Is there a method to synchronize audio with multiple choice questions (so the audio would read out each choice)? I tried lining up the audio one after another on the timeline, but the multiple choice text appears on the screen before the audio is done. Could we set the choices to a slower speed perhaps?
What about instead of trying to sync the elements together, you could place a hotspot over the question text (not the radio buttons or else the user won't be able to click on it) and then trigger the audio to play when the user hovers over those hotspots.
That's just one idea - and maybe others in the community can share additional thoughts.
I'm curious about this too. I'm working on a Spanish course and am thinking I'd set up quizzes where they have to select the correct pronunciation for a word (after hearing it).
I think that's a bit easier to do - if you have one button where they "listen" to the audio, and then can select from the different spellings to determine which one matches.
The spellings wouldn't differ though--it'd be the same word, they'd just be identifying which one is pronounced correctly. I'm thinking of doing this instead of having them record themselves. They will do that also, but only once or twice within the course, so an audio quiz gives them an opportunity to still work with correct pronunciation.

Ahh, sorry Pratima - I misread it. :-)
Maybe you could put a button next to each possible option?
