Customize the fill in the blank question.
I am wondering about the same thing, so thanks for the question & answer. I have courses that need "reflection" questions. I tried the survey options and they work, but they're not perfect for my purpose. Couldn't a Storyline slide be brought in for this?
I've also tried using the fill-in-the-blank knowledge check for this purpose. The only problem is that the feedback always says "Incorrect". If there were a way to turn this off, that might work too.
Thanks, Joan, for that perspective! I love the idea of using a Storyline block to fully customize the text entry experience. One thing to keep in mind is that Storyline won't report on the learner's answers there or save it once they navigate away from the lesson.

I've got similar experience. I really want the learner to pause, and think. For this I use the fill in blank. In the end, I'm not interested in exactly what they write, instead I offer a more general remark as feedback. Thing is, displaying "Incorrect" feels like you did something wrong.
If that message, and icon, could be altered, or just disabled, that would make my week.
Hi Andrea, thanks for your feedback!
If you're looking for an open-ended, free-text question, I suggest embedding a survey from a third-party tool (like Google Forms or Survey Monkey) using a Multimedia Embed block.
Use this iFrame code format for easy embedding!
