Question

Review tutorial while taking quiz

Hello, I am working in Captivate 7.0 and have ten quiz slides at the end of my tutorial.  I have a table of contents that shows the various topics in the tutorial.  While a user is taking an assessment, I would like them to be able to refer back to various content slides of the tutorials to refresh their memories as they submit their answers.  This is the sequence of events I would like to enable:

User views the tutorial

User gets to the quiz slides and needs to refer back to the tutorial content slides for help

The user clicks on the appropriate table of content topic to get the information

The user then clicks on "Assessment (Quiz)" in the table of contents to return to the question they are on

The user submits their answer

The next quiz slide comes up

The user needs to refer back to the tutorial content slides for help

The user clicks the appropriate table of content topic to get the information

The user then clicks on "Assessment (Quiz)" in the table of contents to return to the question they are on

The user submits their answer

The next quiz slide come up

and so on....

The way my tutorial is working now is if a user gets to the quiz slide and clicks on a table of content topic to view the tutorial slides for help, the system acts as if the user did not answer the question and records it as unanswered or wrong.  The quiz then automatically moves to the next quiz slide.  The user is not able to access the tutorial content and answer the quiz questions.

Do you have a solution for this?

Thanks,

Sarah

    You need the feature 'remediation', and I don't think it will be possible with navigation by the TOC. Remediation means that you can get back to a content slide (use a normal button) but on that content slide the 'Next' button will have a double function: when the content slide is visited normally (before the quiz) it acts as a Next button. But you'll have to attach the action 'Return to Quiz' to that Next button. That action will only be executed when the content slide is visited coming from a quiz slide. And the user will be able to change his answer when getting back to the question slide. But it is not possible to attach that special action to a TOC topic, hence my suspicion that this will not work with TOC-navigation. I would even recommend to lock the TOC during the quiz.

    Thank you, Lilybiri.  I don't have "Next" buttons on my content slides so I am not sure I follow you.  I did disable the "allow backward movement" because when the Back button was displayed, I found that users could move back in the quiz but then the Submit button was no longer available.  Therefore, I disabled the "allow backward movement" feature.  Does this impact the ability to review the content slides?

    I think I may have figured it out.  I checked the "allow backward movement" box but when asked if I want to show the "Back" button on all quiz slides, I said no.  (I don't want the Back buttons because I found when the Back buttons are displayed, users can move back in the quiz but then the Submit button is no longer available.)  With "allow backward movement" but no Back buttons, I am able to answer a question, move to the next question, click the table of contents topic to research the content, click on "Assessments (Quizzes)" in my table of contents to return to the quiz.  My answer to the first question is still there and I can move to the second question which I researched.  This appears to work.  I am going to publish and test.  If I am doing something wrong, please tell me! Thanks, Sarah
