Separate quiz review slides for correct/incorrect?
- 3 months ago
Yes, it is possible. And you don't need to use variables.
When a question slide has a layer called "Review," the program will automatically show that layer during a review.
- Storyline automatically creates that layer if you enter text in the Post-quiz review field in Form View.
- Or you can add a layer yourself, and name it "Review" (use that exact name).
On that layer, you'll need to provide both versions of the feedback. I think the easiest method is to use separate states (e.g., "correct" and "incorrect") of the same object. Here's how to show the appropriate message during review.
For a Multiple Choice question, add a trigger that changes the object to the "correct" state when the timeline of the layer starts with the condition that the correct response button = Selected. Add an Else statement that changes the object to the "incorrect" state.
For a Multiple Response question, the trigger needs a condition for each response. Note: for the wrong answers, use the condition "≠ Selected." (All built-in states are built on Normal, so "=Normal" doesn't work well in these situations.)
This is demonstrated in the attached file.
FYI: It is worth the effort to learn about variables and trigger conditions, because they provide the real power in Storyline. Here’s more information:
