What should I do to prepare my CourseArc content for export to SCORM 1.2?

Modified on Tue, 10 Feb at 2:35 PM

CourseArc's SCORM Export feature generates SCORM 1.2 packages from the module level of a course. Users with the following roles can export a course module to the SCORM 1.2 format: System Administrators, Course Administrators, and Course Leaders.

Single Page Modules

If the last page of a module—including modules that consist of a single page—has scored or interactive activities, a learner's score cannot be calculated accurately.

Any module with a scored or interactive activity on its last page should have an additional non-interactive page (i.e., no scored or interactive activities) added to the end of the module to allow scoring to be calculated for all preceding pages.

Blocks that Don't Work with SCORM


Poll Block
The Poll block is not supported for SCORM content—Poll blocks should be removed from module content before exporting a module to SCORM.


Instructor Notes Block
The Instructor Notes block is for instructor views only and is not shown in SCORM packages.


Graphic Organizer, Survey, and Writing Blocks

If module content has Graphic Organizer, Survey, or Writing blocks, instruct learners to print or save responses to PDF for these activities.
