Building an accounting activity in Storyline 360.
Mar 29, 2017
Hello,
I'm hoping someone can lead me to some resources on this...
I have an activity that I am converting from Lectora to Storyline 360. There are a series of accounts that the learner must enter a debit or a credit entry for. After they've entered either the credit or the debit, they select "total" which then calculates each of the columns (debit and credit) which then need to trigger a correct or incorrect response. I do not see how it can be done using a convert to free form.
Too, the way this was set up in Lectora is for the learner to click on an account (example: cash account) and another layer to appear with more information on the account such as a series of debits and credits to the account that need to be manually calculated to determine if the account has a credit or debit balance.
I mention the second part, because I'm sure calculating the numerical entries could be affected if I'm working on multiple layers.
Any advice would be much appreciated. I'm attaching a screen shot of the activity. In this screenshot, I clicked on "Cash Account" to get the content that appears on the right.

See attached a rough example that hopefully shows how this may work. I use offstage radio buttons that are set depending on the total values. These radio buttons are part of a Freeform Pick-one question. For this quick example I did the first two columns, the correct debit total is 10000 and the correct credit total is 5000. Hope that gets you started.
I programmed the entire worksheet using your method and it works! Thank you so much!
Great to hear that you got the interaction completed. Good luck with your project!
