Hi there,

I am new to Captivate 2019. Can anyone tell me or show me how I can have content slides and quiz slides interacting with each other on one single project?

I am creating an e-learning course for my company where I have intro slides with video the explains what the course entails.  Then we move on the start a series of questions that each should dovetail (branch out) to different slides that might be another content/video or another set of questions depending on the learner’s answer. I have laid out all the questions and their respective branching answers on a word document and I am coping and pasting them onto Captivate.

The problem I am having is that I successfully create the content slides and some of the quiz on a single project but I cannot mix/move them around.
For instance, I have an intro and then user/learner will click next and start the quiz or set of questions. If he chooses option “1” out of 8 and clicks submit, he or she should to to another video slide that should take him or her to a different kind of assessment. At the same time, if user/learner chooses option “2”, he or she should see a different set of questions. Most of the questions are also “yes and no” based and depending which one is chosen, it should branch out to a complete different direction.
I just cannot figure that out yet. this is my third day working on Captivate and I feel like I am wrestling it.

What am I doing wrong? Is there any setting that I am missing? I am not grading user’s/learner’s scores. I am simply using the questions for self reflection/actualization.

If someone can shine a light on this it would be much appreciated.

Regards,
PCEnki

You would have saved a lot of time if you took appropriate training. I never understand why such a multi-features application as Captivate is supposed to be used without any training;. But that is off topic.

One tip: never copy/paste from Word directly, but export it to a non-formatted txt file. MS ids famous for its bad styling codes. Captivate is using object styles and starting from unformatted text is a much better idea. Moreover: start by customizing or creating a theme before creating slides.

For Branching where assessment is included you have to activate the feature (Branch aware’ in the Quiz Preferences. That will make the quizzing system variables dynamic: they will take into account only the visited branches, not the non-visited ones. Have a lot of blogs about quizzing and about branch aware.
