Quiz Hack Answer

[Blanchefle Strycker]

Ifthis isn't what you are after, perhaps you can share your .story file as it's easier to offer a solution if we can work with your specific setup. Just use the grey 'add attachment' button at the bottom of the post to upload.

I've done what you suggested for the multiple choice and true/false questions but for the mix and match and drag and drop its very difficult to do this. Ideally I would love for the correct answer to just pop up i.e. the correct drag and drop solution for example. It would be great if it was possible :-)

Hi team. We are looking for the same thing, but we are wanting it to be fully automated and display friendly. For example, similar to the way Rise will display which answer is correct immediately when the learner clicks on the wrong answer. Is this possible? Well, I know it's possible with a software tweak. But is there any functionality for this yet?

Hey Tanner! Almost anything is possible in Storyline with triggers, variables, and a little creativity. Can you share a sample of what you've got so far? That way the community can get a better idea of your design and make suggestions on where to go from here.

I work with Tanner. What we are looking for is an easy way to display the correct answer on the incorrect layer. Ideally this would be in the form of a system variable so it is linked to what we specify is the correct answer on the Form View.

In Rise it is made as simple as a click of a setting to say "Show correct answer". We want something similar to that in Storyline. Do you know what variable is tied to the correct answer choice so some JavaScript could be written to automate this? Or can this be an official feature request? Or do you know some way to do that out of the box?

While you can manually add the correct answer to the incorrect feedback layer on each quiz slide, Storyline doesn't have a built-in feature that will automatically display the correct answer. I think that's a really cool idea though, and it would make an excellent feature request.

Hi there. I was reviewing this thread for an answer to this very question. Through a lot of trial and error, I think I found a simple solution to this. I added a green rectangle around the correct answer(s) to my Incorrect slide layer, and then I added a trigger to "Show layer Incorrect when the state of (whichever Rectangles are correct) is normal.

Why are the answer boxes so small on quizzes? I get why matching questions need small boxes--space is limited on screen due to the layout. But there appears to be plenty of room to expand the boxes to the right for multiple choice and multiple answer questions. The answer boxes only allow about 30 characters to be visible in edit mode---when you have 100 character sentences in the box, you can't see the whole sentence and are forced to scroll over which is really annoying.

1) I can't view the question details because I have over 25 questions in the bank. To view the question details I have to a) click edit question b) click cancel c) now the bank will show me the details

Here are some images that may help. I just don't understand why the answer choice box is so small when there is a ton of room next to the answer box used for nothing (see first image and note the ton of empty space).

I find this really annoying as well. As someone who has to go in afterwards and review/edit tests, this is really unproductive. And while the person who created the test can write the question elsewhere and copy and paste it in, as the person reviewing it and editing errors, you have to scroll to see it and it's really tedious.

And I second the request that we be able to see ALL question details, not just 25 questions worth, because having to click edit to see the answer options for 50 or 100 questions is also really unproductive and a waste of time.

I agree with CC19. Of the many annoying things in Canvas, these two are perhaps the most annoying. And NOT just to use instructors. Because they lead to mistakes on quizzes which affects the students' performance. And then there is the time sink of having to go back and correct answers. So productivity is lost twice.

I believe that most of the issues you've expressed concerned about have been addressed with New Quizzes. Have you spoken with Canvas administrators at your school to see what their plans are for making New Quizzes available to you and your colleagues? Some Canvas schools have already released New Quizzes to their faculty...while other schools are holding off until a later date when all Canvas schools will have to eventually make the transition. I would encourage each of you to have these discussions with your school's local Canvas admin or someone from your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Learning department.

My customer has expressed the need to be able to hide correctly answered quiz questions inside all quiz reports. There have been test compromises from teachers sharing answers with students. The material is sensitive, so the less that gets posted online the better.

I've looked through the plug-ins, but nothing at first glance meets what I'm looking for. I've considered removing access to all quiz reports, but I'm concerned that would prevent the teachers from reviewing missed questions with their students (part of procedure).

Below are my Quiz Review Options. I am not sure if this is what you mean, but these settings are set when you create a quiz. In my Moodle, I built these settings into my entire Moodle, system settings.

But, that doesn't stop ex-teachers from sharing that information. One of the organizations requirements is that teachers be able to see quiz reports so that they can review quiz results with their students. In the organization I work for, Teachers are commonly recruited from the student body once they've completed their courses at a schoolhouse. Our schoolhouses aren't good at reporting when a teacher no longer needs a teacher role, and our students often move from one schoolhouse to another in order to learn new disciplines.

I agree, our processes for relieving teachers of their teacher roles is the root cause, but if there is a plug-in that can change what gets shown in the quiz reports, then those shortcomings don't matter.

After completing a quiz with question banks, I noticed an error in one of the answers . . . actually a student did. When I go back to the question bank and change the answer, it does not regrade the quiz. How can I make this happen. PS I have 250 students and really don't want to have to go into speed grader for every kid and regrade manually. Please tell me there is a way to do this.

Since it is "new" and I figure the old way of doing things would eventually go away, I thought I'd try to embrace the "New Quiz" style. I made the exam and went for it.... Never mind the fact that I have to "Bank" questions on a quiz if I want the program to select one or two out of several. (You could just put them all in a block in the old quiz program... now I'm being forced to put them all into "banks".. if every time I need to pick X out of Y choices I need a new "bank" I'm going to have 100+ banks flying around. It doesn't look to me that the current way of organizing these "banks" is up to the challenge of having that many different ones...

I've had about 50+ students take the exam. It's a formula question so going through and grading by hand is nigh impossible. (I need to go in for all 50 students and compute the right answer each time...)

In these remote times when face-to-face instructors and students alike are not as comfortable online as others. This is a HUGE headache. I wish Canvas would seriously take a look and update this issue! Regrading easily is necessary!

I've also learned this lesson the hard way. Most of the time when I've tried something new or a new feature in Canvas, this has resulted in unforeseen consequences that require so much manual backtracking. This has been an incredible time-suck. I have stopped trying anything new in Canvas for fear of having to waste time correcting issues. This platform (Canvas) has stifled my creativity as an instructor. Canvas is THE WORST!

I agree -- Canvas only supports what canvas wants and if you have a better idea or just want to do something slightly different it's an enormous pain, every time. Small mistakes take forever to correct. They are incredibly arrogant about assuming their way is the best or only way to teach, and it is a definite case of technology homogenizing diverse approaches. Bugs me bad.

When I found this page I was pleasantly surprised to find that this question had a solution as, in my experience, it is rare to find answers to canvas problems on this site. So, I wasn't really surprised to find that the solution was that canvas does not support this. Disappointed, yes. Surprised, no.

Dear canvas developers can you PLEASE implement a proper quiz regrading system. The current quiz system in canvas is so poorly thought out that it is risky to use for grading large classes because there is a large risk that a llot of time will be wasted if something goes even sligthly wrong. On-line quizze systems are supposed to save time but every time I use the feature-poor interfaces provided by canvas I end up regretting it because I need to to work around poor design choices and so end up with a time deficit.

On top of this, I find the canvas "community" pages to be a source of constant frustion because time and time again I see users asking canvas to add features, or to fix existing bugs, and then...nothing happens. There is no response from the canvas development team. The bugs are not fixed. The essentially features that are missing are still not implemented...and, at the same time, my university is paying canvas an absolute fortune for the "pleasure" of using this system.
