Multiple Response Questions
I had a request from a stakeholder regarding multiple response questions in a quiz. In the past learners have failed questions because they have not selected the correct number of responses. The request is... Is it possible where the learner selects the correct responses but not enough responses… if they select the wrong answer as the first choice then no second attempt is allowed.
I don’t believe I can set it up that if they select only the correct responses, but not enough, unless anyone has any thoughts on how to do this?
But I have set up a variable and a trigger to add 1 to the variable if they select any answer, and a trigger to show an 'Insufficient Reponses' layer if they do not select the right number of responses. The variable is working, but when I click on submit it is still taking me to the ‘Incorrect’ layer and not the 'Insufficient Responses' layer. Is there another way of making this work?
I'm not on a computer with Storyline right now, so I can't look at your file. Best guess is that the trigger to show the Insufficient Responses layer comes before the Submit ___ trigger. So that layer probably does show, but the Incorrect layer also shows, and it happens so quickly that you just see the Incorrect layer.
- Possible solution: Use one trigger that shows the Insufficient Layer if the variable = the "wrong" number, with an Else statement that submits the interaction.
I'll also point you to this post, which has a file that demonstrates how to ensure someone selects the correct number of responses: TIP: Limit How Many Selections a User Can Make on a Multiple-Response (Pick-Many) Question | Articulate - Community
Another option that might help: Have the instructions include how many responses are correct (e.g., "Select the 2 correct answers.")
(BTW, if the instructions say "Select all that apply," yet the user doesn't select all of the correct responses, then that shows that they don't know the full answer... )
Thanks for the response Judy
Yeah, we have got 'Select the X correct answers' but the feedback from the STakeholder was that they could still make a mistake by not selecting the correct number of answers (they should really slow down and read instructions tbh🙃), so wanted an option of a second attempt with the above conditions.
I had a look at the link and that was very helpful, I like their suggestion.
