Card Sorting Activity in 360

Oct 22, 2018

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to build a card activity in storyline 360.  It will have two columns one labelled "interested" and one labelled "not interested."   The learner would be presented with a deck of cards with various topics on it.   They would then need to drag the topics into one of the two columns.  Once they have completed dragging all of the cards they would be taken to a screen that summarizes what they have chosen in two separate lists.  For example these are all of the topics that you are interested in.  Has anyone attempted to do anything close to the above or have any idea how I might accomplish this?  Thank you.

I'm also interested in a feature like this, but I have 50 cards to handle! ...

I guess what to do here is to make a variable named %C01Int% and give it the value 1 if the card is placed on the green hot spot in your example. The next card will get the variable name %C02Int%, and so on.

(Maby its easier to create a new state called Chosen and used that, instead of a variable, but I am not experienced enough to know if the variable solution is more useful further on in the project, for example when the cards are not displayed in the picture)

Then I would like the selected cards (eg 10 pieces) to be presented at the top of page nr 2.

Showing them is not that difficult; it's only a matter of setting the State of the card to Normal on all those who have the variable = 1, but I would like to sort them so that the selected cards appear at the top of the page.

Unfortunately, I do not find any good sorting feature in Storyline. Is there any like that?

Hi - we would LOVE to build similarly and agree yours is very close Joanne. Ours is for c. 100 word card sort, ideally with four categories, enabling our users to come up with a list of 10 values that are uniquely important to them. So categories might be 'Can't live without', 'Very important', 'Important', 'Not at all important'. Ideally the user would be able to review the list at the end. Even better if they can make some adjustments (but not essential). 

How did you go in the end Lisa? I like the idea of your skills one too!
