Documentation Tool Query

Hey hey,

 

I have a question regarding the exporting. If a document is submitted, where do they go? Any text inputted is saved to my xAPIkachu, so where does the final submission go to be viewed by a teacher?

 

Thanks

D

Hi D,

H5P emits data in the form of xAPI statements and you will need a plugin or custom code to listen to these statements and a data store such as a learning record store to save them in. In your case it goes to the xAPIkachu plugin. I highly recommend looking through these documentation:

 

https://h5p.org/documentation/x-api

https://h5p.org/documentation/for-authors/analyzing-results-and-answers

Hi BV52,

Thanks for your reply.

 

I've had a look at the links you sent me and I'm still a little lost. (I'm not very technical). So I understand, as I've got xAPIkachu, I will have to link this to a learning record store, is that right?

Also, the documentation tool doesn't 'save' progress if the tool is only half filled out, is that normal?

 

Thanks

D

Hi DominicK!

BV may not be familiar with how H5PxAPIkatchu works as the plugin was not written by the H5P core team.

The intention of the plugin is to provide a very basic storage for xAPI statements from H5P, not a replacement for a Learning Record Store (LRS). It stores the "results" in the table that you can see and export when clicking on the H5PxAPIkatchu menu item. That is just some very basic functionality intentionally but there's no LRS required.

Currently, for WordPress users to be able to access the "results" page, they will have to have the role of an administrator. I have never looked into that subject before, but I assume it's not difficult to grant access to that page to other roles (e.g. to editors), too. However this would raise privacy issues and I would have to make sure that people can only access the "results" of content that they have created. Might be a simple extra database query, might be more complicated. I'll have to look into that when I have some more time.

If you want to relay xAPI statements to a Learning Record Store (that usually offer a bunch of tools for analysis), you should not use H5PxAPIkatchu, but WP H5P XAPI that was created for that single purpose.

Best,
Oliver

p. s.: Yes, Documentation tool doesn't save the content state yet.

Hi DominicK!

I have just released an update for H5PxAPIkatchu. It's now version 0.3.6. All users that are allowed to create H5P content can now see the xAPI results that have been stored - but only for content that they created. The complete results table is only accessible for admins and super admins.

Best,
Oliver
