Putting a time limit on each question in a test
June 15, 2009 12:00 AM
You don't even need to put the action on a button to move on to the next page. You can put the action directly on the page itself. In fact, you could put it on the section or chapter itself to avoid duplication.
Although, I would think that having the test move on so suddenly can be jarring to the learner. I would suggest a hidden text box on the section/chapter level that says, "You must answer in 15 seconds, or this question will be marked incomplete."
Then on the section/chapter level, add this action:On Show - Show Warning Text - Delay: 45 seconds
And on the Warning Text, add this action:On Show - Goto Next Page - Delay: 15 seconds
I doubt there will be any timing issues, but I think this is better than having a 45-second delay and a 60-second delay that are independent of each other.
