Countdown timer to Storyline Scenario for Time Management course?

Sep 11, 2020

Hello! I'm newer to Storyline and am building a Time Management course. I wanted to have learners go through a scenario but give them a 30second or 1 minute timer to get through all of the questions. 

 

Does anyone have any advice/shortcuts to do this? 

 

Thanks!

Hi Jeff,

In the attached example I have set up a one second timer on the Question Master Slide together with a countdown clock. When the question slide opens, the countdown starts and, if the user hasn't answered the question by the time the counter reaches zero, they are automatically jumped to the next slide and the response is counted as Incorrect.

You could also simply set the question slide timelines to the amount of time you wished to allocate to the questions and then use a trigger to jump to the next slide when the timeline ends for the current slide; however, without a timer, the user would not know how long they have to answer the question.

I hope this gives you some ideas to work with.
