Case study quiz creation
Jul 27, 2012

I have created a bank of questions that all relate to a case study. I want there to be an option to read the case study at any point throughout the quiz to refresh the memory of the details as they address each question. Because I have drawn from a question bank and put the 70 question quiz in one slide, there doesn't seem to be an option to add a trigger to a lightbox slide like I have done with shorter quizzes where I made a different slide for each question and was able to make a button to refer back to the case study.
Am I missing something, or does storyline not allow me to do this when I draw questions from a question bank?
Thanks for any help,
John

John,
I'd have to play with it, but my first thought is...could you put a link in the upper left or right of the player? In other words, where it says resources, create a "case study" player tab? It does make it a persistent element, but if your original method doesn't work out, this could be one solution.

John,
In doing a quick test, it looks like you may need to add that button/trigger on each slide in your question bank before they get pulled in.

Bingo! I didn't notice the option to add triggers to the questions in the question bank window. I had to manually place a button in each question and add a trigger to a lightbox slide with the case study text on it. I pulled the questions into the project afterwards. Slightly tedious, but I'm relieved that it functions exactly as I had hoped.
Perhaps in the future there could be an option in the question bank window to add this sort of scenario/case study slide to multiple questions at once? It could be a major time-saver for those who are creating very large exams.
Thanks for the help, sir!

Hi!
