Navigation requirements: First restricted - next button is only available at the end of the timeline; second free navigation
Hello,
we have the requirements, that the next button ist online usable at the end of the timeline. It is to ensure, that the learner has heard and seen the full slide and done all interactions.
Lateron (after the first complete use of a sequenze) we would like to present the same sequenzes as performance support. Than it is necessary, that the learner can use free navigation according to interest.
How can I set the variables or triggers to fullfill both goals?
Thank you for your tipps.
“Useable at the end of the timeline” probably is not a good idea, because it may become useable before some of the learners finish.
Create a T/F variable (Interaction1Completed, e.g.) for each interaction, with a default of False.
For each interaction create a trigger (“Change variable InterractionXCompleted set to True when [action that indicates interaction X is completed]”
If the interactions are all on one slide, create a trigger “Change state of Next Button to Normal when variable InteractionXCompleted changes if Interaction1Completed = True, AND Interaction2Completed = True, AND Interaction3Completed = True”, etc.
If the interactions are on different slides, create a trigger “Change state of Next Button to Normal when timeline starts on this slide if Interaction1Completed = True, AND Interaction2Completed = True, AND Interaction3Completed = True”, etc.
Create a trigger “Change state of Next to Hidden (or Disabled) when timeline starts on this timeline if Interaction1Completed = False, OR Interaction2Completed = False, OR Interaction3Completed = False”, etc.
Thank you for your reply.
In the meantime I found different ways to change a restricted navigation to a free one, when the user has finished the slide. It works perfectly when the user is in the process of the storyline content. The learner can also pause and continue lateron.
BUT:
Whenever the learner has completed the whole sequence and uses the sequence another time for performance support, the logic of the restricted navigation starts all over again.
This also might be a problem in the LMS (we use moodle).If someone has additional tips on this further problem, I appreciate more comments.

did you have activated the resume function
but there is a problem with resume + restricted navigation (when you update the course later)
here are more infos
Thank you for your answer. Yes, the resume function is activated. Therefore it works very well when the learner stops and continues the sequence.
The problem is, whenever the learner has finished the whole sequence. After that the restricted navigation starts all over again when the learner uses the sequence again.
