Question

Drag & Drop - 4 drag sources, only 3 right answers

Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a drag and drop and running into some issues.  I will try my best to explain my issues.

I have 4 check marks (drag sources) and 4 employees (drag targets).  3 of the employees are the correct answers but any of the 4 check marks would work on the three correct targets.  See below.  When I preview it as it is, I get an incorrect message, I believe because not all four check marks are used.  I don't want to only put 3 check marks and give away the answer.  I used the Drag & Drop Wizard for this page.

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!

    I tend to agree with Rod, but you can still use DD if you want. You'll need a boolean variable (value either 0 or 1) for each target and advanced actions that assign 1 to a drop on each target. The advanced actions will also have to track which target variables have a value of 1: if the three correct target variables all have a value of 1 AND the incorrect target variable has a value of 0 the exercise has been answered correctly.

    I think you are correct that you are getting the interaction marked as correct because it is expecting all four drag sources must be placed on a target.

    Personally I don't think this is a good use case for a drag and drop.  You'd be better off presenting this particular interaction as a normal Multiple Response quiz question with four answer options, only three of which need to be selected in order to get the question correct.
