How did he do it? Storyline quiz graded when answer selected

Nov 27, 2012

Ok, I'm flummoxed.  I can't for the life of me figure out how he did it. 

I'm trying to figure out how the Articulate Storyline Guru Honorable Mention course below works.  Each quiz question is graded immediately when an answer choice is selected, before the the submit button is clicked.  Additionally, it seems the results slide is displayed for each question individually...playing a sound and displaying a red X and green checkmark.

Can anyone explain how the quiz questions were setup?  I'm lost...


Thanks,
Joe

Hi, Joe

Short answer: I don't know. But the fellow who created it is a member here so you'll probably get a direct answer.

Longer answer: What I suspect is that it's not really a multiple choice quiz question at all. Rather, I think it's probably made to look like that with hover states and is actually a freeform "pick one" activity (if indeed it's a scored interaction at all!), which means you can add all kinds of triggers, e.g. show layer:Correct when user clicks [correct answer] (and the inverse).

Let's see what Kevin says!

You were right.  Kevin replied to me and confirmed that it is all custom created. He didn't use any of the default quizzes or interactions from Storyline.  It's all created with different layers and triggers.  Makes much more sense now...

btw, love you name, Burgaluva.  Too bad it is too many characters or I would use that on a personalized license plate!

Thanks again,

Joe

Hi Trip and welcome to Heroes! 

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to do - you'd like to have the feedback without the user clicking on anything (i.e. the submit button)? You could set up the question to submit once the "control loses focus" as in the user clicks outside the text entry after writing an answer - that would give you the feedback right away without clicking anywhere else.
