Multiple question formats on one slide

Feb 22, 2024

In my project, I have one slide that needs to contain Drag & Drop components: students must move different flags to their proper locations using Hotspots. Then they must type a specific number into the red boxes labeled Distance; each box having a different value. (See image) My  flags and hot boxes are working fine. Slide layers for Correct and Incorrect work when user clicks next. I want the slide to provide feedback for the Numeric entries as well, but I can't figure out how to get the Numeric Entries to work at all.

I've included the file if anyone wants to take a shot at it and tell me what I'm doing wrong.Slide showing Flags, hotspots and Numeric Entry boxes

Numeric values will probably need an input field that uses built-in system variables (or those of your own creation). You would then likely need to have a Submit button that checks the variables for accuracy. (That's been my - very limited - experience with numeric quiz inputs.)

You could try a slightly different technique to measure your learner's comprehension here: provide a "number bank" similar to what you already have with the signs/symbols; learners would have to select and drag the number to the correct distance boxes. Perhaps you have considered this, and if so, no worries.

Good luck!
