Quiz feedback slides

I would like to include feedback slides with my current quiz slides but do not see a feature that allows me to do this. If the viewer gets the question wrong on the quiz I would like a feedback slide or just feedback to pop up with more information. How do I do this?

Hello and welcome,
You can use the Failure captions, they can be totally customized, to provide feedback. If you allow multiple attempts on question level, you can even have up til 3 Failure levels, and each Failure caption can be different.
For MCQ slides with one possible correct answer, you can also use Advanced Answer options to provide different feedback for each wrong answer. You get access to that Advanced Answer feature in the Properties panel (not in the Quiz Properties panel, reason why I always advice using the Quizzing workspace) when you select one of the answers.

Customised menu slide and customised quiz feedback slide

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone can help point me in the right direction as to how I can use Advanced Actions/Variables to produce two things, a menu slide that shows a tick when a section is complete, and a single quiz feedback slide that shows a summary of questions with correct/incorrect.
Customised Menu Slide
I'm trying to build a menu so that a learner can go into any unit in any order. When they finish the slides in that unit, they are returned to the Menu slide and a tick appears against that unit. There is an example below to give you the idea.
Quiz Feedback Slide
I'm also trying to build a quiz feedback slide to let learners know which questions they have gotten wrong in a quiz. I don't want to use the Quiz Review function as that shows me the questions and wrong answers. I would just like a summary slide, as in the example below.
For the course menu, I'm using some helpful posts from Lilybiri and trying to adjust her tutorial on customized course menu at http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/855/cpsid_85530.html to show the ticks instead of hiding the unit links. I'm not sure where to start with the quiz feedback slide.
I'm hoping that someone with a bit more experience of advanced actions/variables will be able to step in here and let me know if i'm going in the right direction with this.
many thanks in advance,
Loraine

Hey Lilybiri, sorry to revive this thread, but I would like to do this but with question pools? Can that be done? If yes, how...?
My issue with a little more detail: We are replacing the ageing, proprietary content creation solution of our LMS supplier with Captivate. The main purpose of our LMS is not providing learning-courses but testing our users with quizzes.
We are required (strictly governmentally regulated business) to train and quiz our employees on certain topics. So the main functionality used of Captivate, Version 6 btw, is the quizzing functionality. We went for Captivate because it's got the question pool ability which by the newest prescription we are required to deploy in our 2013 line of employee certification tests/quizzes.
After passing a quiz, the old solution gave a very nice overview of the answers given and the correctness of those (see screenshot attached). I'd like to replicate this to a certain degree with Captivate. Notice the screenshot by the way, the old solution got partial scoring which Captivate can also do, unfortunately not when using question pools. Anyway, not the issue here, the issue is the result slide. I have been asked to implement a result slide, similar to the old solution, where all the answers are listed and also a hint if the answer given was correct or wrong (as partially correct does not apply anymore, now that we are using question pools) because the user has then jump to that slide and review and discuss it with the teacher/test supervisor of that day.
We have a total of ~60 questions in 6 pools. 25 get picked, at least 3 out of every pool, smallest pool has 6 questions. So how can I track a) which question has been picked and displayed to the user b) as which slide number/at which position and c) which answer was given, in this highly shuffled, dynamically created environment? It's not like I can make a result slide with 60 lines and mark each line as either unseen, correct or wrong and maintain 60x3 variables during the quiz. Any ideas?
Of course, the user could just review the whole quiz and quickly skip all questions answered correctly and discuss the ones the user failed. But this somehow doesn't seem right and unprofessional, especially since the old solution could do that since years. At least a hint which questions the user got wrong would be the minimum expected...
Thanks in advance.

When the user fail the question, I will like to jump to a "feedback" slide before proceeding to next quiz. Is that possible and how do i get it?

Quiz Score Slide - Review Questions

Hi all,
I have put a number of discussions now and still can't seem to get this to work.
Once a user has completed the quiz and got to the quiz score slide to find out if they have passed or failed - for both I would like them to be able to 'review answers'. I know there is a review quiz but this just tells them what they got wrong or right and not why.
I have searched on Captivate and online to figure out how to make this work. I would like the user to be able to go through each slide and when there is a question they got wrong, there is an explanation for them.
Is this possible and how do I do it?
Thanks

Hi there,
You can have a slide as an explanation slide next to your quiz slides. You can use a conditional advanced action under On Enter property of the explanation slide. With the help of a variable called cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored, you will check whether the last answer was correct or not and have the explanation slide show/hide accordingly. For example, if each question in your project has 10 points associated. The variable will check whether the last question slide scored points were equal to 10, if yes then jump to next question slide and if no then go to the explanation slide.
Here is how it will look in the advanced action window:
Where Slide 4 is the next question slide and Slide 3 is the explanation slide.
Hope this helps!
Thanks!

How do I stop background fading on Quiz Results slide

Hi
I'm using Captivate 6 and having a whole heap of problems creating a quiz using question pools. First one - how do I stop the background fading away on the Quiz results slide? The background is from a master slide and the results slide has the settings in the screenshot attached
I've tried moving changing the length on the timeline, but this then makes the Continue button unclickable for ages. The background fades once it is clickable in Preview mode (see screenshot below)

Hello,
Please go that Master Slide and click on that image and under Properties Inspector check the "Transition" option
It should not be "Fade In" or "Fade Out", it should be "No Transition" :
Hope this helps !!
Thanks,
Vikram

Continue Button on Quiz Results Slide NOT Working Properly

I'm experiencing a functionality issue with the "Continue"
button on the Quiz Results slide:
Situation 1: After initially completing the quiz, I need to
click the "Continue" button on the Quiz Results slide only once to
advance to the next (and last) slide in the quiz movie. This is
fine & works as I would expect.
Situation 2: After initially completing the quiz, if instead
I choose to review the quiz, later when I get to the Quiz Results
slide, I need to click the "Continue" button TWICE to advance to
the next (and last) slide in the quiz movie. This does NOT work as
I would expect.
Any idea why only 1 click is needed in the Situation 1 while
2 clicks are needed in Situation 2? Any way to fix Situation 2 so
that only 1 click is needed?
Thanks much!

CapManZ,
Whether the Continue button on the Quiz Results slide
requires one or two clicks is mysterious indeed. See
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=67&catid=464&threadid =1302278
for another discussion about its misbehavor.
Actually, the number of clicks required depends on how long
you wait after the Quiz Results slide appears, prior to clicking
the Continue button. In your situation 1 you probably answered
questions rather than using the skip button, so you viewed the
question slides for a while prior to arriving at results. In your
situation 2 you probably used the Skip button to zip through the
slides to return to the results screen. Try this. In situation 2,
when you get to the Quiz Results slide, instead of clicking the
Continue button, go get a cuppa joe and then see if a single click
will work. If so please let me know.
I've experimented with a Captivate 2 multiple choice quiz in
a slide show that contained only 10 questions and the Results
slide. I added a text caption with fade in and fade out enabled
(the default) to the Results slide. I found that after the caption
fades in, one click on the continue button advances the slide. So I
used the caption's appearance to help measure the timing.
In the tests below I skipped as rapidly as possible, pausing
at various slides to see how it affected the single click
threshold.
Skip all slides: 28 sec
View slide 1 for 60 sec and then skip: 28 sec
Skip to slide 5, pause 30 sec, and then skip: 13 sec
Skip to slide 10, pause 30 sec, and then skip: 2-3 sec
Answer each slide (took more than 30 sec): 2-3 sec
Skip all slides, click Continue as fast as possible: 2-3 sec
I also reduced the number of question slides in the quiz and
skipped all slides.
7 questions: 18 sec
3 questions: 7 sec
I believe the threshold value (the duration required before
clicking the Continue button advances to the next slide) is
composed of two durations which add together to determine the
threshold. The Result's slide's timeline probably sets the
threshold's lower limit. Clicks prior to 3 seconds are ignored.
Time per slide and number of slides left to go sets the upper limit
for the threshold. The slower the movement, the lower the
threshold.
Several conclusions:
This probably isn't a situation in which the first click is
ignored. Instead the first click reduces the threshold's value to
the lower limit. The second click would then typically occur after
3 additional seconds, particularly if the user is surprised that
the first click didn't work and pauses slightly. A very fast
additional click on the Continue button is ignored as well.
Long quizzes will cause more complaints about the issue
because of what you experienced. It typically takes longer to
answer the quiz than review it.
Perhaps there's a workaround that would alert the user that
the Continue button is ready for clicking. I'm thinking that since
the text caption fade-in coincides with being ready to continue, an
image or the like might do the trick. Any suggestions out there?
Humm, a better alternative might be to show some images of
snacks on the results slide background. Through suggestive selling,
the user realizes it's time for a break and clicks Continue after
returning with that cuppa joe. And the sound you hear? It's the
Captivate developers giggling if they read my conclusions. Too bad
they're mum, since some real info might make it easier to make
Captivate behave. Ah well.

Can I delete Quiz Results slide in CP7?

Hi
I am using CP 7.0.1.237. I have read that this cannot be done in CP6.
Is there a way to delete the Quiz Results slide in CP7 atleast? I know I can hide it. But I prefer deleting.
Sreekanth

No, it will always be hidden, unless you delete all the question slides, that is the only situation in which you can delete the score slide. Why bother about that? If you publish, hidden slides are not included in the published version.

I want to add power point content to my quiz page (slide).

I want to add power point content to my quiz page (slide).
I use CP7

Bringing in a PPT slide usually means the content ends up as a fixed graphic background anyway. So why not just group the objects on your PPT slide, right click and turn them into a PNG graphic, and then insert that PNG into your quiz slide?

Continue button on Quiz Results Slide not working Captivate 7

I have the Quiz Settings set to Continue when the user passes the quiz. However, when the user clicks the Continue button on the Quiz Results Slide, nothing happens. I want the user to be able to continue to the next (and final!) slide in the project. The timing for the Quiz Results slide is set to be active for 7 seconds. Umm, suggestions for a fix? Thanks. This problem has been driving me nuts since I'm so close to finishing!

I changed the timing on the results slide back down to being active for 1.5 seconds so that's what will show up in the screen shot below. I also included a screen shot for the Pass/Fail settings. Thanks.

CP5: Scoring and Quiz Result Slides for Selected Questions

Hello World,
I am trying to create a course that has several "knowledge checks" that don't need to be scored or tracked, and then a 10 question quiz at the end that needs to be scored and tracked.
Does anyone know of a way to separate those two elements so that the Quiz Results slide does not include any of my "knowledge check" data and just gives the user details of the 10 question quiz? I would also like to use the progress bar, but only for the final 10 questions.
Alternatively, if the quiz result screen separated out the results of the knowledge checks from the quiz, that would work as well.
Thanks,
Graham

Hello,
If you use the Question slides that come with Captivate, all the slides will be added to the total score because you can only have one Quiz in a CP-file.
Some ideas: you could set the score of the first (not te be tracked) slides to 0, or if possible change the questions from scored to survey (will not be scored).
If by Progress you mean the indication 'Question X of Y', there you will need to make your own counters, with user variables and advanced actions. If you want to have total control of your question slides you could create the first bunch of questions yourself and only use the default Question slides for the real last Quiz. Just published a blog post today with some links to articles about customizing Quizzes. Feel free to check it:

Custom success and failure messages on quiz results slide

I'm trying to create a custom success and failure message on the quiz results slide, using certain colours in the text caption to reflect our company's brand. So I've added an advanced action on entering the slide so that if the quiz percentage is 80% or more, the success message shows, and the failure message hides. It seems that this should work, but for some reason, only the failure message displays, regardless of whether I fail or pass. Has anyone else tried this with any success?
Thanks for your help!

I've changed the retake and continue buttons to image buttons, then added my custom success and failure captions which I've named 'fail_f' and 'pass_f':
And here is my advanced action on entering the quiz results slide:
The hide-button, is a white rectangle that I added so that I could place it over the retake button if they passed the quiz successfully.

Adobe Presenter Quiz Feedback

Wondering if anyone knows why my quiz feedback (using Adobe
Presenter 7.02 and PowerPoint 2007) is blurry after publishing.
Looks good prior to publishing and my question text, etc stays
clear? Help?

You would need to create the questions in Captivate. The questions don't translate across the products.

Clickable links in Quiz Feedback

Is there a way to add Clickable links in Quiz Feedback??

Hi Gyanendra,
I think the only way you could do that would be to place a click box over the top of your Success or Failure captions and uncheck the option Pause project until user clicks, that way you then just set the On success menu to Open URL or File.
I totally agree that you should be able to include links in captions, as well as *images, this is something I have tried to get implemented in Adobe Captivate for years now.
If you would like to add your support, then please submit this as a feature request using the web address I have included below.
Adobe Captivate Feature Request/Bug Report Form
* You can get around the image issue by simply creating your own text captions and including the graphic in the custom caption design.
Best - Mark

Continue button on Quiz Result slide not working

Hi,
I really hope there's something easy I'm missing here. I've
created a quiz with 25 questions. I don't have it reporting to an
LMS, but I do have a quiz results slide. If the student gets a
passing grade, I've set the Continue button to go to the next slide
(where they get a congrats message and can print a certificate).
I'm publishing it as an SWF file. When I take the quiz and pass it,
the Continue button doesn't work. The way it is now, students are
stuck at the end of the quiz. Any ideas?

Hi J
Sorry that didn't seem to work for you. Hopefully someone
else will see it and maybe chime in with a suggestion.
Until that happens, you (as well as anyone else seeing this
behavior) should report it to Adobe as a bug.

Is there a way to change the formulas for the fields of the Quiz Results slide?

I see the placeholders for the fields on the Quiz Results Slide (Number of Questions = {total-questions}). Is there a way to view and change those calculations?

You can select which variables appear on the Quiz Results slide, but you cannot really change the calculations used by Captivate under the hood.
Depending on what you're trying to achieve, you might be able to insert your own captions reading off the same variables and use Advanced Actions and Expressions to cook up different results. But it depends very much on what you want to do and whether or not the variables are exposed, and whether or not the limited Expressions available will allow the math.
