Reset quiz questions

Thanks Dipti. I don't think I explained it properly.

The problem I have is that I want users to be able to retake a quiz. So I've created a "retake quiz" button that links to the start of my quiz.

I've also set the question slide properties to "Reset to initial state" - otherwise when you revisit them, the previous answers are displayed.

This all works fine on a desktop but not on HTML5 output on iPads. On iPad the quiz scores aren't reported back to the LMS, plus the results slide says I scored "0", even if I get all the questions correct.

HI

Check the following output on iPad.

Thanks again Dipti. That does let me retake the questions - I'm not sure if it still records the score in our LMS though. Would you mind sharing the Storyline file?

Hi Stephen

Have you tried it with the in-built 'Retry Quiz' functionality built into a Results Slide, rather than building your own? Sometimes the default settings seem to have a better success rate.

Agreed Helen! Here is a document that may help Steven. I also want to make sure that you are using Storyline Update 3 because it seems some of what you mentioned were problematic prior to Update 3, just thought I should ask.

Hi Steven

The .story file is attached.

Thanks Dipti

Hi folks, thanks for all the replies and thanks for the source file Dipti.

I've checked and I'm using Storyline V3.

When I publish the source file Dipti provided, it works as expected on PC but HTML5 output on iPad isn't working. I can retake the quiz but it's impossible to pass the quiz.

If I answer one of the two questions correctly the results slide shows 0%. If i answer both questions correctly it says 50%.

Hi Steven! 

Note these important facts about mobile output:

• Tracking in the Articulate Mobile Player is only supported in learning management systems that support the Tin Can API  specification.
• If your LMS doesn't yet support Tin Can API and you need to track learners’ results, don't include the Articulate Mobile Player option when publishing (see the next section for details). Learners will need to view your course in a browser that supports Flash or HTML5, so it can communicate results to your LMS.
• If your LMS doesn’t support Tin Can API but you don’t need tracking, you might still be able to deploy your content via your LMS for viewing in the Articulate Mobile Player. However, not all LMSs allow content to be viewed on a mobile app, so you’ll need to test this with your own LMS to confirm.

Hi folks

Thanks again for the responses. The solution was to use 'automatically decide' on the question slides, then turn on the 'Retry Quiz' option on the results slide.

An alternative is to create your own retry quiz button and add the 'Reset results' trigger to it - along with a trigger that takes users to question 1 - which does the same thing.

Thanks for the update Steven! 

Just a little tip (WARNING) , do NOT add a Reset results trigger "when timeline starts". It will work fine on a PC (desktop) but will cause a laptop to display a blank screen when the user gets to that slide.  I was told by support that the Reset results trigger is ONLY for use on Retry Quiz button. I quote: "Using the trigger outside of the intended function may cause issues."

Hi, Tom -- We appreciate the update, and as this thread is a bit dated, if you were hoping to reach any of the participants directly, you may use the 'Contact Me' link on their profile page (as they may no longer be subscribed). 

Dipti's scheme works fine for a question by question basis. 

I'd like the learner to answer a series of questions first - then, if they do not pass, they can go back to the start of the series of questions to take the entire quiz again. It seems that the questions do not reset in this scenario.  I am using Storyline 3 with update3.

Hello Manjeet!

Great question :) Be sure that you are enabling the Retry button on the Quiz Result Slide.

Watch this video tutorial to learn how to add quiz results slides in Storyline 360 and Storyline 3. Use result slides to give learners feedback and track scores in your LMS.

I am having a similar problem. Originally, the quiz would not let select new answers. I have been playing around with it and still no luck. Can anyone help? I just want users to be able to restart the quiz.

Hi Rachel,

Thanks for sharing your file! I tested it in Storyline 360, and the "Retry" button on the results slide seems to be working correctly. When I clicked that button, it took me back to the first quiz slide, and I was able to select new answers.

Are you also using Storyline 360? If so, are you using the most recent update? You can check by going to Help >> About Storyline.

I Have the same question and it is not working in SL2. Please help.

Hi Chandan,

You came to the right place! Let's keep our conversation going in your other discussion here. 🙂

i am unable to reset the quiz answer when the user is revisiting the quiz

Hi Chandan

Do you have a reset results trigger on the retry button and is it above the jump to side trigger 

Thanks a lot Wendy. Your hint was so useful and solved my problem.

Glad that this conversation was able to help you out as well, Bizhan.

Thanks for chiming in to share and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
