Text entry variables in an assessment

Jan 08, 2019

Is it possible to have a text entry variable in an assessment?  My experience says yes, but there is no text box on the slide?  I've used this frequently in try its, but find it does not work in assessments.  Is this by design or does anyone know how to do this and make it work?

Not sure how you are planning on using the variable but you can use the fill-in-the-blank graded quiz option to capture a variable that you can then display elsewhere.

To do this, click on the Text Entry trigger, click + and then add the variable name you want to use.

You can also add your text entry variables to a slide and then use the convert to freeform option to turn it into a quiz slide.
