Hi Donnied,
First off, apologies for the *very* late response; I just
realized the date stamp on this one, but nevertheless I'm going to
throw my 2 cents in here...
Before I start, let me ask you this: when you set up the
course(s) and configured the settings for results, what options did
you set? Here's why I ask:
Although there are a variety of report data sets that can be
exported from a viewed presentation, when it comes to capturing
user interactivity
without the need to weigh responses (this is commonly
referred to as a "knowledge check"--meaning that the learner is
tested on some aspect of comprehension without really scoring the
result) what we've done in the past is set the report data to
"report slide views only". This way, a couple of things are
tracked:
1. The learner's entry / exit points in a presentation
2. Answers to question slides, and even if, as Jim suggested,
they're set to a passing score of 0, there will be no indication of
"failure" to the learner...more on this in a moment...
Caveat: we've found that the "slide view completion" only
really makes sense if its set to 100%. Anything less than that is
kind of a waste. Net effect here is that IF the learner bails on a
presentation half-way through, that gets reported back to the LMS
as an "incomplete". Admininstration loves that because they can
tally who has gone through a presentation and can follow up with
those who haven't.
As far as learners receiving messages of "failing" a
presentation, it might also make sense to forget using the "show
score at end of quiz" feature, especially if the pass/fail option
is set to 0 anyway.
One thing to keep in mind with "questions" that are available
within PowerPoint directly: some, if not all, are dependant upon
Microsoft's internal VBasic code base and Active X controls.
Especially in cases where you could use ppt's action buttons, when
publishing, they simply won't work.
