Storyline360: Leave and return to quiz
Hello All,
I have a course with a quiz. I set the player to have a restricted menu, which I prefer so the learner can go back and review slides while they are taking the quiz. I am also using a "headless" setup, where the next/prev/submit buttons are disabled for all slides. I use my own controls to manage progression.
However, the issue comes about when the learner leaves the quiz to view an older slide and wants to come back to the quiz. What is the best way to maintain the learner's progress in the quiz when they return? See the attached test course. My test process:
- Run through the course and get into the quiz
- Instead of answering question 2, use the menu to jump back to slide 1 or 2.
- Use the menu to jump back to the "Quiz Intro" slide.
- Now, it makes you submit question 1 again.
So in the end, how do I get it to resume the quiz where we left off?
SOLVED
By implementing a number variable, I track which question slide they are currently on (1, 2, 3, etc.). When they click on a different menu item, then back to the quiz introduction slide, the quiz intro slide will jump to the corresponding question they left off from. Simple enough. Attached is the same project but with the change made.
We must also think of if the learner was on the results slide and jumped away, for this I defined a question number 99.
I tested all this and it works, even if they need to retake the quiz and it only resets the incorrect questions.
