Hi Alicia,

When flash requests the progress information it makes a call to the backend which looks something like:

http://localhost:8080/lams/monitoring/monitoring.do?method=getAllLearnersProgress&lessonID=34

This returns a wddx packet (in the form of xml) that contains the progress information for all the learners that have started the lesson. I've attached a sample wddx packet to this thread (all_learners_progress.xml) so that you can see the structure of the response.

The two methods that will most likely be of interest are:

public String getAllLearnersProgress(Long lessonID, Integer userID)
public LearnerProgress getLearnerProgress(Integer learnerId, Long lessonId)

These are defined in MonitoringService.java under the lams_montoring project. The first one gets the progress for all started learners and second for an individual learner.

The LearnerProgress class is defined under the lams_common project.

Hope this helps!

Daniel
