Checking questions answered in assessment

We have assessments where the learner answers questions on each page and then submits at the end. There is unusually a button allowing them to review and check their answers before submitting. Wondering if there is a way to have a trigger on each page tied to the NEXT button. A variable that checks the question to see if it's been answered, not correct or incorrect, but answered.  Pop-up that tells learner if they have not answered a question. We don't want to submit the answers individually, just a gentle "Hey, you didn't answer this one" message. 

I know that functionality exists when the learner Submits the answer on each page. 

Thanks!

That functionality isn't built-in. You'd have to add your own trigger to each NEXT button. 

  • Add a trigger that shows the message with the conditions checking that all of the response buttons ≠ Selected.
    • Do not use "= Normal." Every state is based on Normal, so that condition doesn't work well. 
    • Be sure the conditions are connected with "and" (not "or"), so that all of the conditions must be met to show the message.
  • If you put the "Hey, you didn't answer this one" message in a separate slide (for example, in an extra scene), you could lightbox that slide when the user clicks NEXT before answering. That would allow you to keep the message in just one place, instead of repeating it on each question slide.

Here's an example of what that would look like for a question with 2 possible responses:
