Configuring a Multiple Choice interaction
In a Multiple Choice interaction the user responds to a question with multiple answers in which one or several answers can be correct.
To configure a Multiple Choice interaction:
1 |
If you are not using a quiz template, place the learning interaction on the Stage. If you are using a quiz template, select the frame on the Interactions layer that contains the Multiple Choice interaction. (Frame 4, if you have not added or removed keyframes.) |
2 |
Break the movie clip apart (Modify > Break Apart), display the Component Parameters panel, and then type the interaction ID and the question. See Configuring a Learning Interaction component. |
3 |
Type the possible responses for the interaction (A-E). |
Note: You do not need to provide five responses. You can delete a response, but be sure to replace it or move any following responses up to the previous text box, if necessary, so that there are no blank text boxes between responses. |
|
4 |
Select or deselect the Correct option to specify whether each response is considered correct or incorrect. You may have multiple correct answers. |
Adding and removing multiple choice distractors
You can include from one to eight distractors (choices) in a Multiple Choice learning interaction. You can change the default number of six distractors by adding additional distractors or deleting existing distrators.
To add a multiple choice distractor:
1 |
Select the frame with the Multiple Choice learning interaction in the Timeline. |
2 |
Open the Flash UI Components folder in the Library panel (Window > Library) and drag a CheckBox component to the Stage. |
3 |
In the Property inspector, name the instance. See Naming and registering graphic distractors. |
4 |
Add the instance name to the Component Parameters panel for the multiple choice distractor. |
The component will do all the rest of the work for you at runtime. |
To remove a multiple choice distractor:
1 |
Select the CheckBox instance that you want to remove, and delete it from the Stage. |
2 |
Select the Multiple Choice component (to the left of the Stage if you're using a quiz template), then display the Component Parameters panel (Window > Components). |
3 |
Remove the deleted object's instance name from the list in the Component Parameters panel. |
Note: If you register distractors for the Multiple Choice component that do not exist on the Stage, a Trace Output error message will appear when you test the movie. |
