Using a SCORM (Student)

A SCORM is a group of online activities that helps you practice reading, writing, and listening skills.

The word SCORM is used for online learning. You do not need to use this word outside of your course.

You will find SCORM activities in your course. All SCORM activities have this icon.

Many SCORM activities work in a similar way. They are easy to use and have a list of activities at the top of the page.

If you are not sure what to do, read the instructions or ask your teacher.

If an activity has more than one question, click the arrow button to move to the next question.

You will receive a score at the end of each activity. 

Important: You may lose marks for incorrect answers or for using the computer's help option.

You can review an activity or do it again. 

After you see your score, click the OK button. 

When you are ready, select the next activity from the list.

When you finish all the activities in a SCORM, you must click Exit Activity at the top of the SCORM page.

Your score will be saved in the Gradebook.

You can check your grade in the Grades tab in the course navigation menu.

The SCORM activities may include reading or listening tasks. Some activities ask you to type your answers.

Listening activities use an audio player. The audio player may include:

• a play /pause button
  
  
• the current time and the total length of the audio
  
  
• a volume/mute button, and
  
  
• a download option

Click the Play button (triangle) to start the audio.

Click the Pause button to stop the audio. The Pause button appears while the audio is playing.

The time shows how far you are through the audio. For example, 0:42 means that you are 42 seconds into a 1-minute, 12-second audio clip.

You can move to a different part of the audio by clicking and dragging along the progress bar.

• Move left to go backward.
• Move right to go forward.
  
  

This is called scrubbing.

Click the speaker icon to mute the audio.

• Move left to make the audio quieter.
• Move right to make the audio louder.
  
  

Click the three dots to see the option to download the audio clip.
