Report of selected images and text fields
I would like to give users a selection of images or texts. They should then use interaction: drag & drop or multiple choice etc. to choose what they like best. I would then like to evaluate the answers.
Ideally, I would like to have the answers as images and words in an Excel sheet.
The Scorm package will be integrated into TalentLMS.
I know that it is possible to enter data directly into a Google Sheet. However, then only the text fields are there. It is also possible to make a quiz out of it in order to read out the individual selected fields using the TalentLMS user report. However, TalentLMS does not offer an automatic report for this and it is time-consuming to read it out individually for each user. In addition, it is not the images that are displayed, but the object names.
I already have a solution in mind, but I don't think it's optimal yet. Hence my question to the group:
In summary, the following should ideally be possible:
User joins e_learning course,
User selects his images and texts
User completes course
Excel with images and texts is sent to mail address xy.
Does anyone have an idea? Thanks in advance!
Sounds like something best done on the server side. If you had access to a server backend, you could transfer data from SL to the server through an embedded web object. The server could then process the transfered data (text, images, or whatever) into a document (maybe using something like PHPspeadsheet to export an Excel file). The server could then email the results to you. This could be done on a per user basis and sent immeadiatey, or you could incorporate a database to store the user data and then use a server script to send you batches of excel data on demand.
It would take some work but is probably doable, and would provide the most automated and user-friendly data output.
Nathan is correct that custom reports are possible, when data is sent to custom code running server side. I created many custom reporting server side solutions that went beyond standard LMS and LRS reports. Speaking of LRS systems, have you looked into these - Learning Record Stores? Several on the market have some very nice reporting tools
Thank you for your answer. As you seem to be experienced with reports like this: Do you know which one would be a good choice?
