Drag and drop interaction

Hi Astrid,

What kind of feedback are you looking to give them? If you just want to let them know if they dropped the drag item in the right or wrong spot, I would:

1. Add correct and incorrect drop states (here's more info on how to work with drop states)
2. Uncheck the box "delay item drop states until interaction is submitted" (see this article about drag and drop options).

I hope that helps! :)

Thank you Allison, so much! I will check your links, try again and I will
get back to you.

Hi Astrid,

When I first read your question about having a drag and drop mark something in the correct sequence, I was sure that it could be done with variables.  However, it's a little tricker than anticipated because you need variables for each item dropped, plus a variable to count the order of the sequence.  I've mocked up a sample below.  Let me know if you have any questions.

Here's a much easier option.  Make a separate target for each step of the sequence, that way no variables are required.

Thank you! exactly...that is what I am looking for: one target, and we have
to drop the elements in the right sequence otherwise they will not fit in
the target! Let me check it out and I will get back to you.

Thank you so much again.

Linda: This option is great, if I paraphrase the question for the interaction. Learners will still see the idea of the activity. I want to review your variable option:  I do not get  why the counting variable but it makes sense to me that  a true/false variable option is possible.

Thank you for your help!

When I used the T/F variables without the count variable, if I put purple first , blue second and green third in the target area, purple would be marked as wrong, the blue would be marked as correct (purple & green were both still false) and green would be marked as correct (blue was true, purple was false).  I needed to add the count so that it could determine if the order was correct.
