Pre test as an option to Opt-Out of the Learning Module
Hi Team,
I would like to do a Pre-test as an option to opt-out of the learning module scene's but based off of the questions.
Example, If I have 10 questions in my pre test and I got question 2&7 incorrect I would like the learner to learn the content regarding only those two questions and then re sit the question.
Are there any examples? I have looked but unable to find. Would prefer 360 but rise would also work if needed.
Rise 360 doesn't have that functionality. It is possible with Storyline 360.
You could use True/False variables to track which questions are answered correctly and incorrectly. Then use triggers with conditions to steer the user to the appropriate scenes. For example, have a menu that shows buttons to the required scenes.
You could repeat each question at the end of the related scene. Or you could include a Final Assessment, with special conditional triggers to show only the necessary questions. Or you could make them repeat all the questions, to help ensure they didn't just make lucky guesses the first time.
It’s worth the effort to learn about variables and trigger conditions, because they provide the real power in Storyline. Here’s more info info.

These posts aren't about your exact situation. But they might be helpful, because they provide examples of conditional triggers for navigation.
Hi NikkiGillam-666 did you figure this out? You could do a trigger for each question and if they answer wrong it takes them to the slides with the content you want them to review and once reviewed back to the next question of the pre-test. It would be a lot of triggers but could work!
We create a pretest with an individual question bank for each topic/module and if they meet the minimum score needed for the pretest - we pass them out of those modules - they can still view the content but they don't have to take the exam associated with the module. Then as they go into the course they will see passed checkmarks on any module they have passed and required viewing for the modules still to pass. It gets tricky because each client is a little different - on their pass rate - or attempt rate. Some want to limit the number of attempts on a module but have the learner be graded on the overall score - others want to be passed only if they pass all of the modules.
The final tricky elements is they ALL want to see the reporting of the questions and answers - and that is tough if they attempt a pretest once then the modules many times then back to the reporting page - often many empty unanswered questions get reported and they require finesse on the part of the client to know how to download the FULL report as well as how to filer out the blanks.
Oh and to boot they also want to learn how the learn passed the course and how many attempts they made on each module :). Lots of java script and variables! Lots of fights with the export as the course wants to default the reporting and I have to turn off various stages to prevent the empty blanks or to allow it to grade, review and reset and then report :).
