Math Training - how setting the boxes for the written answers?
Hi there,
hope, you can help me with this - I guess - easy question: How do I create fields, where a correct answer is to be given?
Precisely: I am building an math training for my child. So I s...
You indicate the correct answer to a Freeform question in Form View.
-
- You can indicate multiple correct answers (for example: 2, 2.0). This allows for spelling variations or other minor differences that might be acceptable.
- The acceptable answers all apply to the same text-entry field.
- In other words, a Freeform Text Entry question (as well as a standard fill-in-the-blank question) can only score one text-entry field on the slide.
Thus, this is not going to help with the slides you set up. If you want to use the built-in scoring, you'll need to put only one equation on each slide.
If you want to keep 10 questions on each slide, you will need to use triggers that check the value of each variable to determine if it is correct or not. For example:
- Add a layer for showing feedback.
- Next to each answer, add a "score" shape that has custom states to indicate Correct (e.g., a checkmark) or Incorrect (e.g., an X). Give those objects an initial state of Hidden.
- For each answer, add a trigger that changes the state of the corresponding "score" shape to Correct with the condition that the value in that answer field equals the correct number. Add an "Else" to those triggers that changes the state to Incorrect.
The triggers will end up looking something like this:
Note: All of this will be much easier if you take the name to give all objects and variables meaningful names.
