Have a trainee do self review

[jaredp99221831]

I am working on a lesson and trying to see if anyone knows how to build a lesson that allows the trainee to see their answers and do self review.

This is the workflow- Slide 1 listen to audio and write a summary

Slide 2- I want the trainee to see their answer alongside the rubric and then answer how they can improve their answer

I am trying to find a way to automate something that is very manual right now. We use Enrich for our LMS and they don't have this functionality so I was wondering if anyone knows a way to do this within Captivate.

My suggestion is as follows and based on a answer having a maximum character count, so the 

learner is not writing a 5000 character response.

Create a scrolling Text Entry Box on the first slide say with a 500 character limit for their 

response - this will be the maximum character count. Assign the TEB a variable, say vAnswer. 

Set the font size to say 12 point.

On the second slide create essentially what looks like three columns.

Create a Text Caption with a reference to the variable inside $$vAnswer$$ the text box in the 

first column. Remember to set the character count to 500 for the variable size and position the 

text alignment to top and left in. Set font to 12 point.

Have a second text caption with the rubric response say in the middle column. Again 12 point 

font to accommodate the answer.

In the third column you could have another TEB where they could type in their revised response. 

Again set to 12 point.

This would be more a learning activity.

If you want to report their answer you to the lms you could set up the same environment for the 

second slide on a Short Answer question slide set as a "Survey". This I believe can hold a 

maximum character count of 256 including spaces.

Give it a try.

To add to David's proposal: you can always replace the TEB by a Scrolling Text interaction, which can be used both for showing and for typing, since it can have an associated variable.
