Quiz Question: Can Total Score Calculate Instead of %?
Hello -- I've used the multiple choice quiz functionality to create a self-assessment. Each response results in a different number of points for each question. Then, I'd like to provide a total score at the end and coach them on next steps based on their total score (i.e. If you score less than XX points, do YY). I can't see where it's possible to change the quiz results to whole number instead of percent. Is this possible? If not, is there another way to do this (other than using quiz) in Storyline?
The built-in ScorePoints variable contains the total points for a graded quiz. So you could delete the ScorePercent info from your Results slide could just show ScorePoints instead.
You could then provide customized feedback by using triggers with conditions that check the points.
- For example, show a given feedback statement when the ScorePoints < XX, else show a different feedback statement.
- That feedback could be shown by using one object with separate states for each potential feedback.
- Or you could use separate objects for each piece of feedback. Give them all an Initial State of Hidden, and then use conditional triggers to show the appropriate one.
Another option would be to use custom questions. This post provides info about that: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/tip-track-responses-to-custom-questions-or-surveys
Or you could do a combination of those methods (i.e., use special tracking variables on graded questions).
The "best" way is the one that meets your needs. 😁
