How to Create the Quizes

In your CAI, you can add many types of tests: true or false, multiple choice, fill in the blank, matching and other tests by adobe captivate. 

True / False questions

True / False questions are probably the easiest question types to create in an eLearning tutorial so let's get started with one of them.

1.      In the toolbar, click Slides and choose Question Slide.

2.      In the Insert Questions dialog box, select the True/False checkbox and click OK.

A question slide is inserted after the slide title Summary.

Also, after the question slide, Captivate inserts a Quiz Results slide.

3.      In the question slide, enter the following question in the text area (overwriting the placeholder text):

You cannot create Responsive projects with Adobe Captivate.

4.      In the choices, select False.

Multiple Choice questions

Multiple choice questions are of two types:

  • Pick only one correct answer.
  • Pick all possible correct answers.

1.      In the toolbar, click Slides and choose Question Slide.

2.      In the Insert Questions dialog box, select the Multiple Choice checkbox.

3.      To create two multiple choice questions, in the text box to the right, enter 2 and click OK.

Two multiple choice question slides are inserted after the slide title Summary.

Also, after the question slides, Captivate inserts a Quiz Results slide.

4.      Navigate to the first question slide, and enter the following question in the text area (overwriting the placeholder text):

Which option in the menu allows you to create rectangular shapes in Captivate?

By default, Captivate adds placeholders for two choices. Let's add two more placeholders to provide the user with four choices.

5.      To open the Properties Inspector, click Properties in the right corner of the toolbar and then go to the Quiz Inspector.



6.      Click the default number of answers (2) and change this to 4.

7.      In the question slide, enter the following answers and ensure that choice B (the correct answer) is selected:



8.      Navigate to the second multiple choice question slide and enter the following question:

Which of the following are types of Captivate projects that you can create?

Pick all that apply.

· In the Quiz Inspector, click the default number of answers (2) and change this to 4.

Also, to allow the user to pick all that apply, check Multiple Answers.



· In the question slide, enter the following answers and ensure that the corresponding choices are selected:



 

Fill-in-the-blank questions

Fill in the blank is a test question where students are given a statement with a blank and they are required to fill it in with the most appropriate answer possible.

1.      In the toolbar, click Slides and choose Question Slide.

2.      In the Insert Questions dialog box, select the Fill-In-The-Blank checkbox and click OK.

A question slide is inserted after the slide title Summary.

Also, after the question slide, Captivate inserts a Quiz Results slide.

3.      In the question slide, enter the following statement in the text area (overwriting the placeholder text: Type the blank phrase):

Use the Themes option in the toolbar to change the overall appearance of your Captivate project.

When the project is displayed to users, we need to hide Themes and ask users to fill in that blank.

4.      Select the entire word Themes in the slide.

5.      To open the Properties Inspector, click Properties in the right corner of the toolbar and then go to the Quiz Inspector.



6.      In the Quiz Inspector, click Mark Blank.

Notice that the word Themes is now underlined. It indicates that the word Themes will appear as blank for users to fill in.

We can also apply a few settings to the word. Let's do that.

Matching questions

Matching questions are useful to check one-to-one relations in an eLearning project.

    

1.   In the toolbar, click Slides and choose Question Slide.

    

 2.  In the Insert Questions dialog box, select the Matching checkbox and click OK.

A question slide is inserted after the slide title Summary.

Also, after the question slide, Captivate inserts a Quiz Results slide.

 3.  In the question slide, enter the following in the text area (overwriting the placeholder text: Match the following):

Match the toolbar options in Column 1 with their definitions in Column 2.
