Evaluating Question with More than One Choice for Correct Answer
May 2, 2009 12:00 AM
Hello,
We have an activity type that's basically a multiple response multiple choice question. In other words, if there are 4 choices (A, B, C, D) it's possible that they have to select B and C to get it right. I know Lectora allows this in the multiple choice question wizard just by checking the 'Correct answer requires more than once choice' option. However, in our courses, we play a red X image next to the selected answers the student got wrong. Is there a way to evaluate each of those check boxes and hide/show the red X images if they got it wrong?
The only thing I can think of is setting a variable for 'Correct Answers' (I.e. B, C) and then on select of the check box modify another variable 'Selected') to contain the selected option (A, B, C, or D). Then on submit of the question compare the two variables. However, there's no way to toggle the onselect option. So if they check it, it would modify the variable, but if they unchecked it, it wouldn't.
Any ideas are appreciated...
Thanks,
