Scoring correct clicks on a Software simulation

Mar 17, 2022

Hi Everyone

I have searched here but not found an answer I am sure someone has done this before.

I have created a software simulation and would like to award the learner with a score for every time they click a correct spot on the screen.

Then I would like to display their overall score at the end of the simulation.

Would love to get your ideas.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks in advance

That sounds like the screen-recording test mode. Here's more info about that:

However, since you've already built a custom simulation, you'll have to do the programming to track the scores. How to do that depends on how your simulation works.

One option: you could use a number variable, and then add triggers to the clickable spots that either add to the number (if it's the correct spot) or subtract from the number (if it's incorrect).

Then, on your custom results slide, use the value of the number variable to show the appropriate content about their score. That could be done via hiding/showing objects, changing states, or using layers (like the Success and Failure layers on a standard Results slide).
