Question banks
Aug 16, 2012
Hi all,
If have several question banks. Each question bank represents several questions for a category. eg. Question bank : all questions about the category Multilple Select.
Question 1:
I want to display the results of each question bank in an overall Result Slide. Is this possible?
Question 2:
Is it possible to draw questions from differten question banks?

Hi Peter,
Regarding question 2, according to Drawing from Question Banks, the answer appears to be yes.
Here's the link to the beginning of the Question Banks tutorial
And one for Results Slides
Hi Rebecca,
Thanks for your reply.
I was a bit unclear in my question number 2. What I meant is is it possible to first draw a question from Question Bank 1, Secondly draw a question from Bank 3, Thirdly form Bank 2 and so forth.
I would be interested if this is possible. Is there any update?
Helen;
I have not used this in SL but in other programs I have made individual question banks for modules to draw from and then made a "Final" combination bank of all the test banks for a final quiz to draw from.

I'd be very interested to know if Question 1 is possible through SL 'out of the box' features.
I can imagine it working if you had a variable assigned to each question bank, and that the total of that variable would increase by 1 everytime a question in that bank was answered correctly with the use of a trigger. The overall Results slide would then simply display all the variables from each question bank (in respective numeric entry fields), as well as the combined overall mark.
But like i said i wonder if SL allows this to be done automatically without having to go through a more complicated bespoke apprach that i have described above.

Hi all,
I am not sure if any of you have managed to resolve this yourselves but in case you haven't....
I have recently had a need to draw from multiple question banks (I have a question bank per learning objective and only need to ask the learner 1 question from each) and have managed to make it work by doing the following:
I hope this makes sense and helps
I'm looking at something similar I think. I am trying to make a test with 100 questions.
10 questions are pulled from 10 Question banks, which have up to 20 questions per bank.
I am looking at a results slide which has something like:
Bank 1: 3/10
Bank 2: 4/10
Bank 3: 5/10
and so on.
Would I need to make 10 results slides, and somehow link the information, or is it possible to make one with each bank score shown?
Thanks.

Hi Steve,
From my understanding, you can't use a default result slide to display the individual results from multiple question banks, but I do have a work-around that uses variables and a custom result slide that you will need to build yourself.
I have attached a demo that hopefully makes this clear enough for you to follow.
Regards,

I would set each question value to 1.
the set up a results slide for each question bank. Add a results slide of results slides, and then add in a reference to ech results.score slide on your results of reults slide
e.g.
Bank 1 %Results.score%/10
etc
fantastic thanks Anthony, Phil.
Let's see if I can get my head around it!
have a good one
Steve
Thanks guys, I tried them both and they worked well. They both taught me something new and interesting. I think the way I was considering it was similar to Phil's though Antony's is a really neat way of doing it too. Much appreciated.
Can this info be sent to an LMS or email address?
I was looking at sending variables to an LMS on another post, would this be the way to send each of the question bank results on the final results slide, or is it even possible?
thanks again, learning so much because of the help
Glad to help Steve.
Unfortunately, this is where I can no longer assist as I haven't tried to pass variables to an LMS before, but I am sure Phil will be able to offer some advice
Good luck!
Antony
This is why I would have used the results slide, you should be able to get all the data into an LMS.
I liked Anthony's solution, I have recently built two projects using my method which was why I recommended it again here.
Anthony's is perfectly serviceable, there just seems to be more than one way to skin a cat in Storyline
Thanks guys. I'm at my knowledge limit here, but really keen to develop.
So, Phil, how do I get the data into the LMS? I'm really having trouble understanding. I've created 2 story files to help me explain.
The first, test q bank variables, has a results slide with the scores for each question bank on.
When I test this in ScormCloud, I get completion, complete, success unknown, score unknown, and when I look at registration statement history it shows 100% success.
In the second story file, test q banks variables and extra results, I created a results slide which pulled the data from both banks.
This is the only change int he two files.
When I test this in ScormCloud, I get completion, complete, success passed, score 100%.
I just don't get how the data from the first version can go into the LMS. Any help really appreciated. I really need to see the different scores for different question banks.
ah I can only add one Story file per post I think, here is the first one
