I have a slide with 5 Modules-4 disabled button Modules. Learners are to complete each module before moving onto the next. Module 2 button changes state to normal when module 1 button is visited; etc. There's a quiz per module and Final Results slide that tabulates all 5 module quizzes. If learner does not pass in the Final Results, How can I reset the initial Module slide (that has already been visited 3 times) so learners must start in sequence from module 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5.
Have you considered creating a second menu slide (a duplicate of the first menu slide) that is only accessible if the learner does not pass in the Final Results slide? That way, instead of jumping back to the original menu slide which has already been viewed multiple times, the learner will jump to the duplicate menu slide, which requires them to complete the sequence of modules from 1 to 5 again. Does that make sense?
Interested to hear any other ideas your fellow community members have to share!
Be sure to change the setting of the duplicate menu slide to "Reset to initial state." That way, every time the learner fails, they will be directed back to that menu slide at it's initial state.
Be sure to let us know if you have any further questions!
yes but the learner will be directed back to that slide to complete the next module, thus resetting it and creating a loop.
sounds like there's no solution. i was trying to be creative. i ended up removing all the buttons and just created a linear type of course, 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 then final results and if standard isn't met, it goes back to 1
I like your idea - you can put a menu slide between every module. Since you have 5 modules, that would be 5 menu slides. Each menu slide would allow the learner to click on only the next module and all previous modules. That way the learner would feel like they are always returning to the same menu slide, but really they are moving through the course linearly.
Best of luck to you on the rest of your project! If you come across any more road blocks, be sure to reach out!

Hi George!

Thx Ayoub but that won't work because the slide will be reset each time it's visited thus creating a loop.
Thx Alyssa but the problem come up again if the leaner does not pass a second time.

Great point, George. I hadn't thought of that. :)

YES! That would definitely work! Thx for your help Alyssa.
No problem George - glad we could put our heads together to find a solution!
