We are often asked this question when we teach the quizzing portion of Storyline 360. Selecting the answer and then asking the user to hit submit feels awkward for some designers. In this quick blog entry, we are going to show you a simple way that you submit an answer by simply clicking the choice. Disclaimer: (usually read fast at the end of a commercial – don’t worry – no harmful side effects like constipation or rashes) Before we show you how we probably need to tell you why this
Can I Create a Pre-Test that Allows Learners to Test-Out of Viewing the Course Content?
On Day 2 of Articulate training, we tackle quizzing. The exercises highlight features in Storyline that support the creation of robust assessment activities where the learning doesn’t stop when the quiz starts. One question that is often raised that morning is whether Storyline supports pre-tests. Pre-tests could be used to: Introduce a course or topic and whet the appetite of the learner. Give experienced learners an opportunity to prove that they have already achieved mastery, and therefore do not need additional training. Tailor course content to the specific needs of
How Do I Change the Way the Correct/Incorrect Feedback Looks When I Build a Quiz Question?
I love teaching Storyline to folks, and I love teaching every session. However, if I had to pick a session that would be my favorite to teach, it would be when we focus on quiz questions. In Storyline, they’re so easy to build! (Although, remember to take the time to craft well-written questions in the first place!) The standard, “out of the box” quiz options are amazing! You get great states (how the objects look) and layers (for question feedback). But it’s inevitable…a question we get asked in almost every
How Can I Time an Individual Quiz Question?
Teaching assessments during our hands-on Articulate training is one of my favorite portions because I often learn just as much from our students as they learn from me. It never fails that we have great discussions about methods people use for creating quiz questions, and sharing those methods only helps us grow as e-Learning developers. Recently, a student who also happened to be a firefighter asked, “I know we can time a quiz as a whole, but is there any way I can time quiz questions individually?” He went on
Can I Require Learners to Provide an Explanation after a Specific Response?
When building survey questions in Storyline 2, the Likert question type is a popular option for gathering feedback from learners. After covering this question type in Storyline training, we can almost guarantee we’ll be asked this follow-up question: “Can I require learners to explain why they gave a low value on a Likert scale question?” Or, perhaps you want to gather those glowing review comments for a high rating. Or, find out why someone responded with a “No.” Due to the limitations of the form-based Likert scale question, we can’t
