FREE: 8-Bit style True/False Quiz with novel use of scrolling panels
Mar 17, 2020
Hello everyone!
This week I went down a JavaScript rabbit hole following a discussion with Preethi and Chris during this week's ELH Challenge. In her brilliant demo for ELHC #273 Using Scrolling Panels, Preethi used a snazzy bit of code to trigger events and actions based on the position of the scrolling panel, making it function a bit like a slider.
I recommend you check out this thread, where Preethi, Chris and I discuss the technical aspects in a bit more detail.
TL;DR this is a really cool way of making scrolling panels more versatile
Inspired by this discussion, I went back to opengameart.org and cobbled together this retro style true/false quiz.
CAN YOU CROSS QUESTION CANYON?

The fonts used in this demo are PLAYBILL, APPLE GARAMOND and 8 BIT WONDER, which can be found here:

It's subtle, but you'll see that the coins are disabled until the scroll panel reaches the correct position.
For more great examples of this JavaScript in use, check out ELHC #273!

This is super cool, Jonathan! Love the design. Thanks for sharing. One small thing I would change if this were my project would be to not have learners do multiple attempts. Since there are only 2 possible answers (true or false), if learners get it wrong, they already know what the correct answer is. Just my 2 cents! ;)
Totally agree, this is very much a proof of concept not a rigorous assessment, but could easily be adapted to have more than two possible answers.
As it's currently pitched this is more of a school level assessment with an emphasis on fun and learning by repetition/elimination, crossing the canyon through multiple attempts.
Gotcha! Makes total sense. ;) It's a great example!
Just a heads up that I added this to the downloads hub. Thanks again for sharing, Jonathan :)
Thanks Alison!
