Drag and drop gives incorrect feedback
I suggest you reconsider the approach to this. As Ron pointed out, items can only be dropped on the correct target. So the user would always answer this question correctly. But they aren't getting any feedback on why the "No" candidates shouldn't be interviewed.
To me, it was confusing to drag large (but various-sized) objects to much smaller objects. Based on the look of the slide, I thought I'd be able to click Yes or No for the item shown, and then submit that answer. I only knew to drag-and-drop because you told me to.
Also, because the items disappear when dropped correctly, there's no possibility of reviewing the text.
Bottom line: I think it would be better to use separate Yes/No questions (i.e., T/F questions with the answers relabeled) for each candidate. That would allow you to provide specific feedback on why each candidate should or shouldn't be interviewed.
Hi Judy
You make a great point. There's too much text for each situation to make a drag and drop look good and it will be very challenging to try to add feedback for each drop event.
I will have another look at this.
Thank you and have a great day! This community is awesome. :) :) x 1 million
BTW, drag-and-drops aren't accessible (at least, not without special extra programming to make them doable via keyboard). That's another reason to switch the question format.
