Essay Questions

Hello everyone. Using Articulate 360 is there now a way to build an essay question and have that entered response be transferred to an LMS? Under question options, I see no essay option. Basically, they read a document and then provide a write-up response that an instructor will need to grade.

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Richard,

You'll find the option for an Essay question under the Survey type. 

If you add a Survey results slide after the Essay question, the Essay response data should be sent to your LMS.   I'd recommend reaching out to your LMS Administrator to find out what options they have available for reporting and data analysis.

Hello Everyone,

We are creating course content with SL3. We are using Learndash as our LMS. We are using Learndash quizzes to assess rather a student passes or fails our courses. We use Storyline questions as exercises throughout a Storyline course, but we don't retain the students answers to these questions, but we need to. We publish our courses to Web (not LMS). For the puspose of capturing StoryLine quiz answers we are considering a purchase of GrassBlade LRS and xAPI Companion. 

With all this in mind, I did not see where the issue that Aaron originally was working on was ever resolved. Our requirement is similar to what his was. We need to capture student answers to Articulate Storyline text / essay questions. If / when a student leaves our site in mid-course and later returns we need to be able to retrieve the previously recorded essay question answers (I assume we need an LRS for this) and reload them into the pertinent Articulate Storyline slides. If the student needs to go back to the slide with the essay question we need to be able to redisplay their previous response.

I would appreciate knowing  if / how others have done something like this. Is a LRS necessary to do this or is there some other way? I read the forum post with Stephanie's wonderful solution.

Thank you,

Connie
