Question

Quiz Preference setting wrong or LMS issue?

Hi there, 

 

My client has asked me to change the quiz requirements so the user doesn't have to get all answers right to 'pass'. They want the user to at least get 7 out of 9 questions right to then be able to finish it off and be considered complete. 

* All questions have 2 trys to get correct, if not right the second time, the next slide will appear. If total score is below 7 correct answers, the user must retake the quiz *

I've played around with multiple different quiz preference options for this but everytime i upload it to the LMS they use, it doesn't recognise that the course is complete if all questions aren't answered correctly. 

For example: 

If all questions are answered correctly,  the LMS will recognise the score of 100% and says 'complete'. 

If 1 or 2 answers are wrong, it will become a score of 89% (or whatever the outcome is) and will say 'still in process' (as if the course haven't been completed in full yet). 

I'm unsure if it may be the LMS not registering a 70 or 80% as a pass, or if my settings arent set up right. 

 

Attached is a few photos of context (keep in mind I've edited and changed quiz preference settings MANY times so might not be at par during these screenshots)

From the screenshots I suspect that you  are not using the new release 12, but an older one. However I would like to see the exact version number, which you find under Help, About Captivate.

To start with: do not use the Required field you have chosen, it uses to cause problems. Go back to 'Optional', you can require the pass using the other settings. You didn't make the Skip button and navigation buttons available and the playbar is hidden. That means that the learner needs to answer all questions.

Secondly: I don't like the 'Jump to ....' action when Quiz is Failed. Where is that slide? It is important to know that the data are sent to the LMS at the last frame of the score slide after clicking the Continue button.  For that reason it is recommended to have at least one slide after the score slide.

Third:  I hope you didn't customize the default score slide too much (there is no screenshot). You should never delete embedded objects, you can deactivate them if that possibility is present. The Continue button controls the pausing point and has all the embedded functionality.

I have changed the Required field as suggested. 

The 'jump to' was set up to go bak to a slide at the begining of the quiz for the user to retake. I have taken that away and changed to Continue. 

 

 

This is the Quiz Results page and then I  have a 'end of course' slide after this, where the user can click Finish and it quits the course. So there is definatly a slide after the score slide. 

 

I feel as if the LMS isn't taking 7 correct answers as a 'pass' but I'm not sure why.
