Displaying completed drag and drop

  • November 19, 2018

I want to create a drag and drop interaction where learners view “cards” (drag sources) and sort them into various groups (drop targets), “Good”, “Neutral” and “Bad”. There are no right or wrong answers.

This eLearning module would be hosted on the client’s LMS.

Once the interaction is submitted I would like the learner to be able to visit an adviser (in person) and show them how they have sorted the cards (ideally I imagine the learner pulling their phone out and showing the adviser). So my challenge is, how can I first save, then display the learner’s sorted cards (doesn’t need to be visual, could be text)? I want to avoid anything remotely technical for the adviser (that’s why the client pulling out their phone and navigating to the module where the sorted cards are displayed would be the easiest solution).

Any ideas would be appreciated! Thank you in advance.

    Correct answer Lilybiri

    Can you please tell which version you are using? Complete verison number please. You talk about a phone; are you creating a responsive proejct, and if yes, which workflow: Fluid Boxes or Breakpoint Views?

    Each drag action in D&D can trigger an Object actions which could be used to store the resul in user variables.  You can then retrieve those results in another slides. Are you comfortable with Advanced/Shared actions and/or JS?

    dan56​ and Lilybiri​ thank you both for your replies and apologies for not getting back to you sooner. Lilybiri, I hope you are feeling better now.

    After a lot of thought and research I have decided to abandon that approach to what I was trying to build. The complexity was way too high and the resulting SCORM outpuit was behaving in some odd ways.

    So, no further help needed. Thank you both very much for your help though.

    Dear Lilybiri, and all,

    I have a similar issue.

    I have created a drag and drop game with several slides, where all answers are more or less correct.

    The selections should inspire the students and create the basis for a discussion.

    I am using Captivate 2019 (11.0.0.243)

    I want the answers to save after the fourth try but everytime one gets to the last slide or reopens the scorm paket on the LMS it resets so students have to start over again.

    Also I would like to give them the option to print a pdf or something.

    Do you have any suggestions or other related posts?

    I am not sure on how to connect the actions with the advanced actions or variables...

    Thank you for your help.

    Please update to the most recent version which is 11.0.1.266!

    If you had no training about advanced/shared actions and variable it will be tough. I have posted several blogs about use cases, also with drag&drop. However, if you are not used to actions/variables it may be over your head.

    You launch a print command (JS) but the setup (to pdf) of the printer will have to be done by the learner.

    Hi Lilybiri

    Thank you for your response - it helped a great deal.

    Version: 2017 Release 10.0.1.285

    I am using Fluid Boxes

    Based on what you suggested I used Object actions to assign a literal value (e.g. “Good”, “Neutral” and “Bad”) to variables (e.g. Card1, Card2, Card3).

    I would now like to display the results in a text list as follows but I am now not sure how. Any advice gratefully received!

    Thank you again for your help.

    Good

    Card3

    Card5

    Neutral

    Card2

    Card1

    Bad

    Card4

    To be clear, it is in the next slide that I want the text list displayed.
