How can I view and save, "Text Entry Field" entered by a user in Storyline?
Again... thanks Judy! I think that my confusion comes from the following aspects.
- Each slide should contain a video.
- Each slide must contain four separate fields where users will enter data.
- I need this entered Text data to appear somewhere that I can track it.
- I see that there is a Slide type called: Survey Question
- I see that there is a Survey Question type called "Short Answer," as you pointed out.
- And I see how I can insert a video onto this Short Answer Survey slide.
However... This scenario only allows me to ask one question. I need to ask four questions about the video. I find it strange that Graded Questions, Survery Questions, and Freeform Questions all seem to have a "one question per slide" limit. Am I wrong about this?
Maybe you could just tell me whether what I am trying to accomplish is even possible. I took a look at the article notes on xAPI... and this is outside my wheelhouse. I'm willing to learn what all of this is... but I'd like to first find out if it is even possible. I don't want to dive in and start trying to learn about xAPI, if this will also not allow me to ask four questions on the same slide as a video.
I really appreciate your help.

I don't have the expertise to provide any advice about xAPI.
For scoring/reporting purposes that conform to SCORM standards, there is a one-question-per-slide limit. Sorry, but that's just the way it is.
If you want to get the responses to 4 questions about a single video, you will need 4 graded-question or survey slides.
- To avoid repeating the video, you could show it on one slide, then follow that slide with the question slides. Put a button on each question slide that lightboxes the slide with the video.
The other option would be to use an Essay Survey slide, and ask the users to enter all four answers in one field. The full response from that field would be reported to the LMS. Of course, to be graded, a survey response has to be pulled from the LMS and manually graded. How you reconcile that with successful completion is up to you and your LMS team.
Note: For the system to score the entered text on a graded question, the typed response must match what you enter as the correct response in FORM VIEW. You can indicate whether the answer is case sensitive. And you can enter up to 10 variations that are acceptable. Obviously, that isn't a good option for questions that could be correctly answered in more than 10 ways. In other words, it's designed for simple fill-in-the-blank questions (not open-ended responses).
