Branching with Multiple Quizzes on Captivate 5

HI,
As part of a training series of modules, I have to have an assessment that on successful completion directs to the next assessment and on failure directs to a list of tips.
The score of the second assessment would need to be separate from the second assessment. Is this possible in Captivate 5?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
For the moment each Captivate file can have only one Quiz, at least if you want to report to a LMS (or other solution) there will be only one Total score.
If you want the two scores to be reported, you'll need at least two files, since each assessment has to be into a file. The conditional navigation can be done with advanced actions.

Multiple Quizzes using Captivate 3

I am currently using Captivate 3 and I had a very large project with multiple quizzes. Captivate was able to go through the first quiz, but every time I hit another quiz, the system would freeze.
I am looking to do multiple quizzes - does anyone know a work around????
Thanks!
Jess

Hi there
A bit of clarification if I may...
Linking to the .CP file is only the right thing to do if you constructed your links using the "Open other project" option. If you used the "Open URL or File" option, you wouldn't link to the .CP file. You would link to the .HTM page.
.CP files are project source files and you should never see them on the server.

Multiple Quizzes with multiple results (in Captivate 6)

Hey guys, Thanks for reading!
Does anyone know if it is possible to do multiple tests with multiple results in captivate 6? or if it is possible to have a pre-test with a quiz, and have separate results for each?
I've been having a play with captivate 6 and when I put a quiz in, it overrides the results slide for my pre-test.
Looking at the results slide master properties I can choose to have results for one of my quizzes but not both (even on separate slides):
It wont even let me insert another slide based on the other result.
I would like to know if multiple quizzes with multiple results is possible in Captivate 6?, or if I am simply doing something wrong?
Thanks!

Sorry for way-late reply...
It's really more how your LMS handles 'courses' and the terminology it uses.
Essentially, most often, a 'SCORM Package' (SCO) is a 'course'. I'd rather call each SCO a 'lesson' as, to me, 'courses' should be setup in the LMS with a series of 'Lessons'.
Regardless of the terminology, each 'SCO' is launched by the LMS and one score can be recorded for it via SCORM.
So if you need multiple final scores recorded, each of those final scores need to be in their own SCO.
A common approach is a Pre-Test SCO (or 'lesson', or 'course', whatever term), a 'Content' SCO perhaps with some interspersed scored interactions, and a Post-Test SCO...all three merged together as a 'course' (or whatever term) within the LMS.
That said, as said, it really all depends on how your LMS handles various SCOs...
Clear as mud?

How can I have multiple quizzes in Captivate 5.5

I would like to do multiple quizzes within one module. Ideally, you would have to pass each quiz before moving on to the next section. Is that possible using Captivate 5.5?

You can have the quizzes in separate files, and call them from a main file. Or you can daisy chain the quizzes (using Open File command). Or you can use the SCORM packager. But I'm not sure if you have access to it, don't remember if it was available with CP in that version or only with the eLearning Suite.

Multiple Quizzes - Captivate 4

Hi,
I was wondering if there is any way to create multiple quizzes in Captivate 4 in the same project file. I have a learning styles survey based quiz set up, and need to collect 3 varibles, one for auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Then I want to display the total for each variable at the end of my quiz, having each question containing 3 answers each for the specific categories/variables. So basically is there a way to have 3 objective ID's, one representing each quiz, then having each specific question adding a specific point to that quiz ID. Then on the last slide display a total point system one for each objective ID, so the user can see which category they fit into. Or is there another way to do this, ie. keeping track of 3 answers instead of just true/false?
Thanks!

Hi,
I don't need it published on an LMS, I just want to show the results in Captivate on another slide, after they take the quiz. For example some of the questions are:
You      are preparing a technical learning module for the next month:
You       make lots of gestures with your hands while you think.
You       draw up a diagram to help you clarify a few key ideas.
You       prepare a detailed plan of the content of the module.
You      are getting ready to write up work for the course you are taking:
You       are surprised by the pile of paper.
You       feel tired before you begin.
You       regret waiting until now to get the work done.
I want to score them as follows:
Question
Visual
Auditory
Kinesthetic
1
B
C
A
2
A
C
B
Then I want a total of each category, at the end of the quiz. Would I be able to do this is Captivate? Thanks!

How can I make multiple quizzes with their own results slides within one project of Captivate 7?

In one Captivate 7 project I want to create multiple quizzes with their own results slide.
Currently I have 5 quizzes that all are linked to 1 results slide.
Is there a way to give each set of questions their own results slide?
(I saw a response to a similar question for Captivate 5 from 2012, but I couldn't get much use out of is and I figured there was an easier way in Captivate 7).
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Lilybiri!
I checked out the link and it's useful, however your other plan might work better for me:
Either you link to separate CP-files that have each their quiz, or you can show intermediate results slides (see link below), but you have to know that the score that will be transmitted to a LMS is the total score of all the quizzes.
But how exactly do I link separate CP-files? Do I have to publish them first and then link them, or can I link them before I publish?
If you could shoot me a link or some advice I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm finishing up a huge project that is due at the end of the day and this quiz issue is one of the last things keeping me from being finished.
Thanks!

Best way to achieve multiple paths with quizzes using Captivate 6?

I’m looking for the best way to achieve multiple paths and quizzes using Captivate 6.
Here is the scenario: The learner watches general slides 1 – 3 and then chooses between Path A, Path B, or both paths combined. If they choose Path A then they watch the A portion only and take the A Quiz only. Same happens for Path B and for the two paths combined. The learner would only have to go one path to complete the course.
What I’m finding is Captivate only has one Quiz results page (even if you create two separate quizzes, it merges them). I was trying to avoid having three separate projects for the same module to keep it simple. I see if I have three separate projects I could use the Multi-SCO Packager to merge them for use on my Moodle LMS. But wait, I don't have the elearning suite, so I don't have access to the Multi-SCO Packager...
My question is: What is the best approach way to accomplish this goal? Any recommendations?

Captivate 6 has Branch Aware quizzing. Turn on that option in Quiz Settings and then your Quiz Results page should only show results for the branch your user visits.

Multiple Pretests in Captivate 7

I'm working on a project that have several sections, after each section there's a pretest (testing knowledge). At the end I have a final exam.
Can I have multiple pretests in Captivate 7, because so far I think it only allows one pretest per project isn't it?

You don't have to add all scores of all questions to the Total score, which will be reported to the LMS. Then the most important system quizzing variables cpInfoPercentage and cpQuizInfoPointsscored will be correct, those are reported. But some other will always take into account all the questions, like the total number of questions. That means that you'll perhaps have to create your own final score slide in the course. For the different knowledge questions you could use advanced actions to keep track of their score.
My approach would often be to create custom questions for the Knowledge questions, using standard objects, variables, widgets/interactions, and advanced (or shared) actions. And keep the default question slides only for the real quiz. Then all the system variables for the Quiz will be correct.
Or you could create only the Quiz as a separate SCORM file, to be launched from the main file, and not report the results of the main file with the knowledge quizzes. But it depends on the LMS if it allows to upload a packaged file instead of a SCO.

Multiple quizzes

Is there a way to have multiple quizzes within 1 captivate project? I want to insert a quiz at the end of each major section of the presentation and if the user fails a section quiz, he'll be redirected to the beginning of that section. In total, I'd like to have 3 separate quizzes for the presentation.

Each Captivate file can have only one Quiz (SCORM requirement I heard). You don't tell which version you are using, nor if you have to report to a LMS. When reporting as a SCO only the total result will be reported, that is the one that is stored in the quizzing system variables.
You can however with advanced actions calculate subtotals and display them to the user. I don't know if this post could help you:

PS: if you have CP6 or later, there is also a Pretest, but that is not what you'll want to use in this case

Hi all!
Just to post the solution to this if anyone ever runs accross this thread...
For some reason i had it bad the first time, don't have time right now to see why but here is what worked for me:
HashMap primaryFile = new HashMap();
primaryFile.put("fileContent", bFile);
primaryFile.put("fileName", uploadedFile.getFilename());
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("primaryFile", primaryFile);
HashMap customDocMetadata = new HashMap();
HashMap [] properties = new HashMap[1];
HashMap customMetadataPropertyRoom = new HashMap();
customMetadataPropertyRoom.put("name", "xRoom");
customMetadataPropertyRoom.put("value", "SOME ROOM");
properties[0] = customMetadataPropertyRoom;
customDocMetadata.put("property", properties);
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("CustomDocMetaData", customDocMetadata);
Basically an unbounded wsdl type is an array of objects (HashMaps), makes sense, i thought i had it like this before, must have messed up somewhere...
Good luck all!

Multiple Quizzes in One Project

I'm developing a project that teaches 4 different standards,
then has a overall assessment quiz at the end of the course.
The problem I'm running into is that the "pre" quiz after
each of the four standards cannot be independently "scored" without
adding to the total score for the project. It's as if you can only
have one quiz total slide per project, and that total slide can't
be duplicated for individual quizzes.
Any suggestions? I guess I have to break up each of the
standards into their own projects, then present the final
assessment as another independent project.
Thanks
JimmyD

Welcome to our community, JimmyD
I think you are spot on. There is currently no way within
Captivate to have multiple quizzes in the same project. I'm not
even sure if that would be possible from a technical standpoint.
But I've seen a few folks ask about it here. Because of that, I
would strongly encourage you and anyone else that sees a need for
this capability to alert the Captivate Development team by
completing a Wish Form.

TFS 2010 Branching - Is it possible to create a child branch with latest version of specific code alone from parent branch?

Hi,
QUERY:
I've 'MAIN' code base as parent branch.
From 'MAIN' parent branch, I need to create multiple child 'Development' branches (Dev1, Dev2,etc..) for consecutive releases.
I don't want Child branch creating with entire code from Parent branch. i.e Each DEVELOPMENT branch should not be a full branch of MAIN.
Is it possible to create child branches with specific code from Parent.
For example:
MAIN -> Parent branch contain Project1, Project2,...........Project10.
DEV1 -> Child branch which contains Project2 and Project3 alone.
DEV2 -> Child branch which contains Project2, Project5, Project6, Project7, Project8 alone.
NOTE:
I'm trying to create a 'Basic branching Plan' to maintain the Source Code in TFS, for consecutive release with concurrent development.
i.e
MAIN <--- FI & RI -----> Dev1, Dev2, Dev3
MAIN <------- RI alone ---| Release1, Release2, Release3
I'm new to TFS, please advice for the above mentioned branching specific query.
Also, if possible, please suggest me the best branching strategy according to my need.
Regards,
Riswan Babu

Hi Riswan,
It's unavailable to branch a folder or team project partly, it always copying the same source code from its parent when you create a branch in your team project. For you requirement, you might try the methods below to see if it works for you:
1. Since the DEV1 and DEV2 have different, you can have two folders(like MAIN) in your team project and each folder include the projects/solutions you need. No need to create two branches that include different projects
2. Create two branches from Main, and delete the additional projects that you want to keep. Then develop with the branches separately.
3. Or create the branches from Main but keep all the content, just modify the projects you need in each branch. The difference will merge back in root branch if you need to merge back finally.
For release, you can create sub-branches from the two branches you created as you requirement. And you can check the links below for more information about branching and merging:

How to isolate error with a record/segment in IDOC with multiple records

I have an IDOC with multiple records/segments (typically 1000 records/segments). Sometime XI can not process the IDOC because of some control characters in data.
1. How can I pre-processed the IDOC to remove those control characters?
Can I use XPATH expression/Java class to do it? How can I configure the XPATH expression/Java class in XI to pre-process the file?
2. Until I have answer to 1st question. I would like to find out the error is exactly for which record? What configuration can I do in XI to isolate the error is with which record/segment in IDOC?
Thanks in advance.

Split the IDoc.
with in the UDF, after the validations if every thing fine, pass as successful records to success_MT and pass it to target system using Branching in BPM.
if errors found in the record, then store the error records in Hash table with in UDF, get the IDoc number, frame as a string and raise alert.
U have to do this in the context of IDoc.
If U wanna get the IDoc Number, Segment Name and field name for every failure, U can pass the expected error field name as constant to UDF, frame the sentence in the UDF like -> <b>IDoc 1234321 segment SEG001 field FLD03 has a special character *</b>.
If U wanna pass this string to source/target, U can do in error messages branch in BPM.
U must use BPM for splitting the IDoc, since it is multi-mapping.

Dynamic routing for a Business Service with multiple operations

I have two business services with multiple operations. Business service A (bsA) has operations OpA1 and OpA2. Business service B (bsB) has operations OpB1 and OpB2.
Depending on incoming Proxy message and operation, I have to do one of the following
1. If someValue = A and operation= Op1 then invoke operation opA1 of bsA
2. If someValue = B and operation= Op1 then invoke operation opB1 of bsB
3. If someValue = C and operation= Op1 then invoke operation opA1 of bsA AND* operation opB1 of bsB and return aggregate data of both invocations
1. If someValue = A and operation= Op2 then invoke operation opA2 of bsA
2. If someValue = B and operation= Op2 then invoke operation opB2 of bsB
3. If someValue = C and operation= Op2 then invoke operation opA2 of bsA AND* operation opB2 of bsB and return aggregate data of both invocations
Using a dynamic route node or dynamic routing options, I am able to achieve cases 1, 2, 4, and 5.
But for cases 3 & 6, I can not use a route node. When I use a Service call out instead, then I am forced to create a Operational branch but that does not seem like the best design since for every new operation added to the business services, I have to add a new branch to the Operational branch and redo all the functionality for that branch.
Basically, I am looking to achieve the functionality of the Route node ( no need to specify the operation ).
Any thoughts/ideas on what the best design would be?
thanks

For cases 3 & 6, why don't you route to another proxy service where you can simple do two service callouts, merge output data somehow and return them to the first proxy?
If you look for "special route feature", that could possibly call two services for a single message, I'm afraid you won't succeed.
