I'm new to eLearning and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I have developed an assessment that I'm using a question bank. The question bank has 79 questions that are random. The end user receives 25 questions out of the bank but must answer 20 correctly to pass.
I would like the result slide to populate when the end user misses the 5th question.
I'm sure this is a variable situation but could be wrong. Thank you in advance.
Yes, you'll want to add a variable that counts (or has 1 added to it) each time the learner gets a question wrong. So create a trigger for that and add it to each incorrect layer when the timeline for the incorrect layer starts. Then you want to also create a trigger on the incorrect layer to jump to the results slide, when the user hits continue, but only if the variable = 5.
If you allow them to retry the quiz, then make sure on the the results slide that you add a trigger to the RETRY button to set the variable equal to 0 when the user clicks the button.
I made a little demo with a 5 question bank. After 3 wrong it jumps to
I expanded the thought here a bit more in a blog post (thinking a bit more specificially about exactly where the triggers should be). You could also post the variable right on the incorrect feedback layer so they new how many they have gotten wrong as well using the format of:
"You have gotten %incorrectquestioncount% question wrong." in a textbox on this layer.
Thank you for providing me with a sample. I had to download Storyline 2 to open your file. We are in the process of purchasing the upgrade but not yet. I did get it to work. I had to change the order of my triggers on the "Incorrect" layer; was that a test? Smiling.

Good Afternoon Tracy

thank you again
Thank you Emily. Yes it was very helpful. I'm very impressed with this site and how everyone here is so helpful.
Tracy
I didn't see your second post till after I figured out the triggers, but that's a great idea to add how many you have gotten wrong.
Thank you again
