I am working on an assessment that is comprised of three hot spot quiz questions. I need to set this up so that if a learner completes the first two correctly they pass and don't need to do the third. If the miss the first or second then they could try the third. If they miss the first two, then they fail. There isn't a retry on this. I'm playing with options this afternoon and wondered if there's anyone here who might know of an elegant solution for this type of "if this, then that" type of quiz.
I would be inclined to use True/False variables attached to the Correct layer of each hotspot quiz question.
For example, if the user got the first question correct, they would see the Correct layer related to that question and, when the timeline started on that layer, the variable Q1Correct would change from False to True.
Question 3 would only be shown if either Q1Correct or Q2Correct were False when they get to question 3. If both variables are False when they get to question 3, then they are automatically failed. Similarly, if either Q1Correct or Q2Correct is False and then Q3Correct is True, they pass, but if Q3Correct is False, they fail.
Hope this makes sense, but if you have any further queries, just get back to me here.
Thanks Ned - that does make sense. I've since ran into some issues with hotspot quiz questions not working to communicate a pass/fail to our LMS... so I'm now thinking about alternative ways to design these assessments.
