Question retry suppress

Nov 16, 2012

I imported a Quizmaker quiz into Storyline.  Every question asks the student to retry the question if answered incorrectly.

I've never set this option and darn if I can find how to reset it in Storyline.

Help!

Hi Sam!

You might want to check the attempts set for the questions. Check out this tutorial. Scroll down to the section titled "Editing Questions". Make sure that the attempts are not set to "Unlimited". If it is, they'll keep getting that prompt to retry the question. 

Let me know if this helps.

Have a great Friday!

Hi Sam

Is this the method you're using?

Assigning result slides and adjusting slide properties

When you import a Quizmaker quiz into Storyline, the result slide from the quiz will automatically be imported as well, and each of your imported questions will be associated with that result slide in Storyline.  

  • Tip:   After importing a Quizmaker quiz into Storyline, you'll need to edit the imported result slide to ensure that it includes all the options you want.  The pass and fail result slides from Quizmaker get consolidated into a single result slide in Storyline, so some settings will not be selected in Storyline regardless of what is selected in Quizmaker, such as the options to display the user's score and the passing score .

Note that Storyline also supports multiple result slides in the same story, so you can change the result slide that is associated with each question at any time.

You can assign individual questions to a particular result slide when you're in Normal View by using the Results Slidedrop-down list in the Question panel on the right side of the screen.  You can assign each question to any of your existing result slides, or select None if you do not want this question to be included in any result slides.

For more information on creating and editing result slides, see this tutorial.

You can also assign multiple question slides to the same result slide all at once by switching to Story View, selecting the question slides you want to modify, and then using the Slide panel in the lower right corner of the window to adjust the properties for all the selected slides at the same time.

Christine,

Your assistance has been a help building a results slide that I think will work well.

As for the question not proceeding to the result slide after clicking "continue" on incorrect feedback.  It seems that was because I was drawing only one question randomly from the question group.  The triggers, which were set to "next slide" would only transition to the result slide if it was the last question in the group.

The solution was to edit the "incorrect answer" layer trigger on each question in the group to transition to the result slide.

This begs another question...  What if I wanted to draw two questions randomly from a group.  What should the continue trigger bet set to?  

My head hurts...

Christine,

I have a few variances in Storyline that you may be able to explain.

I don't see these properties.  Is this because I imported from Quizmaker?  The snapshot that follows shows one question bank.  The Slide properties field is blank.
