Pages: Available Types
There are two main types of pages:
Text Pages
These do not include a question. Think of them like the lecture before the assessment. Text pages can include images and other media. See the instructions on how to add images and video.
Tip: Enter your text in the Question section, even though there isn’t a question.
Question Pages
These include a question component. Required fields for all questions include:
- Question text
- Tip: The Question section can also include any lead-in or explanatory text in addition to the question itself.
- Choice options (varies according to question type)
- Right/Wrong/Maybe/Info designations for each choice
- Tip: Only the Right (green) option will result in a “correct” score. All others, including Maybe and Info, will result in an “incorrect” score.
- Responses (feedback) for every choice
- Tip: Anything entered into the Shared Feedback section will appear in the feedback for every choice, after any feedback entered for a particular choice.
- Navigation (or Branching destinations)
- Tip: The default Next Page is the subsequent page in the lesson. You do not need to adjust the navigation unless reordering or branching pages.
Tip: Remove default placeholder language where necessary, such as for optional Hints.
Available Page Types
Text Variations – Text, Text with Video
- Presentation of content only (does not include a question)
- Option to include various types of media
*Currently, while they may appear as available options, you are not able to create new Text with Audio, Text with Hot Spots, and Text with Slide Show pages as they will not function when attempting to add the corresponding media. However, lessons copied from the CALI Library may contain these page types. In those instances, the media aspects (images with hot spots, slides, audio) cannot be modified.
