Pre-Test/Post-Test Framework

Thanks Drew for sharing here - it's been a common question lately to have a pre/post test. 

Hi Drew,

Tx for doing this. I thought your explanatory video was well done. And I don't think I've seen an example where someone accommodate  Maximum number of tries for a Pre/Post Test.

Hello, I am in need of a pre/post test format just like this. Thank you so much. However, I get a weird script text when I try to download the file from the link above. Is there another way to get access to the file? Thanks in advance.

Hi Carmen! See if this link works for you.

That worked! Thank you very much Leslie!

Glad to hear it!

Hi Drew. I have a question about one of the buttons in slide 2.2 (content 2). What was the reason for adding a 'Next' button instead of re-using the 'Close Review' button. I can see that the Next button is used after someone passes the post test at 100% and reviews the material. Just can't understand the reason for not using the 'Close Review' button. Can you explain? I'm probably missing something, but can't figure it out. Thanks much.

Hi Cindy,

I'm not sure if Drew is still subscribed to this forum thread as it's a bit older, but you may be able to message him using the "contact me" button on his profile to see if he's able to explain his set up. 

Thanks for the heads-up Ashley. I've sent Drew a message as you suggested.

Hi Cindy,

I have the same question for Drew. Did you pm him or did you ever get an answer from him on this?

Hey Ruchika - I don't know the answer to your question, but you are welcome to reach out to either user directly via the 'Contact Me' option on the user profile.

Hi Drew,

Thank you so much for sharing this solution. I was really looking for something like this. Although, when I am implementing this with CSOD (my LMS),  - when I pass, this works fine; but when i fail this scenario after consuming my 3 attempts, the course does not pass a status = "failed"; my status still remains "in progress". The way I would like it to function is that the status of the course in LMS turns to failed if the user fails his 3 attempts. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks again!

Thank you, Leslie. I will do that.

Hello Team,

It has been a few years since I posted this framework, but I know once I used it in a true production project at work, I did add a javascript scorm call under certain conditions to set LMS status. I would have to do some digging to find that solution, but I will see what I can find.

Thank you Drew. I also figured that with this solution, if user does not accept the bookmarking upon re-entering the course, all the course variables are reset - making this solution not usable in my case, unless I create a separate code to override the usual bookmarking code. So, I am deciding to do this through our LMS, rather than from within the course.

Anyways, I would still like to thank you for your great solution, I learned a lot about how i can do things differently in Storyline. 

Again I slept since I built this, but I believe variables in Storyline hold their values between sessions.

Hi Ruchika,

If the user chooses not to resume it'll treat the course as if they are starting over from the beginning and therefore reset the value of the variables. If they choose to resume it should return to where they left off and also have the value of the variables still included.

I also believe your project in Storyline can prevent presenting this resume option to the user at run-time.   This ensures that the values would be persistent. 

Hi Ruchika,

  I sent a pm but didn't get a response.  I think I found a way to make it work, but that was 6 months ago so can't remember how. The file was extremely helpful for what we needed and I used the base to build a whole new set of Health & Safety self-paced training. I ended up making a few revisions to get it working with our requirements, which were a bit different in spots.
