By default, quiz slides do not have a next button so linking is done via the correct and incorrect layers as you mentioned and has to be done one the slide when linking out of a scene not in story view. If you do not have feedback enabled then you need to add a trigger after the submit interaction trigger in regards to where you'd like the slide to link to.
Every quiz question has Prev/Next by default, but they display only after the question has been answered and is being reviewed either by navigating to the question through the MENU or other means.
Sam, thanks for clarifying. I guess I have two issues:
1. When I have a question that has 2 attempts allowed and in the Try Again layer I link to a content slide for the learner to review...is there a way to automatically bring the learner back to the question for their second attempt?
2. When a learner has come to the results slide after a series of questions and has not passed, is there a way that the learner only has to revisit the questions they missed?
1 - Try this: lightbox the content slide from the Try Again layer. it might work.
2 - The only way to do this that I can think of would be to set a success variable on each quiz question, then add a trigger to skip to the next question if success was true.
I don't like the variable solution because getting a course to run right is difficult enough already.
Let's say there are 10 questions. Let's assume these questions are back-to-back and not spread throughout the course. Create 10 True/False variables: Q1, Q2, ... Q10 set to false by default.
In the "correct answer layer" of each question, setup a trigger to set QN to True, in the "incorrect answer layer" set QN to False.
In the base layer of the question, create a trigger that skips to the NEXT slide if QN is true.
I've no experience with this proposed solution. Base layer behaviors in SL content slides are not always the same in Quiz slides. You would need to test with a quick 3 question .story file.
My client wants learners to review the entire section, not just one slide...can you think of a different solution for getting to the relevant final quiz slide after the review?
You could put a conditional trigger to branch to the quiz question if a variable is TRUE at the end of the module. Set the variable to TRUE with a trigger action when the learner branches off to the module.
Aha! You helped me think about this differently. Perhaps the condition would be that at the end of the section, if the quiz slide had been visited, the last slide in the section would link to the relevant quiz slide. Does that logic make sense?

Hi Sam,

Let us know if you need anything else.
Ashley,
How does one get back to the quiz slide after branching out to the content slide(s) for review?
This thread addresses multiple issues.

Hi Susan!
You would set your results slide to allow the user to retry the quiz.
Are you working on something more out of the box? If so, if you could provide some additional details that would be helpful.
Ashley was asking how to review, not retry, the quiz.
Thanks Sam, I perhaps misunderstood when she said get back to the quiz slide after review.

Thanks, Sam.
The lightbox makes sense to me. I haven't used them yet...can I have more than one slide in a lightbox?
I'm also pretty new with variables. Can you give me an example of how I might set up the variable?
Many thanks!
A lightbox will only show a single slide.

Thanks, Sam, I will give it a try!
