Question

Look for ideas on how to include 3 bonus questions at the end of a quiz. I have it set up in Captivate, but it doesn't look like my LMS (Taleo/Oracle) will give me a report in points.

Hey all, I am looking for any ideas on how to make this happen in captivate.
We want to build a quiz and based on how you do on the quiz, you will earn entries into a prize drawing.

Example: you must get 80% to pass the quiz and receive an entry. Then there are 3 bonus questions where you receive an entry for each correct bonus question as long as you have passed the quiz.

How I set this up:

Gave each question a point value of 10 then each bonus question a value of 1 so I can determine how many bonus questions they got correct.

I even programmed some advanced actions to tell the user how many entries they earned based on their score (I was proud of myself for this!)

Problem:

Looks like my LMS will only give me a report in percent for score even though I have the points option selected in publish settings. I am getting a score in percent which totally washes out my point values for the questions.

Does anyone have any other ideas of how to make this happen in one file?

I suppose I could do two different project files but would love to include these in the same project.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Ok thanks. I will try that. For now, because of time limitations, I think I am going to just make two quizzes for this project (normal quiz and bonus quiz) but definitely something here I want to look into for the future. Thanks for your help and speedy response.

In both versions of SCORM the results are always reported to the LMS as a real number.

It is assumed in SCORM 1.2 that the min and max are 0 and 100, with the actual score reported as 0 to 100.

In SCORM 2004 it could be the same with the exception that the scaled score is what is used to actually determine passing. It is reported as 0 to 1. So a passing percentage/score of 80 would be .8.

Choose your passing criteria to points instead of a percentage.

How you LMS shows the score is a manipulation of a number, it's not stored as a percentage.

If you have 10 questions worth 10 points each you could not have bonus questions as the result would be 103 which is over the max.

If they were worth 9 points then the max score could be 93 and could be reported as such. Your passing score of 80% would be 72 points. If it returned 74 you would know they got 2 bonus questions.

David, the OP has indicated to report points, not percentage but always gets percentage with this LMS. That is the reason why I gave the advice to test on SCORM cloud.

I'm not sure to understand your question. How did you set up the SCORM? You can report the points or the percentage to most LMS's, some will however not accept scores over 100pts.

But what do you want to know about those 'bonus' points? Should they be added to the total score or not? If they are added that will change several system variables, like the maximum score and the percentage. If they are not added, how will you report them using SCORM? If they are added, you could look at Branch aware: Branch Aware Quiz - Captivate blog

Those who take bonus questions will have a score that takes into account those bonus points.

Hey Lilybiri,

I set up the scorm package to report points but the LMS still gives me a report in percentage. The maximum number of points is 99.

I will take a look at the link and see if that helps.

Thanks

It could be a limitation of your LMS. Try to upload to SCORM cloud, to see if it works?
