

      Moodle Collaborative tools

      Use gamification techniques

      Gamification is the use of game elements and design techniques in non-game contexts. You can use gamification techniques to make your Moodle courses more interactive and engaging by incorporating elements such as points, badges, and leaderboards. By making learning feel like a game, students will be more motivated to participate and engage with the course material.

      Moodle Badges and Gamification

      Use feedback and analytics

      Moodle has built-in analytics and feedback tools that allow you to track student progress and engagement. These tools can be used to identify areas where students are struggling and to adjust your teaching methods accordingly. By using these tools, you can get a better sense of what’s working and what’s not, and make changes to your courses to make them more interactive and effective.

      Feedback and analytics

      Incorporating these tips and tricks into your Moodle courses can help to make them more interactive and engaging for your students. However, it’s important to remember that every class and every student is different, so it may take some experimentation to find the best approach for your specific situation. Don’t be afraid to ask for student feedback, and be open to adjusting your approach as needed. With the right strategies in place, you can create an interactive and engaging learning experience that will help your students to succeed.
