Reporting on Multiple Quiz Bank Combinations based on Variables

Hi Daniel,

It's going to involve a fair amount of customization and there are a few different ways in which other users have handled it. You may want to review the information in this great thread on branching and quiz results within Storyline - and a lot of unique and cool solutions for how to set this up. 

Otherwise, you may also want to look in the Building Better Courses side of the forums as there tend to be a lot more design/how to examples there. 

Thanks for the response! That was a very in-depth thread and gave me some ideas, but I think the main difference from those scenarios and this one is that we have a need to report the user's answers to the LMS as well. 

Perhaps I can find another way around it with a different question. Currently we use the course as SCORM 2004 2nd Edition and combined with a results slide we are able to send the question text and user answer from Storyline directly into our LMS so we can report on it later. Do you know of any way to do something similar but instead of reporting a question text and user response you instead report a variable with a custom value?

Hopefully that makes sense.

Hi Daniel,

There is a method to report a custom variable, but it essentially goes through a question/results slide set up as you'll see described here. 

Anything else is a bit outside my area of expertise, so I'd have to defer to the community for more thoughts on that. 

Hey Daniel-

Had to do something not exactly like that, but it could work for you. Mind you, it's "out of the box", so I would highly suggest testing thoroughly on a small sub-set before implementing across your entire course.

In my setup, we had a questionnaire that users had to answer--two simple yes or no (radio button) questions. However, depending upon how they answered each question, they had to also enter text in a text field to give further explanation.

We wanted to keep the text fields on the same screens  as the questions and report the complete responses (yes or no PLUS the additional text) as a single response for each question, so we couldn't use the built in question templates. Instead the questions were created manually, and the user's input stored in variables.

When the user submits, the following javascript executes:

var player = GetPlayer();

var qDescription1 = "Description of Question 1";
var qDescription2 = "Description of Question 2";

var userResponse1 = player.GetVar("userResponse1"); //Yes or No
var userResponse2 = player.GetVar("userResponse2"); //Yes or No
var Q1TextEntry = player.GetVar("Q1TextEntry");     //Additional text entry
var Q2TextEntry = player.GetVar("Q2TextEntry");     //Additional text entry

if (userResponse1 == "Yes"){
 userResponse1 = userResponse1 + ". " + Q1TextEntry;
}
if (userResponse2 == "No"){
 userResponse2 = userResponse2 + ". " + Q2TextEntry;
}

var record1 = lmsAPI.RecordFillInInteraction("Question1", userResponse1, "NEUTRAL", "", qDescription1, "", "", "");
var record2 = lmsAPI.RecordFillInInteraction("Question2", userResponse2, "NEUTRAL", "", qDescription2, "", "", "");

You'd have to change RecordFillInInteraction  to whatever type of question you have set up.

This might not be ideal for your setup. Maybe a last resort if you can't get anything else to work.
