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...

Hi again. Thanks for helping me last time, I wondered if you could work your magic again. The course is not marking as complete for some reason. Yes button has points and is part of the quiz reporting - no and submit are mot included in the reporting. Basically I want the course to mark as complete when the yes button is clicked and in progress if the no button is clicked. I cannot get this to work. Screen grabs of the spec attached - where am i going wrong? Any help would be gratefully received. Thank you in advance.


You need to give more information here in order for us to help you.

 

Are these buttons located on the Quiz Results slide or some other slide?

 

If clicking the Yes button is meant to give the learner a passing score then that should be the only one of these buttons that has a score assigned to it.  The No and Submit buttons should have no score.  (Come to think of it, why do you need a submit button anyway.  Just Yes or No should be sufficient.) 

 

Clicking Yes or No should mean the learner lands at the Quiz Result slide where they will be informed about whether or not they passed or failed.  If they did not pass (ie. did not click Yes) then you need to give them the opportunity to try again.  But currently, although you have allowed Infinite attempts in your Quiz Settings you have not activated the Retake Quiz.  That means the learner has no way to go back and correct the mistake.  Closing the module in this condition would mean their course module would likely be marked as Failed in the LMS rather than In Progress.  In Progress means they have not as yet completed their module.
