2 texts and a multiple choice

  • December 17, 2020

I'm new to this quiz stuff.  I want to display a PDF onscreen, ask them for a document type and date of document (both text entry fields), and several yes/no questions (8 to be precise - I figure multiple choice works for that).

 

I've gotten it to work by displaying the PDF on 3 screens and asking for the type, date, and yes/nos on their own slide.  I figure I can combine the two text fields on one slide, but I can't find any way to ask for all of the information on one slide.

 

Is there any way to get 2 test fields and multiple choice questions on the same slide?

    Please update to 11.5.5.553.

    Do you want to create eLearning? 100PDFs?? Very weird.

    You cannot add Text Entry Boxes to a quiz slide. But you can create a custom question slide using Text Entry boxes; and eventually use checkbox images, or radiobutton images used as buttons. There are two static Learning Interactions labeled that way, but since they are static they do not have an automatic scoring functionality as is the case for any type of button. You would need advanced or shared actions with some user variables as well.

    Since you are new to Captivate's quizzes this may be over you head however. It looks like even basics of quiz slides are unknown.

    This forum is to help you solve problems, which I would like to do. But it looks like you need training in the first place.

    You forgot to give some details:

    • Which exact version number are you using. You find it under Help, About Captivate.
    • Do you want to score the different actions to be done by the learner?
    • Do you need to transfer the score to a LMS? Or is it only meant as Knowledge check, eventually showing the resulting points?

    You can use Text Entry Boxes, multiple ones on a slide. Each Text Entry Box can be scored.

    I'm using v2019 (11.5.1.499).

     

    So as I originally stated, I'm going to show them a PDF file, and ask for 2 field entry fields and a series of yes/no questions.  Based on those entries, the problem is either considered right or wrong.  I'm going to show them between 50 and 100 PDF files.

     

    The problem I have is I can't show 2 text entry boxes AND a series of checkboxes on the same slide.  When I choose a Multiple Choice Quiz slide, it blocks the option of a text entry field.

     

    Yes, I do want to send the scores to an LMS, and I will not give them their score or what they got right or wrong until the assessment is complete.
