Draw different question banks depending on variable

Mar 30, 2015

Dears,

I am creating a course about Instructional Design for some colleagues and I would like to add a bit of background information about the working memory restriction. So I decided to build a "little" game im which they can find out, how many itmes they can keep in mind.

This is realized with a question bank where I put some slides in. A timeline makes 4 pictures show up after each other for the learner to memorize. My idea is now: When the learner manages to remember the four item, he shall get five items in the next round, six the round after and so on. This level is saved in a variable.

Is it possible to choose from different questions banks depending on the level the user has? Thus I could create one question bank for four items, one bank for five items and so on.

Thanks already for any ideas,

Cheers from Hamburg,

Nina

Hi Nina,

This sounds doable. Here's what I'm thinking:

Create your test banks
Create a question draw slide for each bank
Use a variable to track the user's "level"
Adjust the next button so that it goes to the appropriate draw slide (you'll need to use triggers with conditions - let me know if you need more detail).

I believe that should do it.

Ah! I was thinking over this and Simon answered. That's what I would do as well Simon!

Oops! You're right Rachel. I corrected it. I can almost guarantee it's because I could see your name on the screen when I was responding. :)

Good morning Dears,

Thanks for your answer Simon. That's nearly what I have done now :-) I've only used more varibales tracking not only the level but also the number of tries. Such a game soon gets out of hands!

Have a nice day you all,

Thanks again,

Nina
