Open Book Test - Scrollable PDF split screen with Test Questions?

Jan 03, 2020

I have to make an exam that tests a students ability to find information in a manual. Therefore, the exam has to be open book(PDF).

Is there a way of making a scrollable pdf in one half of the storyline window and the test questions in a second half of the window? I envision splitting the window vertically.

I am trying to eliminate the need to have students download the PDF then have a second window open outside of the LMS. 

 

Thank you for any input or advice.

Cheers,

Hi Jason,

Thanks for reaching out and sharing what you'd like to do! I imagine having split screens could potentially make the screen very busy or make you squeeze a lot of information together. 

Have you considered saving the .pdf as a .png image, and then inserting in a scrolling panel on a slide layer that the learner can show/hide then return to the question? Hopefully others in the community can chime in with their alternatives to opening a new window.
