Has anyone ever developed a crossword quiz and managed to make it look good? I have attempted one using drag and drop but my testers don't seem to like it. They would rather type the answers in. Is there a way to do this? I am sure it will be tricky?
Oh my goodness Caroline - not only is that a speedy reply but your link is absolutely amazing. Would you mind sharing with me how you did that? It's great! It's not quite what I was thinking of but I can adapt to do something like this if I could have some tips? Thank you so very much, I am new to this and learning. Ruth
I'm now changing the direction of the thread slightly. I have used elcipse to develop a simple crossword which I was very happy with. My LMS is open source software Moodle so I publish to SCORM 1.2 for playing my articulate course on that site. When I do this the crossword does not work. I have seen a couple of help pointers on the articulate site that explain why:
Web objects with jQuery (JavaScript) don't work in Internet Explorer
Web object doesn't display when published
So, I am assuming that this means that I can't use elcipse in SCORM. Does anyone know then, any other crossword generators that I can use as a web object that will translate to SCORM and play on moodle?
I wanted to see if i could create a crossword in Storyline in which the users enter their answers letter by letter directly into the crossword grid. I created the following childrens game which I entered into David Anderson's weekly challenge. I thought you guys on this thread might have a special interest, so posted it here too.
Since it's been over 5 years, almost none of the links work anymore... I created a crossword puzzle in Storyline. The only feedback I could create in "Incorrect" layer is that one of the answers in the puzzle is incorrect. Is there a way to automatically show which particular answer is wrong?
I tried to mimic a puzzle I downloaded from one of the challanges but I can't get it to display the answer, can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Challenge.story is not my work that is what I am trying to accomplish not exactly the same but simialr. CWPuzzle. story is the file I can't get to display the answer for 3 Across. I appreciate and welcome input from everyone.

Hi Ruth!
I've made something, don't really know if that's what you're looking for, just tell me

Have a nice day,

EDIT
To add a bit more to my message, here you can find a Screenr about creating a crossword with Quizzmaker.
I also know that you can use software like Eclipse Crossword, create your crossword and then embed it in Storyline ou Studio as a web object.

I edited my message about other ways to get a crossword puzzle, because I think that you meant finding the words thanks to definition, am I right?
Here's a second Screenr about Eclipse Crossword.
If you have any question about my file, please don't hesitate.
Gosh, thanks you so much. I will take a look at the Eclipse crossword and see how I get on. Am hoping that I can embed this within Storyline......
Many many thanks, Ruth
@Caroline
Thanks for sharing. Since I do not speak French, I clicked all the letters at random until some clicked letters eventually linked up to form a word.
Only improvement I would suggest as a result of this is that a running score rewards only clicking correct letters, whilst penalising wrong choices.

Thanks for link to HotPotato.
Thanks for all your comments. Really helpful.

As always thanks in advance, Ruth
Thank you so much Nick. I will see if Hot Potato works in a SCORM on a Moodle platform. I will report back......
I should have subscribed to the thread. I haven't noticed the discussion went on
@Alphonso
That's really good idea, however I don't really know how to do that.
@Nick

Hello Malgorzata and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
I was able to view most of the links and the file above, so I wanted to reshare them here for you.
