Best Way to Create Multi-Part Spelling Quiz in Storyline 360 with Custom Scoring

Hi Heroes,

I'm working on a spelling quiz in Storyline 360 and need some advice on the best approach. Here's what I'm trying to build:

Quiz:

Scoring Requirement:

  • Learners need to get 3 out of 4 OR 4 out of 4 correct to receive 1 point total
  • If they get 2 or fewer correct, they receive 0 points
  • This counts as a single question worth 1 point in the overall course

My Challenge: I've considered using drop-down menus for each option, but I'm struggling with:

  1. Whether drop-downs are the most efficient approach
  2. How to set up the scoring logic to award 1 point only if they achieve 3-4 correct
  3. How to track all 4 sub-questions and evaluate them together

Questions:

  • What's the best question type or combination to use for this scenario?
  • How do I set up variables to track the 3/4 passing threshold?
  • Is there a simpler built-in solution?

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

    If you want to closely replicate the setup from your screenshot, then I think using a Pick-One Freeform question type is your best bet. See attached a quick example. Based on the number of correct choices for the 4 questions,  off-screen Correct/Incorrect buttons are selected and then the choice is submitted for scoring. Have a look and see if that helps you along.
