Question draw with one question
Hi
Here is a simplification of a problem I'm having on a gamified project. I wonder if it is even possible to do this on Articulate 360...
What I'm trying to do: I have a scene (Sc 1) where on some slides I put a link which the student clicks on and is then taken to a single question - a random question drawn from a question bank (QB1); after answering the question, the student is taken back to the original slide and continues the scene until the link pops up again a few slides further on.
Problem: At the moment, when I go to the question bank for the first time, a random question is chosen, I answer it then I'm returned to the original slide (So far, all good). Unfortunately, when I do it subsequent times (all within Sc 1), I always get the same question as the one I got the first time.
So... Is there a way while in one scene to randomly jump in and out of a question bank taking a different question each time?
Or would it work better by taking the questions from their own scene (ScQs1) with randomizing variables rather than a question bank?
Thank you
Hi, Mark!
I'm sorry you are having an issue with question banks! I would love to test out a few options that may solve this for you. Would you be willing to share your files here or reach out to our Support Engineers privately in a support case?
Thanks for reaching out!
Thanks for replying, John.
Just to be clear, I am not having a problem with the question banks - I just wanted to know what the limit of their features is. (My example above was just a simple way of explaining the context)
From your response, it seems that a single question bank draw is unable to draw single random questions from a bank to be distributed over a scene multiple times (and multiple draws wouldn't work either as they would risk some questions being repeated).
Knowing what I can't do is a big step forward so now I can start working on an alternative design. Many thanks
Best wishes, Mark
Hi John
I have made up an example of the issue. Perhaps it is clearer than my description above.
I've also sent a copy to Joe Tansengco
Best wishes, Mark
Hi, Mark!
Thanks for sharing your file with Joe and I! You're in great hands with Joe. He will continue to work with your file and hopefully get you a solution!
Thanks for reaching out!
