loud account to save your lesson in the Cloud (see the section
SoftChalk Cloud). Then you will paste a link to this lesson in Moodle. You can update your content in SoftChalk Cloud and all your link(s) will reflect your change. You can link to the same lesson in multiple sections or courses.
Before pasting a link to your lesson into Moodle, you will want to decide if you want to collect scores from your students or if you want your lessons to be "practice" lessons and you don't need to collect scores. For each lesson you can decide whether or not to collect scores. Many instructors use both "scored" and "practice" lessons within a course. For details on:
- Scored lessons, see the section Scored Lessons (Cloud Users). (While your preferred method would probably be to collect student scores in the Moodle gradebook, you can also collect emails from students and have students print certificates. See the section Print or Email Scores.)
- Non scored lessons, see the section Non Scored Lessons (Cloud Users).

ScoreCenter OverviewWhen you view your SoftChalk lesson scores within the Moodle gradebook, you are using a SoftChalk feature called the ScoreCenter. In other words, you click on the name for your lesson in the assignments area of Moodle and you see the SoftChalk ScoreCenter interface but all the scores are also "plugged into" the Moodle gradebook. In Moodle, students will also see their grades from SoftChalk lessons as well.
IMPORTANT: To use the ScoreCenter feature, your Moodle administrator needs to configure your system to use this feature. See the section Moodle Administrator.
With the ScoreCenter feature, you can:
- Determine which score is the grade for the student (i.e. first, highest, last or average score). (Attempts for all scores are viewable.)
- Determine how many times a student can go into a lesson (unlimited times or a specific number of times).
- Get detailed scoring information for individual students (i.e. what a student did on an activity and or quiz items).
- Change scores.
- Update your lesson in one place (SoftChalk Cloud) and link to it in multiple sections or courses.
...
...
Basic ProceduresIMPORTANT: Within your lesson in SoftChalk Create, be sure to assign points to each QuizPopper and Activity. (In the main editing window of your SoftChalk lesson, right-click on the QuizPopper or Activity and choose Modify QuizPopper or Modify Activity. Go to the Options tab and use the Points dropdown menu to assign points.)
To have your student scores appear within the Moodle gradebook area (i.e. ScoreCenter interface), you need to:
- Save your lesson into your SoftChalk Cloud account (see the section Save a Lesson to the Cloud in the SoftChalk Cloud Guide).
- Copy the LTI Link for this lesson (see the section Copy the LTI Link for Your Lesson in the SoftChalk Cloud Guide). IMPORTANT: Be sure to copy the LTI Link and NOT the Hyperlink for the lesson.
- Paste this LTI Link into the Lessons area in Moodle (see the section Paste the LTI Link into Moodle).
- Set the Grading Method and Maximum Attempts for each lesson (see the section Set the Grading Method and Maximum Attempts).
- View or change your students' scores (see the section View or Change Scores).
- If you plan to collect and/or score essays, see the section Essays.

You may find that your students have neglected to complete their attempts (i.e. they have neglected to click Finish on the last page of the lesson – clicking Finish sends a completion status to the gradebook).
IMPORTANT: You may want to do this procedure after the availability of your lesson has expired. After you do this procedure, future attempts can be incomplete.
IMPORTANT: This procedure cannot be undone. (You can change individual scores or re-open individual attempts if you need to.)

EssaysIf you use essays in your lesson, you can view the essays within the ScoreCenter area (see the previous section View or Change Scores). Please note the following important information.
...
You can modify the grade for the lesson based on the points you decide to give to the essay. For example, you may have a lesson worth 100 points including one essay worth 10 points. (You assigned the points under the Options tab for the essay and other items.) Let's say a student completes everything correctly, completes the essay, clicks the Finish button for the essay and then clicks the Finish button on the last page of the lesson to submit his or her score. At this stage, the student has a score of 90 out of 100 because you will need to evaluate the essay and assign points. You can go into the gradebook (i.e. ScoreCenter) and evaluate the essay and modify the score. You may want to provide feedback to the student on the essay by clicking the Feedback button within the attempt.
(You may want to explain the above process to your students; as mentioned, you also have the option to assign 0 points to an essay if you like.)
...
...
View Grades from LTI Lessons in the Moodle Grader ReportIf you go to the Gradebook area in Moodle, you can see that the scores from your lessons (using the LTI Link and external tool – see the previous sections Paste the LTI Link into Moodle and Set the Grading Method and Maximum Attempts) appear in your Moodle Gradebook.

Edit a SoftChalk Cloud LessonIf you used the LTI Link or Hyperlink to your SoftChalk Cloud lesson, then you can easily edit your lesson within your SoftChalk Cloud account. (You don't have to paste in a new LTI Link or Hyperlink; simply edit your current lesson in SoftChalk Cloud and the LTI Link or Hyperlink for this lesson will still work.)
IMPORTANT: If you edit a lesson that has scored items and you have pasted an LTI Link for this lesson into Moodle, we recommend the scoring for your lesson remain the same if students have started taking this lesson.

- Click My Content/Lessons.
- Open the folder that contains your lesson. Click on the name of your lesson.

Collaborate with Other Instructors on SoftChalk LessonsYou can collaborate with other instructors to create your SoftChalk lessons using a SoftChalk Cloud account (or a trial SoftChalk Cloud account). Within SoftChalk Create, you can publish your lesson to your SoftChalk Cloud account. Another instructor [also using SoftChalk Create and a SoftChalk Cloud account (or a trial SoftChalk Cloud account)] can access and edit the lesson you published.
IMPORTANT: Simultaneous work in the same lesson is not supported. In other words, one person should be working on the lesson at a time. (If two or more people are making changes to the same lesson at the same time and saving the lesson to the Cloud, they may end up overwriting each other's changes.)
For more details, see the section Collaborate with Other Instructors on SoftChalk Lessons in the SoftChalk Cloud

Print or Email ScoresYour students can print certificates of their scores and/or your students can email you within the lesson to send their scores. The basic steps are:
...
With the email option, you will get an email from each student for each attempt the student made for the lesson. (As mentioned previously, we recommend the use of the ScoreCenter feature with SoftChalk Cloud as you won't have to manage individual emails. With the ScoreCenter feature, students can click the Finish button on the last page of an LTI linked lesson and have the option to print or email the score to themselves.)
If you are uploading a zip file to Moodle, then see the next sections In SoftChalk: Package a Zip Lesson and In Moodle: Upload a Zip File.
...
...
In SoftChalk: Package a Lesson for SCORM 1.2- Within your lesson in SoftChalk Create (or SoftChalk 7 desktop version), choose File/Package Lesson. Under Package type, choose Standard Zip. Under Track score using, choose LMS with SCORM 1.2 (see below).
Within your lesson in SoftChalk 6 or lower, choose File/Package Lesson/SCORM 1.2 Format. (If this option is disabled, then save your lesson or open a lesson.)
- If you are using SoftChalk Create, select the area where you want the zip file saved such as your Desktop. Then click OK. By default, you would save to your Documents area. With earlier versions of SoftChalk, the _sco.zip file is saved within the lesson folder.
- Your packaged file has your lesson name with a _sco.zip extension (see below). If your file extensions are not showing, you will not see the .zip at the end of the filename. Look for a folder with a zipper or package icon with your lesson name.
...
...
In Moodle: Upload the SCORM Zip File- Log into your Moodle account.
- Choose your course (see below).
...
- Change the Grading method to Highest grade (If you happened to select Learning Objects, the score will NOT record.) Change the Maximum grade to 100 (or another point value depending on the number of points you designated in your lesson). IMPORTANT: Even though the Grade method is set to Highest grade, the score updates each time in the grader report. In other words, the score displays the LAST score for the student (see below).
IMPORTANT: When you upload packaged SoftChalk lessons into Moodle, the Number of Attempts and Attempts grading options don't have any effect (see below).
...
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Save and return to Course. (You could also click Save and display.)
