Free-Form Question Naming (for reporting)
So, I'm working on a project where we want to be able to see the responses to questions in the project. The questions are just to gather data (similar to a survey), rather than actual quiz questions. I have 4 questions that are free-form (because I'm not a fan of how the slide templates look), and 3 that are technically survey questions.
When I open the reporting in the LMS, I can see the responses to the questions, but the naming for each question refers to the scene/slide and the question type in its name. It gives me an identifier, which is helpful, but if I'm not the one looking at the report, you need a lot of information about the questions themselves to be able to understand what questions are associated with the responses.
Is there any way to change the names of either of these question types so that it's easier to see what questions the responses belong to?

Unfortunately, it doesn't send the question. It just submits an ID that includes the scene, slide, etc.
I suggest you create a quiz key with the IDs and the actual questions for whomever will be analyzing the responses.

Hello,
I have a write-up about how to set up Question Text Reporting in the Litmos LMS on my Resources page on my Memorable Learning website. Perhaps this will work for you in your LMS, too.
If this answers your question, please mark it solved. Otherwise, feel free to ask a follow-up question.
Thanks for sending that over. Looking through it, I don't think that will work for me. I may just need to dig into the LMS and see if there's a way in there.

Thanks for that information Judy--helpful to know!
You're welcome! Pay it forward when you can. 😊
By the way, you can find all of the User Guides here:
Currently, the LMS field in question is retrieving an incorrect SCORM 2004 data model element. It is configured to pull cmi.interactions.n.id and cmi.interactions.n.type, whereas it should be retrieving cmi.interactions.n.description in order to display the actual question text or interaction description.
Contact your LMS administrator to verify whether this configuration can be added or amended accordingly.
