Only Require Some Questions on Test Retake

Hi Rene!

Matthew's response that you are referencing was a few months ago and I'm not sure if he's still subscribed to the thread. You are welcome to reach out to the user directly via the 'Contact Me' option on his user profile if you wish.

Thanks Rene :)

Hi Jeannette,  I have built a quiz similar to your above, but it looks like yours works better.  I wanted to check out under the hood, but it looks like the link is not working.  is the source file link still active?

thanks so much,
chris

Hi, Chris -- As it's possible that Jeanette may no longer be subscribed to this thread, you are welcome to reach out to her directly using the 'Contact Me' link on her profile page. Best of luck with your project! :)

And Chris, I also wanted to mention that I plan to reach out to some other members of our Community staff who may be able to provide some files to assist you further. Thanks for your patience and please stay tuned! :)

Hey Chris! Which specific source file did you want to look at? Are you using Quizmaker or Storyline?

Matthew Wolfe posted something I could use - but how do I figure out whether a question has been answered correctly in StoryLine2? I can't find any variables...

Hi, Jos -- Thanks for reaching out here! My apologies if I am not clear on your question, but could you please share your file so that we have a better idea of what you are hoping to accomplish? And in case you haven't had a chance to review this information, here is a great set of articles that covers variables, results... the works! :)

Hi Jeanette,

I notice that this conversation is over 3 years old, I am wondering if the option to only displaying only the incorrect questions on the retries feature is available in Storyline 2 (without having to use so many variables and triggers on each question).

If so, can I apply this if I am using question banks?

Hey Liz, Storyline 2 doesn't currently offer the ability to display only incorrect questions when the learner retries a quiz. And since I haven't tested that earlier workaround on a question bank, I'm not sure if that would present additional challenges or not. What you might find an easier solution is to instead set the number of retries on individual questions. That way the learner can retry each question at a time, if they answer incorrectly (rather than waiting till the entire quiz is concluded).

Hi Jeanette, how would you set up the triggers if you didn't want the incorrect/correct feedback to appear at all...?

Hi Jahn!

This thread is in the Quizmaker forum, but you mention triggers, so I assume you are utilizing Storyline.

You can set your feedback for your questions. Check out this tutorial for assistance.

Hi Jeanette, awesome explanation. I'm wondering what triggers to use if I was wanting to avoid the feedback incorrect/correct slides from appearing (so the user would just move from question to question with no feedback). The trigger on the correct slide ('set questionXcorrect = to true when timeline starts')   - where would they go instead? Thanks.

Thanks Leslie. I am referring to Jeanette's Storyline example on page 1 of this thread. I've made my query a little more specific. Hopefully she's still attached to this thread... :)

Hey Jahn, you want to to avoid feedback displaying altogether, right? You can turn that off in either the form view or question view - there is a "Feedback" option that you can set to "none."

Thanks for your reply, Jeanette. Yes, I do want to avoid feedback - but still want to retry only those questions the learner got wrong (as per your example file).

Where then would I put the trigger ('set questionXcorrect = to true when timeline starts') - as that trigger currently it sits on the 'correct' feedback slide that I would setting to none? I've had a play myself but can't quite figure it out.

I'm sorry Jahn, I don't know of a straightforward way to avoid feedback while showing only the incorrect questions on retries. The workaround I shared earlier is kind of a hack that relies on the use of feedback layers, so I'm not sure it's possible. It would be great to have this behavior built-in to Storyline... this would make a great feature request.

Thanks Jeanette.  It is an awesome hack as is, anyway. I will make a feature request. Cheers for your help.

Jeanette,
Thank you so much for posting your sample file. My boss just asked about this and whether it was something we could do.

Since I am using Articulate 360 to create an e-learning with assessment, how is the setting that users only re-do the incorrect questions when they click "retry" button on result slide? Thanks.

Hi there Nick,

Have a look at the technique that Louise shared here.  Although her sample file is for Storyline 2, you can upgrade it to Storyline 360 and use the same method.  

Hope that helps! 

Thanks so much Alyssa, it helps me a lot!

Glad to hear it, Nick!
