Completion status of SCORM materials in edyoucated

Learn how the statuses of SCORM materials map to the edyoucated material completion attribute.

Learners can finish a SCORM file but fail its mastery test. The SCORM 2004 documentation models those as two separate statuses. This article indicates how the different combinations of both statutes map to the "material completed" attribute in edyoucated.

Note: Some SCORM authoring tools never set success_status (they leave it unknown).
