How to create SCORM teaching materials

How to create SCORM teaching materials

How to Create SCORM Educational Materials This article provides examples of how to create teaching materials for learningBOX using SCORM 1.2. Please note that some of the examples may not work outside of learningBOX (in such cases, a cautionary statement will be included). Also, please note that this article has been verified with learningBOX 2.16.14, and older versions or future releases may not give identical results. Click here for Table of Contents What are SCORM materials in learningBOX? Minimum SCORM materials [File Structure Information that can be sent within the SCORM 1.2 specification Unique extensions to learningBOX Anti-patterns What are SCORM teaching materials in learningBOX? In learningBOX, SCORM 1.2 compliant teaching materials can be uploaded and used. (*As of learningBOX 2.16.14, uploading SCORM archives (ZIP files) consisting of multiple SCOs is not supported. Also, please note that SCORM versions other than 1.2, such as SCORM 2004, are not supported.) Minimum SCORM teaching materials [File Structure]. In learningBOX, if the startup file is index.html, the manifest file (imsmanifest.xml: a file showing the structure inside the ZIP file) is not necessary. Therefore, if only the index.html file is zipped, it can be used as SCORM material (however, almost all LMS require the imsmanifest.xml file; QuizGenerator, CardGenerator, etc. require the imsmanifest.xml file for compatibility). QuizGenerator, CardGenerator, etc. output imsmanifest.xml for compatibility). Notes on creating a ZIP file When compiling educational materials into a ZIP file, please select and compress the files as shown below. As in the bad example, selecting a folder and compressing it may create an extra folder hierarchy and cause trouble. Also, in the case of Mac, if you use the OS standard ZIP archive function, extra files will be saved, so unnecessary files will be mixed in the problem! Please compress with reference to "Be careful when compressing zip on Mac" etc. Exploring the API When the startup file (e.g. index.html) is loaded, the SCORM API is searched. In SCORM 1.2, the name of the API is "API". You can always find it by starting from the iframe or frame that contains the teaching material and working your way up the hierarchy. In learningBOX 2.16 and later, the API is also provided in the preview screen of the teaching material, but the preview screen does not save the grades. Code Example The API is searched by onload, and the variable "API for teaching materials" is used to access the API. If the API is found, API Found is displayed on the console; if not, API not Found is displayed on the console. (Referenced by) gist URL https://gist.github.com/ynishi2014/8d1d951966d12d49c1eee898b4bacc17 Execution example When mounted on learningBOX, the SCORM API can be found, so the API found is displayed. If you run it on a local drive, for example, the API cannot be found, so the message "API not found" is displayed. LMSInitialize and LMSFinish Once the API is found, LMSInitialize is executed. Execute LMSFinish when the study is completed. In QuizGenerator, LMSFinish is executed at the timing of displaying the grading results, but in most learning materials that can be created with learningBOX, LMSFinish is executed at the timing of onunloading the HTML of the learning materials. Please note that grades cannot be sent before executing LMSInitialize or after executing LMSFinish. Code Example (Referenced by) gist URL https://gist.github.com/ynishi2014/d44930df2eddaa2f4140aab078e5e86f Execution example When executed in learningBOX, the following is displayed. However, since the learning status (cmi.core.lesson_status) is not updated, it appears that no grades are left on learningBOX. This is because the grades with cmi.core.lesson_status browsed are treated as invalid grades in the learningBOX. SCORM materials that only pass In LMSSetValue, setting cmi.core.lesson_status to passed will result in a pass. Code Example (Reference) gist URL https://gist.github.com/ynishi2014/4eb9a00dff3ff867d51192548471a919 Statuses that can be sent The values that can be sent to cmi.core.lesson_status as grades include incomplete: learning in progress completed: completed passed: Passed failed: failed failed: failed ・browsed: not displayed Behavior when grades are not sent If you do not send grades, the following will occur. First time study: results will be "browsed" (will not be displayed) Second and subsequent studies: The grades from the previous study are retained. Therefore, you need to be careful about the behavior when you close the course before the grade is determined. With QuizGenerator, since browsed is set in cmi.core.lesson_status at the beginning, if the lesson is closed before starting to answer, browsed will be recorded and it will appear that no grades are left. To check the operation It is best to check with the LMS you plan to use, but since learningBOX is available free of charge and indefinitely for up to 10 users, it may be easy to use it as an environment for developing SCORM teaching materials and checking its operation. Visualizing API calls Visualizing API calls can improve development efficiency. Due to the size of the article, we will summarize this in another article. Information that can be sent within the SCORM 1.2 specification In addition to the status (cmi.core.lesson_status) mentioned earlier, the following grades can be sent. By sending these, you can get detailed information on how learning is progressing, which can lead to analysis of the learning situation, appropriate feedback to the learner, and improvement of the teaching materials. Score (cmi.core.score.raw) This is a score. In SCORM 1.2, it can be an integer between 0 and 100 in "string" format. Example API.LMSSetValue("cmi.core.score.raw", "100"); LMSSetValue("cmi.core.score.raw", score.toFixed(0)); Original Extension In learningBOX, scores above 100 are allowed. For example, 105 and 400 are accepted as valid scores. However, please note that negative numbers and decimals are not accepted. Also, in LMSs other than learningBOX, scores exceeding 100 will result in an error. Time (cmi.core.session_time) Learning time. In the case of learningBOX, it is automatically measured when LMSInitialize and LMSFinish are executed. If you want to measure more accurate learning time than the time between opening and closing the material, please measure it in the material and send it to us. In QuizGenerator, only the time from when you start solving a question to when the results display screen appears, and in video materials, only the time when the video is playing is transmitted. The following will give you 1 hour, 2 minutes, and 3 seconds. Example API.LMSSetValue("cmi.core.session_time", "01:02:03"); Information per question This is a child item of cmi.interactions.n. n must be specified in order starting from 0. Starting from 1, skipping numbers, or going back to a smaller number is prohibited. ID (cmi.interactions.n.id) ID. It is displayed in the grade details screen as shown in the red box in the screenshot below. Please note, however, that negative numbers and decimals are not allowed. If you plan to download and use grades via CSV or retrieve and use grades via API, you must specify the appropriate ID. latency (cmi.interactions.n.latency) The time required. The following information is displayed in the grade details screen. correct_responses (cmi.interactions.n.correct_responses.m.pattern) This is an example of correct responses. More than one can be specified, but only one seems to be set in most cases. objectives (cmi.interactions.n.objectives.m.id) The objective of each question, i.e., the purpose or goal to be achieved. The value in the format s:xxx is used for section tags, and the value in the format q:xxx is used for question tags. student_response (cmi.interactions.n.student_response) The student's response. It sends the input string, choice numbers, etc. time (cmi.interactions.n.time) Study time. The time spent on the question is sent. result (cmi.interactions.n.result) Sends correct/wrong results. Neutral and score can also be sent. Unique extensions to learningBOX Normally, cmi.interactions.n.student_response cannot send HTML. Sending answers in HTML Of course, you can send HTML tags, but the results screen will display the HTML tags you sent as is. If you specify html in cmi.interactions.n.student_response_format, the values sent to cmi.interactions.n.student_response will be interpreted and displayed as HTML. However, JavaScript is restricted so that it cannot be executed. Relaxation of character count limit Start time / End time (to be supported in 2.18 or later) This function is used to record the start time and end time of learning. This function will be available in learningBOX 2.18 or later. (Scheduled for release in June 2022) Anti-pattern [Excessive LMSCommit When LMSCommit is executed, the value set in LMSSetValue is saved. Many LMSs do not send data to the server at LMSSetValue, but send data to the server at the timing of LMSCommit. This is because the process of sending data to the server takes a relatively long time, and if communication were to take place each time LMSSetValue is executed, processing would be time-consuming. For example, if the number of questions is 100, the number of LMSSetValues per question is 6, and the communication delay is 10 ms, then 100 x 6 x 10 = 6000 ms, which means that it takes 6 seconds to send results. If you are using the system from overseas, the communication delay can be 10 times or more, so LMSCommit should not be executed excessively. When LMSCommit should be executed It should be executed after sending cmi.core.lesson_status or after LMSSetValue of all grades is finished. By sending "complete" to cmi.core.lesson_status and executing LMSCommit when learning has started, the grades seen by others (teachers, administrators, etc.) will change to "learning". After the LMSSetValue of all grades has been completed, LMSCommit and LMSFinish should be executed in that order. (*In learnngBOX, even if LMSCommit is not executed before LMSFinish, the process of sending grades is still executed, so LMSFinish alone is acceptable.) Do not do LMSFinish LMSFinish must be executed at the end of the process. Since the SCORM specification stipulates that LMSFinish must be executed, there is no guarantee of behavior if LMSFinish is not executed. LMSSetValue without checking the implementation SCORM 1.2 compliant LMSs do not necessarily implement all the SCORM 1.2 specifications. The SCORM 1.2 specification (API) contains a mixture of items that must be implemented and items that are allowed without implementation. Therefore, before executing LMSSetValue, you should check whether the element you are trying to send is implemented. If you have any problems Please contact our support.

[Recommended for video training! What is learningBOX's video delivery system?

Recommended for video training! What is learningBOX's video delivery system? Nice to meet you. My name is Okuda, PM (Project Manager) of the Development Department. In this article, I would like to introduce the video delivery system of learningBOX. Our e-learning system is an LMS that allows anyone to easily create teaching materials and upload video content. The delivery specifications are based on the "streaming method," which is also commonly used by delivery sites around the world. There are several methods available for learningBOX, including streaming, so we will introduce them here. Click here for the table of contents. 1. What video on demand (VOD) services are recommended for e-learning 2. Characteristics of Streaming Distribution and Download Distribution 3. Streaming technology used by LearningBox 4. Premium plan is recommended to watch videos in high quality! 5. Summary What is the recommended video on demand (VOD) service for e-learning? VOD stands for "video on demand." It is a service that allows you to watch movies and dramas at a fixed price over the Internet. This service allows you to watch movies on PCs, smartphones, tablets, game consoles, and various other devices in your home via the Internet or mobile communication lines. There are various types of VOD services, ranging from those that specialize in movies to those that distribute mostly domestic dramas. Youtube, for example, is a free video streaming service. Video distribution on the Internet Currently, video distribution over the Internet allows users to enjoy movies and dramas through subscription video services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. There are also many other types of video distribution services that allow users to participate and post their own videos, such as YouTube and Tik Tok, live streaming services such as Instalive, and webinars (webinars), which have a variety of audience sizes. The devices on which videos can be viewed also vary widely, with most of them supporting viewing on PCs, tablets, and smartphones as standard. Characteristics of Streaming Distribution and Download Distribution There are two major types of on-demand delivery: streaming delivery and download delivery. *On-demand delivery is a method in which content that has been created in advance and uploaded to a server is viewed at the timing requested by the viewer. What is Streaming Delivery? Streaming is a technology for comfortably viewing large files such as videos through communication lines. Since large data on the server is loaded little by little and played back sequentially, the viewer can watch without worrying about the time required for downloading or the HD capacity of the device. What is download distribution? Downloading is a method in which all data is downloaded to the terminal before playback begins. Before the spread of streaming, downloading was a common video delivery method. In this method, the video or other data is downloaded from the distributor to the user's terminal and then played back. Transition from downloading to streaming Just as the U.S. music market shifted from downloading to streaming around 2015, streaming has become the mainstream trend in video distribution. In the past, video data was downloaded completely to the device side, and the video file was played separately. In the past, video data was downloaded completely to the terminal side, and video files were played back separately. In addition, some systems limit the playback player or use a system linked to DRM (Digital Rights Management) to playback the data. However, with the spread of 4G and 5G lines and broadband, transmission speeds have improved year by year, and new streaming standards have emerged, and streaming distribution is being shifted to prevent storage pressure on terminals and to protect copyrights by preventing content redistribution. Of course, downloading has not disappeared, and there are still services that offer downloadable distribution. In particular, in response to the needs for offline viewing, such as "I want to watch on my tablet or smartphone even when I am out of the house and cannot connect to the Internet," some subscription-based distribution services from various companies have prepared dedicated applications that allow downloading in a way that takes content protection into consideration. Streaming technology used by learningBOX Here we introduce the delivery method used by learningBOX. The learningBOX has two versions of the Movie Player, version 1 and version 2, with different delivery formats. Version 1 uses the "progressive download method" and version 2 uses the "HLS streaming method. Let's take a look at the features of each. Progressive Download Method Progressive download, also called "pseudo-streaming," is a method in which content is actually temporarily stored in the cache of a PC or smartphone for playback. Even in poor communication environments, once the data is imported, it can be played back smoothly. On the other hand, since the content remains temporarily on the device, there are concerns about copyright protection and hard disk space consumption. HLS Streaming Method Unlike the progressive download method described above, the "streaming method" only transfers the video being played to the user and does not leave data on the terminal. Basically, as long as the Internet environment has sufficient transmission speed, smooth playback is possible, and the hard disk is not overwhelmed even during long playback times. The HLS (=HTTP Live Streaming) format is a streaming transmission protocol developed by Apple Inc. It is the most widely used streaming standard today. You can check which version of learningBOX is currently specified in the "Learning Preferences" and you can change the version. Please use it according to your environment. To view videos in high quality, we recommend the Premium Plan! The quality of video playback varies depending on the learningBOX plan you use. The higher the plan you subscribe to, the higher quality videos you can upload. No matter how high the quality of the video data you have at hand, the quality may appear inferior if the plan you have subscribed to does not apply to your plan. When using video materials, choose a plan that fits your environment so that learners can learn without stress. For more information on pricing plans, please refer to the learningBOX pricing plan here. Click here for recommended articles on ▼Video Conclusion In this article, we have introduced learningBOX's video delivery system. Our e-learning system is an LMS that allows anyone to easily create teaching materials and upload video content. Even those with no programming knowledge can easily start e-learning, and free trials are available. We also recommend this one!

Depending on the setting of the grading conditions, content can be displayed in a flexible manner. Here's an example of how to use the linked content settings!

In particular, if a learner fails to pass the course material, the system will not allow the learner to finish the course without passing it, but will set up content for review so that the learner can deepen his or her understanding of the material and avoid leaving unfamiliar parts of the course as they are. The content is not normally displayed, but hidden content can be displayed only when the learner passes or fails a particular material.

In my previous article, I introduced "design customization," which allows you to customize the design of learningBOX to your liking. ⇒Please refer to the article "How to customize the design of learningBOX. This article recommends that customers who want to customize the design of learningBOX freely by themselves should read this article. This article is recommended for customers who want to customize the design of learningBOX by themselves. We will introduce the "Site Customizer function" that has been added to learningBOX since Ver. 2.15. Click here for the Table of Contents 1. What is the "Site Customizer" function? 2. difference between design customization and site customizer function 3. how to use the Site Customizer function 4. summary What is the Site Customizer function? You can change the design of learningBOX by yourself. As with the design customization, this function is only available to those who have applied for the paid option. In this article, we would like to introduce three advantages and features that we particularly recommend when using the Site Customizer function. Three major advantages of the Site Customizer feature Security! 2. "From mail setting" that gives users a sense of trust 3. Highly flexible design using "HTML/CSS Security! The "Advanced Login Form Settings" are easy to configure for security purposes. You can prevent the automatic entry of passwords, restrict the login of users who belong to other environments, and set login authentication keys on the login form. By setting up these functions, not only customers but also users can use e-learning with greater peace of mind. From Mail Settings" to give users a sense of trust When a customer sends an e-mail to a user, our domain address is specified by default. However, by using the "From Mail Settings", you can change the source address for each of your sub-domains. For example, when learningBOX is used by an educational institution, the school usually sends an e-mail to the student using our domain address, but by changing the From mail setting, the school can freely change the sender's address, and the student will be able to see the sender's address. By changing the From mail setting, schools are free to change the sender's address, and students can receive e-mails with peace of mind by knowing the sender's address is clear. Although we have used an educational institution as an example, it is also applicable to companies, etc., so that users can receive e-mails based on trust. ⇒For more detailed information, please refer to the "Site Customizer" page.

How to set the From email not to be classified as spam.

How to set up From mail so that it is not classified as spam First of all, SPF stands for "Sender Policy Framework" and is a security technology to prevent emails from being misidentified as spoofed emails. SPF settings can prevent the "From mail address change" available in the Design Customizer and Site Customizer from preventing emails from being delivered to learners. In this article, we will show you how to deal with From mail being sorted as junk mail. Click here for Table of Contents 1. What is SPF setting? 2. the procedure for SPF setting 3. summary What is SPF setting? This is a setting to explicitly state that this e-mail address is allowed to be delivered from this mail server. If an e-mail is delivered without SPF setting, it is more likely to be judged as spam because the "IP address" of the mail server from which the "domain" is sent cannot be authenticated. Therefore, by setting SPF, it proves that the From mail address is not "illegally used by a third party" and is less likely to be classified as junk mail. Procedure for SPF setting The SPF setting is configured from the management screen (DNS server) of the domain management company with which you have a contract, not from the management screen of learningBOX. The domain management company refers to the company you used to acquire your domain. By checking the domain part of your e-mail address, you can find out which domain management company you have contracted with. Apply for DNS settings with the domain management company You need to apply for DNS settings with your domain management company. DNS is a system for managing and operating domain names. Please refer to the page of each domain management company for the application procedure. 2. configure SPF on the DNS settings screen Our learningBOX uses "Amazon SES" mail servers. Enter the following information on the management screen of the domain management company to configure SPF settings. *As for the host part, it will be blank or @ depending on the DNS service. If your domain already has an SPF record, add an Amazon SES include statement before ~all using the following format "v=spf1 existing settings include:amazonses.com ~all" To configure SPF settings at Name.com Configure the SPF settings from the control panel of Name.com. Please refer to the support information on Name.com for more details. To configure SPF settings on Xserver Conclusion In this issue, we introduced SPF settings to prevent From mail from being classified as spam. IT terms such as "SPF" and "DNS" may sound difficult to understand, but it is possible to prevent discrepancies in perception between administrators and learners, such as "I thought I sent a From mail, but it was classified as junk mail and did not reach the learner. In addition, countermeasures against "spoofed e-mails" are essential to increase the delivery rate of e-mails to learners. Among them, SPF settings are important as a mechanism to clear suspicions of abuse of e-mail addresses. The design customization and site customizer functions are paid options that allow you to freely change the e-mail address including the sender (From) for each subdomain. By clarifying the sender, learners can receive emails with peace of mind. Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in this service.
