Feb 28, 2012

Hello,

Is it possible to set up public content so I can receive quiz results by email?

Hey Blake,

Quizmaker is designed primarily as an elearning development tool to be used in conjunction with Articulate Online or your own Learning Management System (LMS).  You can track and report quiz and survey results via stand-alone Quizmaker quizzes or those embedded in Articulate Presenter using a number of methods. 

For the best results and most accurate reporting, we recommend Articulate Online.

You can sign up for a free 30-day trial of Articulate Online here.

Your own SCORM- or AICC-compliant Learning Management System (LMS) will also provide accurate tracking capabilities.  Here are some open-source options for tracking quiz results:

   *  Moodle:  http://www.mozealous.com/upload-and-track-a-quizmaker-09-quiz-in-moodle/

And to answer your original question, although email is not intended as a robust tracking mechanism, Quizmaker does provide an option for emailing results.  Upon completion of a quiz, the user can choose to email the results to a designated email address.  The results are sent in raw text format in the body of an email (raw text is the most flexible and universal data format).  The recipient can then copy and paste the comma-separated output from the email into a text file and open it via Excel.  After importing into Excel, you can select a "Table" format to organize the data into columns for better analysis. 

Due to web browser, Flash Player, and email security issues, this method may not always work as expected.  We suggest that you thoroughly test this method in your environment to see if it meets your needs.  For more information, please review the following article:

Thanks Justin. How about another question regarding quizmaker.

My question is: Can you set up one course and have the students take a 20 question quiz. Then continue the material and then have them take another 20 question quiz? Basically embedding two quizzes in one course rahter than taking a 40 question quiz at the end. I have studio 09. The course is published to Articulate Online. I am thinking it cannot be done.

Hi Blake,

If you're using Presenter, you could insert a Quizmaker quiz, then have some slides after that quiz and insert another quiz after those slides. You wouldn't be able to break up the questions from one quiz and show them later, but you could certainly create a second quiz and insert it later in the course. Would that work for you?
