Storyline 360: Placement Test Template

Hi Jenna,
Since I don't know which responses you chose, I'm not sure if there's actually something wrong here or not. Can you do a screencast of you going through the course?

For one of my simulator technician training series (EPIC Avionics), we had to test the candidates prior to their entrance into the program. There were a series of questions covering various topics and the SMEs and I had a long conversation on tracking and passing.

What we came up with was, the techs needed to answer ALL Level 3 questions, 4/6 Level 2 questions, and 5/10 Level 3 questions. That required creating and manipulating a set of variables for L1, L2, and L3 questions each with "points" assigned (L1=1, L2=2, and L3=3). Results were calculated using a raw score as well meeting the objectives of the L1, L2, and L3 question answering requirements.

It was a lot of work, but in the end, it provided a nice assessment of the candidate's overall knowledge of the subject. In subsequent modules with this group, we then provided "test out" options where an initial assessment was provided. If the candidate scored XX% or above, they skipped the training; if they scored between XX% and XX%, they took a variable-produced option of the course, and if they failed the assessment, then the course automatically took them through then entire module.

SL360 has a LOT of power and options with the use of variables!

Ah yes, I see what you mean! Good catch. I need to update the feedback layers. I think the easiest way to adapt your course for each level would be to have 1 scene for each version of the course, which is what I have set in here in my Storyline file. That being said, if you want to avoid duplicating some of your content, you certainly could use variables to dynamically adapt some of the content.

Hi Mark,
I used the standard 16:9 dimensions.

You're welcome, Tonya!

Thanks Daniel! :)

Good idea! Let me know how it goes :)
