Track a learners response to one button

Can anyone help? I need to track (report to LMS) users that answer a final question and submit 'no'. It is the only question in the deck. Do I need to do it as a quiz or will interactive buttons work? What do I need to add so it reports back to LMS? 
thanks

Thanks again, this is so helpful.

I have made the amendments in the reporting preferences and notice that it will report as 'complete' when all slides have been viewed. Do you know if there is a way that the course can be marked as 'in progress' if they click the 'No' button and 'complete' if they click the 'Yes' button, or does it need to be quantitative with scoring as the identifier? 


That changes the situation of course. You should have to invert the scores for the buttons in that case:

  • Give a score to the Yes button
  • Do not give a score to the No button

 

Change the Quiz Preferences, Complete criterion and choose Quiz is Passed. Set the pass score to 100%. In that case completion will only be marked when the Yes button is clicked.

Interactive objects like buttons can be scored. That will probably be the easiest solution. Give a different score to the two buttons (Yes, No) and set Quiz Reporting up. You'll see from the score which answer has been chosen. Of course you can also add a T/F question if you prefer.

Thank you for this, really helpful. Quick q - does it mean that I have to create the page as a quiz page, it can't be a normal page. Quite new to Captivate so a bit of a novice. I need the buttons to look like the rest of the preceding pages so there is continuity. So it basically looks like this...

Open the Properties panel for the No button, go to the Actions tab and at the bottom check the option 'Reporting'. You'll see a default score of 1p, but I would recommend to increase that score so that it is very apparent in the total score reported to the LMS. No action needs to be triggered by the buttons Yes and No, and it is not really necessary in this case to check Reporting for the Yes button, it doesn't need a score. You would see in the total score if the No button has been pressed or not.

 

You could use a T/F question but it would need some tweaking of the layout of the quiz slide. It would have the advantage that it may appear also more detailed, depending on the LMS reports.

 

You didn't tell if you have already quiz slides? Because the score of the button will be added to the total score of the project. You can see all scores in the Advanced Interaction panel (F9).. This blog post may clarify:
