Overview
If your course progress bar jumps straight from 0% to 100% with nothing in between, that's
expected behavior for a course made up of a single lecture — here's why.
Details
Course progress is calculated based on the number of completed lectures within a course, rather than the amount of content viewed within an individual lecture.
This calculation applies to all lecture types, including:
- SCORM packages
- Videos
- Documents
- Presentations
Each completed lecture contributes an equal percentage toward the overall course progress.
Examples
- 2 lectures: Progress changes from 0% → 50% → 100%
- 4 lectures: Progress increases in 25% increments as each lecture is completed.
- 1 lecture: Progress remains at 0% until the lecture is completed, then changes directly to 100%.
As a result, a course consisting of a single SCORM package (or any other single lecture) cannot display incremental progress. Although learners may be progressing through pages, slides, or interactions within the SCORM package, Schoox tracks completion at the lecture level, not at the individual content level.
SCORM Completion Reporting
SCORM packages report their completion status to Schoox only after they are exited correctly.
To ensure learner progress is recorded successfully, the SCORM module should always be closed using its intended exit method.
Recommendations for Granular Progress Tracking
If incremental course progress is required, divide the content into multiple lectures instead of placing all content in a single lecture.
Each completed lecture contributes independently to the overall course progress, providing learners with a more accurate and gradual representation of their progress throughout the course.
