Sending data entry text to teacher or LMS

Oct 30, 2012

Sorry if this question has been asked before.

I have set up a learning module that is a pre-requisite for a face to face workshop and have included 2 or 3 interactive activities using the insert data entry field. Two of the activities the user types in their response and then is able to compare with the 'expert' response.  However I have also included an activity where the user types in their suggestion (using the data entry field) on how to handle a scenario situation.  Can I set up a variable that then sends this suggestion to an email (eg the teachers email) or the LMS. The teacher will then have a list of suggestions to cover in the face to face workshop.

OR would it be better to set this up as a quiz, using the short answer feature...but is the short answer recorded anywhere (LMS) for the teacher to access after submission.  I have only used the true/false, multiple choice, multiple answer in quizmaker/storyline.

thanks Kate

Hi!

The sending by e-mail is no longer supported, as differences in browsers and security makes that difficult.

The LMS is usually a good option using a quiz question.  The bigger question is does the LMS let you view that data easily, either through the LMS itself or via a report.  depending on the LMS, it might and it might not.
