Fill in the Blank Question

Hi

Does anyone know if there is a way to make several answers correct on this kind of question?

I'm using Adobe Captivate 6 and here is a screenshot of the question:

The users only see the letter Ls and have to type in the rest of the text.  I want the question to be marked correct regardless of what order they type the words in but currently this is only correct if they also get the correct order so if someone types in Libraries last it is marked as wrong.  Does anyone have any ideas of the best way to put this question so they have to give the three features, they are given a clue but don't have to get them in the right order?

Your help is greatly appreciated

Hello,

You could add the three possibilities to each word, and the question will be marked as correct if they answer the three words, not depending on sequence.


However: if the learner has entered twice or three times the same (correct) word, it will also be marked as correct. And that is certainly not what you want. I'm afraid that you'll need advanced actions to check that the entries are different. And that means mostly that you'll have to create a custom question slides, using TEB's. Did you already use advanced actions?

Thank you Lilybiri - I think I'm going to go with the three possibilities.  The length of the first word is a clue that it should be the libraries one and then this allows them to get the other two in the wrong order (I even did this ) so now they do get a correct mark even if they are in the wrong order.

I really appreciate you resolving this for me so quickly
