Branching from page and return... Storyline
Oct 08, 2012
Hi. I have a scenario where we want to introduce the question (in this case a Physics problem), then allow the student to make a stab at the answer. If they don't know how to work the problem, I would like to provide a button on the question slide that says something like "I'm stuck - please help me". If they click the button - I want it to take them to a new slide that explains how to work the problem - in steps - so maybe a, b, c, d buttons on that slide that take the problem from different points in the "work flow". At any point on this secondary slide, I want them to be able to return to the question slide they came from and answer the question. When I preview my question, the button action doesn't work - is it because it is waiting for me to click the submit button? If yes, how would you get around this and/or does anyone have any suggestions for how this might be set up.

Donna,
Since each quiz question is just another slide, try adding a layer containing the explanation to each question slide.
Here is an example Story.

Thanks. That does the trick. Maybe I should get all the way through the tutorials before I ask questions....
I appreciate you helping me jump to the answer. (I needed an "I'm stuck" button in the articulate framework)
Alternatively...a Lightbox might provide a differing visual cue for "Help", they look lovely, and that way you could make the "Answers" easily look different to the "Questions".
It's exactly the same, it's just a slide, but trigger it using the "Go to Lighbox Slide" rather than "Go to Slide".
Hope that's useful.

Thanks for that answer, too. I can see where this would be a good resource too, especially if you want something to persist across multiple slides. Great help.
