Redirect on Question Answer - Back if wrong, forward if right

Question

Hey guys,

Im very new to captivate and have been pulled in to help a co-worker develop a captivate file for training due to my technical expertise. That said we have made some pretty good progress with the course design so far.

My question comes from wanting to execute certain actions on certain questions.

For example if the user gets a question on required PPE wrong we want them to be taken back to the PPE slide for review before they attempt to answer again. However, if they get it wrong a second time we want them to move forward with the training regardless. All while recording it for the quiz data at the end.

Does Captivate support this? I am not worried about how complex it might be I would just like to know if this is doable and if so how we would have to go about achieving it.

In my head I think the easest is have it as a one attempt, if failed move to PPE2 (Duplicate of PPE) before going to a duplicate question slide and moving forward.

Hey Lilybiri!That looks like exactly what we want it to as we are not using partially scored MCQ slides. Thank you in advance for taking the time to write out the workflow in a blog post!Blog is published on my personal blog, waiting for moderation in the eLearning community.

Your idea will not be ideal at all. Reason: duplicate the question will lead to incrementing the total score, which will not be correct anymore.

I don't know what a PPE is (I am not a native English speaker). If you mean a content slide somewhere, you could use the remediation feature. However if you use it in the default way, that means that the answer can be edited when navigated back to the question slide, but the learner will get in a loop: only when the answer is correct will it be possible to continue. But it is the perfect way to avoid the question slide to be blocked when returning.

I may find a workaround to get out of the loop, it is not as easy as you think. If you would please explain what the PPE means? Is that indeed one content slide?
