Show Web Object only when learner clicks on button

I saw somewhere but cant find it now the command/toggle that makes the student open the web object for an incorrect answer. Can you tell me how to bring up that command/toggle?

  • Here are a couple of ideas. You can look at the .story file to see how it works, but you have to publish it and view it to see it in action.

    I just sent it to a website I'm currently working on.

      I figured it out. Edit the Web Object and uncheck "Load Web Object Automatically"

  • Not sure what I am supposed to look for on your sample, can you give me specific instructions?

     

    What I am asking about feedback using web objects on a specific slide. Right now, the web page launches automatically, I want to web page to launch only when the user clicks it, so that he can read the feedback in Articulate first.  I believe that is a question specific/incorrect layer command

  • Layer 1 shows the webobject loading, and layer 2 shows the web object when the learner clicks . One shows when you choose Correct, and the other when you choose Incorrect.

      So I replace the native Incorrect layer with these two layers?

      Does this solution work with the Results slide at the end. I will need it with each of my 51 questions as each one goes to a different review page?
      Should I use layer 1 as my Incorrect Feedback and layer 2 as my correct Feedback?

  • Sorry, I left one of the triggers off, but it's updated and should run now.

  • Actually, my layers are intended to illustrate triggers that "makes the student open the web object for an incorrect answer."  Use them as models to build what you want. If you want the learner to click submit, and immediately see the review if their answer is wrong, follow the pattern of layer 1 for your Incorrect layer. If you want them to get a message that says they have answered incorrectly, then click an object, then see the review, use the pattern of layer two for your trigger. Either way, you can put the appropriate actions on the built-in Incorrect layer.

    If, as you say, each one goes to a different review page, then yes, you need one for each question. Besides, it is better pedagogical practice to make feedback immediate, so you don't want to wait until the end to give the review.

  • Hi, 

    I used your layer 2 on Question 1expecting that the learner can read the incorrect message and then click on the underlined text to view the web page,but instead the page opens automatically. How can I author so it works as i expect.

  • you can do it with pause/resume of the layer timeline

    • web object starts at 0.5 sec
    • trigger: when the timeline reaches 0.25 sec -> pause timeline
    • trigger: on click "url link" -> resume timeline

     

  • Jurgen's method will work. This sample has two other methods that will work. In all three cases, you change the built-in Incorrect layer. You can study the .story files to learn how it is done, but you will have to publish them to see it in action.

      I will look at these tomorrow Walt. I assume all the info I need is in the layer triggers, thanks Alan
