Tracking Assessment Simulation with SCORM 1.2 on LMS

Question

Good day
I am using Captivate 3, and have managed to upload
successfully onto SumTotal LMS. However i have a requirement to not
only track on Quiz questions with SCORM 1.2 but to track an
assessment simulation - for example let the learner click on the
correct icon and type the correct text etc and then score that they
have successfully completed the simulation. I noticed in the Quiz
settings in Captivate 3 an option to "score interactions and quiz"
How does this work?? Do i always have to include a quiz with SCORM
settings before Capitvate generates the manifest file for it to
work on an LMS??
Any and all help much appreciated

In general... yes, you must set up scoring for each
interaction, turn on SCORM reporting with the "Report interactions
and the score" option and then republish the file. Captivate will
then generate the correct manifest for that file.
However, Captivate will *not* generate a multi-SCO manifest
(a manifest grouping multiple files into a single course). That
must be done in a 3rd-party tool, such as the Manifest Maker
extension for Dreamweaver.
A fairly comprehensive list of SCORM manifest-generating
tools can be found here:

SCORM-Generating Tools
In addition, there can be issues getting SCORM to work with
individual LMS products. If you search these forums, especially the
Captivate eLearning forum, you'll find a number of posts on
SumTotal. Hopefully, you can find some useful information that way.
Also, a fellow Captivate user posted a tips document to the
Captivate Developer Exchange that might make interesting reading
