Must the "exit course" button be there?

In other words -

  • Learner answers "True" - proceeds to course (I presume)
  • Learner answers "False" - gets two options:
    • Hide layer, continue somewhere
    • You have "exit course" - Make this another "hide layer" - proceed to a subsequent slide that does nothing more than function as a placeholder before exiting the course.

If the purpose of the T/F is to provide learners the chance to demonstrate or show that they know the material and therefore do not need to take the course, then I probably wouldn't have them directly exit the course anyway. On that placeholder slide I would consider putting something like a "You've shown that you don't need to take this course. If you want to exit, choose the exit... If you want to review the material anyway, choose the material..." Or something similar.

    HI J,

    Thank you for responding so quickly I appreciate your suggestions. What you suggested is similar to what I ended up doing to overcome this. 

    However, I am still wondering why the 'exit course' trigger is overriding the 'hide layer' trigger.
