Showing Quiz Results

Hello. I am a fairly green Captivate user so please bear with me.

I created a quiz and did not utilise the quiz templates. I used shapes as buttons and assigned a score. Is it possible to show the correct answers when users review the quiz? Either highlighting the correct answer (border shape) or by making a check mark (image) visible.

Thanks!

Here is a hack that I use. It's late, but the hack does save you from other workarounds. Note, this is for CP8. Haven't tried it in newer versions.:

  1. Make your project as you normally do, including the custom question slides
  2. Add a quiz slide after you have prepared your entire project and the results page will be added to the project automatically by the software program
  3. Then just delete the quiz slide inserted. Captivate does not remove the results slide -  meaning you now have your custom slides and the default results slide

Sorry but that is unnecessary cumbersom/ Once you have at least one scored object, need not be a quiz slide, in the project, you can add the Results Slide from Quiz Preferences. No need at all to add a quiz slide.

I always prefer KISS solutions.

Does anyone on this thread know if you can display which answers the learner got incorrect, without showing them the correct answer?

Lilybiri​ possibly?

Not out of the box, sorry. You'll have to create that Review mode yourself, if you want it. That means using advanced or shared actions and variables.


Why did you not use the quizzing master slides? Those slides have a lot of functionality built in, one of them being that automatic Review mode when using the review button on the Score slide.

Thank you Lilybiri. I was having trouble editing the quiz masters so I thought of just creating a custom quiz.

"That means using advanced or shared actions and variables."

> How does this work please?

Also how can I shuffle the questions and/or the answers please.

Thank you and I appreciate your sentiments. I did not realise it was that advanced.

"Shuffling answers is another feature which you get free with default quiz slides"

>> Can I shuffle the questions too?


Not per se.  But you can insert quiz question slides into one or more Question Pools and then insert Random Quiz slides in your project that draw from specific pools.  If you have ten quiz slides in the same pool and ten Random Quiz slides that all draw from the same pool then the order of quiz questions encountered by the learner will be randomised when the module is launched.  But after that point, the questions remain in that order for the duration of the learner's session.
