Using Checkboxes to Create Interaction in Articulate

Jul 31, 2018

Hi Everyone,

         I am new to this forum and officially stuck. I am trying to utilize checkboxes as an interaction piece in a training. What I would like to do is have students check the box next to the answer they feel is most fitting. Then they will click submit to see whether their response is correct or incorrect. Here is what I would appreciate any help with in regards to setting variables or changing states to make the interaction work the way that I hope.

1. I do not want students to have the ability to check multiple boxes because there is only one correct answer. However, I do want them to have the ability to uncheck the box and change their mind if they choose before submitting their answer.

2. Checkbox 2 is the correct answer. I want to make sure it links to the layer that is labeled, "Correct." For Checkboxes 1 and 2, I want to make sure that when they hit submit, that it leads to the "Incorrect" layer.

I have tried multiple methods, and feel that I might be making this more complicated than it actually is. I am attaching a copy of my .story file here. Thank you all in advance!

I love figuring out how Michael does stuff (especially when he does it so simply) but this one has me stumped too. For grins and giggles I added a fourth check box but can't tie it to the others so that only one can be selected, and I can't even see how Michael did the first three. Posting this to get it back to the top today to hopefully get an answer that I can add to my "tips & tricks" folder.
