Words Per Minute Test in Articulate
Hello - does anyone know of a way to create a Words Per Minute quiz in Storyline that times the learner and is able to count the number of words? This would be built as a SCORM file. Thank you in adv...
A few months ago, I had a similar request from one of our clients regarding word count functionality. The requirements were as follows:
- The text entry field remains disabled until the learner presses the Start Timer button.
- The Start Timer button should have the ability to both start and pause the timer.
- The text entry field should be disabled whenever the learner pauses the timer and enabled again when the timer resumes.
- The word count function should only work while the timer is running.
- The process should be repeatable when the timer reaches 0, allowing the learner to restart the activity.
This activity involves JavaScript for both the timer and word count. Here’s the solution I came up with, though the design has been modified.
