results calculating from number of questions attempted = bad
Oct 20, 2014
Hi Everybody,
I have a really interesting problem involving quiz tracking.
I have three modules that are simply assessments. The problem is that when you answer a question and get it right it sets your score as 100% (you need 80% to pass) - if you close the course at this stage it says you have completed the course.
If you answer two questions and get one wrong it gives you 50%.
I can't see a way to get it to stop doing this - calculating the % based on number of questions correct out of the number attempted. Obviously I want it to do number correct out of total number of questions.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Above is what the result slide looks like after you answer one question correctly.
...and this is the properties for the result slide.
I just mae a quick assessment/course from scratch and I am not getting this problem. The 3 courses having this problem were originally made in Storyline 1 and upgraded to Storyline 2... although surely that can't create this issue.
Hello James!
This might have something to do with how the individual results slides are set up. However, if you are not seeing this in a new file, you may want to try importing this file into a new Storyline file.
You may also want to try running a repair in Storyline.
you can also attach your file here for a closer look.
Hi Emily,
Thanks for your input. I don't think I need to do a repair however as when I make a new course it runs fine - in fact I can't for the life of me replicate the fault and there is no setting i can see that makes it calculate the percent from number of questions attempted.
I will try the import into a new storyline file, but when I have done that in the past it looses a lot of variable and player associations which is a bit frustrating.
If there is a setting that tells storyline to calculate the percent from number of questions attempted/total number of questions it would be nice to know.
Thanks
Wacky behavior James. If you don't mind submitting the offending Storyline file to support, they might be able to narrow down a cause and fix the intermittent bug (seems like an intermittent bug to me
)
Interestingly in Storyline 2 you can only import a template file. I realise I can just save my project as a template and import it but I am not going to go this route as there will be a loss of associations in doing that and given the nature of this fault it might be best to start a-fresh with a good deal of copy-pasting.
Hello James!
You can add in a .story file into Storyline 2. When you open a new project, click on the File tab, then scroll t Import, then select Storyline. You can select your file then import any or all of the slides from that file.
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the help.
I've gone an done a complete rebuild and it is working perfectly. This project was one that went off to UAT and had some pretty big changes afterwards (originally didn't track a score) as well as being upgraded to Storyline 2. In the end I think it just got a bit corrupt and a good example of the fact that when changes are big, it's better to just restart rather than frankenstien a project.
Unfortunately Steve due to privacy policy restrictions I can't upload this one.
Hello James!
Thanks for the update, and glad you got a new file to work! Corrupted files are never fun.
