DEMO: Evaluating Multiple Fill in the Blank - SL2 Source File

Hi Indrani

check the order of your triggers - you are submitting the interaction before you have changed the correct/incorrect buttons to selected so SL doesn't think you've answered the question yet.  Move the Submit interaction trigger to the bottom after the two change state triggers.

Another tip - once you set the trigger for the correct button with all the conditions, you can set the trigger for the incorrect button:

Change state of incorrect button to selected when user clicks submit button on condition 'correct button' is not selected...makes it quicker if you  have lots of TE fields.

Thanks so much, Wendy. You are the best :)

One question for you. You gave me a great tip ! But how do I do the following?

"Change state of incorrect button to selected when user clicks submit button on condition 'correct button' is not selected" ?

Thanks so much

Trying this out.  let me see if it works. Thank you again

That’s it Indrani - just means you don’t have to create all the conditions for the incorrect button. Let me know how you go😀

Thanks, Wendy. Such a great tip.  Hmm..I think I am doing it right, but still getting it wrong.  Must be something small.

I’ll be home in half an hour and I’ll check it for you 

So kind of you.  No rush..really.  It is your weekend :) THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND THANK YOU

Hi Indrani 

you need to be careful of the naming of variables and which one you use in the triggers (it can get a little tricky).  So while you changed the name of the variables in the timeline, you were actually referencing the wrong ones.

This was your trigger condition:

These are my trigger conditions  to match your triggers 

and it works as expected. You'll notice down the left hand side I have added the variable references on screen so I can make sure they are being validated by SL when control loses focus.

I've attached your updated file...all the best.

What can I say?  Thank you again.  I truly appreciate your dedication. I promise to be mindful. Thank you.

Glad to help Indrani - good luck with your project...just send me one of those cocktails and we'll be square :-)

Absolutely, Wendy. That is a promise. Next time you are in our area, it is my treat 😊

Thank you,

Wendy,

I have another question, and I guess this is a 'variable' question.  I created a new slide using the same variables, but I am getting 'Incorrect response' even when I select the correct choice.  Do you think I need to change the 'input textbox' names.  Logically this should work as these are the same field names.  Here is the project.  In slide # 2, it does not work.  Do I need to change any variable name? Thanks

Wendy,  another question for you.  

. Is there a way that just the incorrect entries could be flagged?   Thanks

Hi Indrani

the variables are set once so if you are using the same variables on the next slide you will need to reset them when the timeline starts or use new variable names.

Adjust variable textentryx assignment value = and leave the value field blank.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.  Flagged to the user when they click submit, or flagged (reported) when they are submitted to the LMS? I'm not sure how you are scoring and reporting.

Thank you, Wendy.   So in this case, I will reset values-textentry1-4 in the next screen.  Thanks,

I am leaning towards creating new variables :) Thanks again

Flagged to the user when they submit on a page.   For example, if they get the fourth blank 'wrong' , they will get a visual cuing or a message.  On each card there are four answers. If you get three correct and one wrong, you just received the “incorrect” response. Instead, Is there a way that just the incorrect entries could be flagged?  Thanks

Would something like this work?

Wendy, you are the best.  What can I say?  This is brilliant :)  Thank you so much. However, I do have a question abut this instance,

Sometimes, on the second attempt, when the user gets it 'correct', the 'cross' icon stays on.  Wonder if it will be confusing to users. Also, if in the 'incorrect' response, if we can get a message which gives user the option to retry or just go to the next exercise?  can tis be done.

Loved your analysis.  You are the best :)

Hi Indrani

there was only one attempt on the quiz slide so I assumed they weren't getting a second attempt

so in your images above you have now added a Try again button - if you change the attempts to more than one you will get a Try again layer where the user can have as many attempts as you want..  What do you want to happen when the user clicks this?

-The 'Try Again' could give user to try again, And the 'Continue' option to skip trying and proceed

Hi Wendy,

I have been working on this project and added few more slides.  Slides 1& 2 work perfectly.

However, I noticed that  slides 3 and 4, things do not work.  To be specific, I keep getting 'x' marks for right answers. I have checked my code again and again but everything looks good.  Also I always get everything right for slides 3 and  4 in preview mode.  however in 'publish' mode, things do not work.  I have no idea what I am doing wrong.  Please could you take a look?

Many thanks,

Indrani

Thank you, Wendy.

Glad this conversation was able to help you as well, Jack. Thanks for chiming in to share.
