Is there a way to offer a quiz at the beginning of the Rise Course that if the employee scores a certain percentage, the course is considered passed/completed? If the employee does not pass, the course must be completed in its entirety and the quiz is at the end for the employee to retake.

I'm bumping up the request to add a pre-test feature in Rise. I've been asked to add a pre-test to an existing Rise course I built for my customer and I'm sad to find out I can't do this in Rise. I 100% agree with Cathy's comment above. This feature would be great to have!

Adding our comments AGAIN...this feature is desperately needed, especially for modules that must be completed year over year. The ease of use of RISE over Storyline is great, but without this feature, we are stuck creating an initial module in RISE and a repeatable module in Storyline. Not a great use of time or resources.

This post describes how to create a Rise course with a pretest: TIP: Build a Rise Course with a Pretest - Rise 360 Discussions - E-Learning Heroes (articulate.com) Caveats: The course can't use the built-in navigation menu. The program can't tell the LMS if the user passed the pretest or if they went through the content. And it can't tell the LMS the user's score. But it can tell the LMS that the user "completed" the course. And, yes, it would be better if Articulate added the option to include a pretest that would unlock all the other content if the user passed the pretest, and require the rest of the content (possibly including a Quiz) if they failed the pretest.

Adding another vote for a pre test option. We want to add a test out option to our compliance courses which are all built in Rise. Is there any idea of when this feature may be added?

We need this is as well. We have a mixture of Storyline and Rise courses, and for Storyline we have the test-out built into the module. But for Rise, we are looking at having to use 2 modules in a section where the user has to pass one of the two modules, We would rather be able to do it all in the same module.

Yeah, we are redoing a course in Storyline this year that was in Rise because of this.

It's wild to me Rise doesn't have a pre-test option. I'd also like to add a +1 to that feature.

In an attempt to workaround this can someone clarify this for me:

"What happens when a learner takes the same quiz multiple times?

When a learner takes a quiz multiple times within the same course attempt, the most recent quiz score is sent to the LMS upon exit. For example, if they pass it, then fail it, then pass it again, only the final pass would be reported. For learners who try to retake a quiz after closing the course, what happens depends on your LMS. Usually, the LMS allows them to retake the quiz only if the course wasn’t completed. If they took the quiz and completed the course, they most likely won’t be able to retake the quiz."

Does this mean the final pass is reported because it's the most recent quiz score or is the final pass reported because it's a passing score?

Also this:

"My quiz is in a Storyline block. Are details still reported to my LMS?

Quiz details aren't reported for Storyline blocks."

Can I put the quiz in a SL block in Rise and get a pass/fail (but not a score) reported to my LMS?

  Hi Heather!
  
  Thanks for reaching out!
  
  I've included you in the feature report being tracked for allowing Pretests in Rise 360. We'll update this discussion as soon as we have news to share!
  
  In the meantime, I'd be happy to address your follow-up questions:
  
  1)
  
  Taking the quiz more than once without leaving the course:
  If one of your learners re-takes a quiz multiple times without leaving the course, the most recent quiz score will be sent to the LMS upon exit. So, they could pass it then fail it, or fail it and then pass it, and Rise 360 will report the more recent result.
  
  Leaving the course, and then launching the course again:
  If your learners completed and exited the course, and then chose to relaunch the course, most LMSs will prevent them from changing the completed score. They'll be in "review" mode and their first completion will be final.
  
  2)
  
  Quiz scores can be tracked by choosing the quiz tracking option when you publish from Storyline to Review 360, and then choosing to track the Rise course by the Storyline block. In that scenario, the quiz score will be sent to the LMS, but question-level details aren't sent to the LMS for Storyline blocks.
  
  If you're comfortable sharing which LMS you are using, perhaps other members of the community using the same one can offer additional insight!

Thanks, Steven!

Regarding making test-outs a possibility in Rise can you just offer more options in Quiz Settings:

Maybe something like, "Upon passing..." and allow a couple options that would be capabilities already in Rise - Go to next lesson, submit results and exit to LMS, etc.

And maybe a "Upon fail..." and allow a couple options that would be capabilities already in Rise - Go to next lesson, submit results and exit to LMS, etc.

Or even just give us a button stack on the quiz results slide to add some flexibility.

And is there any way you can add another feature request for allowing cut and paste images in comments like this? Having to save and upload them is a pain.

Thanks!

Alas! Someone discovered a loophole in my pretest method. Details available in the original post: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/rise-360/tip-build-a-rise-course-with-a-pretest

Also came to look into adding pre-test feature to allow employee to test out of courses. Please add a vote!

Would love a pre-test feature!! Having to make a work around that is clunky and not ideal. Add my vote!

Bumping this up again so it can be counted as another vote for this feature. Wonder if this request is getting any traction?

  Hi Kristine,
  
  Thanks for following up on this request! We're still gathering votes for this feature request to help our product team prioritize. I've added your voice to it.
  
  In the meantime, if you have additional comments on why a Rise 360 pretest feature will benefit you and your organization, please let me know. I'll add them to the feature report.

    We had to recreate two of our Annual Compliance Training modules in Storyline this year because of a lack of this feature.
