I've got one text box which I want to have just key words in order for it to become complete? I've been trying my best to do that but it's not working. Can you help?
You'd need to add individual text entry boxes so SL can evaluate the entries unless you mean the text box can have 'this word' or 'that word' or 'another word' and any of those would be correct?
looking at your slide you have a lot of words to be evaluated in the value field
grind the iron when required on a grinding wheel. hone the iron on the fine side of a lubricated sharpening stone. remove the burr formed during the honing process
you'd need to reduce this down if you want SL to check for keywords eg. 'grind' or 'hone' etc.
Yes exactly what you said. Say for example they need to get at least 5 out of 10 of the key words in the data entry in order for it to become correct. Is that possible in SL?
You'd need to have ten text entry fields to be evaluated not just the one that your have. Instead of text entry fields you could use a pick one slide and have the keywords listed and the user clicks the 5 - 10 correct ones.
I'll have to liaise with the subject expert to see if I can change it to that particular question type. Thank you for your help today. It's been immensely helpful.
No worries just giving you an alternative, otherwise you'll need to create the 10 text entry boxes or you could create only 5 and allow two possible keywords per field - that might work for you.

Hi Wendy,
Okay. Am I able to have keywords even if the learner doesn't type all the key words in and still be correct?
Hi Becky
not sure I understand what you mean.
Are you saying there is a list of keywords e.g. 4 words they can enter - how many of those do they need to enter to get a correct response?
