Hi Allison,
It's true you reset the slides to their initial state, but variables must be reset separately. I've done this for you two different ways.
On slide 1.2 I added a trigger to adjust (reset) the text entry variable to "type your test here" when the timeline starts. That's what the text entry box (#29) looks like the first time around. This DOES cause the text to be highlighted when Learners type init.
On slides 1.3 an 1.4 I added triggers to adjust the text entry variables (#65 and #31) to blank when the timeline starts.
You also have a LOT of text entry variables in the trigger wizard that aren't currently being used by this slide...just a heads up.
