How To Create A Quiz With Free Quiz Template In Adobe Flash
This article will demonstrate how to create a simple online quiz, complete with options for feedback, scoring and tracking, using free Flash quiz template. Please ensure you can manage to use Adobe Flash MX, Flash 8, Flash CS3, or Flash CS4 (http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/) before attempting this.

The quiz template is included in Flash MX and above versions, and it is designed to automatically track results and send them to a learning management system configured for your quiz. Furthermore, it should be SCORM and AICC compliant for using in Learning Management System (LMS).

If you're not sophisticated with Adobe Flash editing, you might be interested in the Flash quiz tool Wondershare QuizCreator (http://www.sameshow.com/quiz-creator.html) for rapid development as replacement.

First of all, you can download a 30 day trial version of Adobe Flash from the Adobe's official website (http://www.adobe.com/downloads/).

1. Create a new Flash document choosing the existing Quiz template.
File >New > Templates tab > 'Quiz' Category > 'Modern Photo Quiz_style2 ' Template

2. A fully functional quiz with templates for Drag and Drop, Fill in the Blank, Hot Objects, Hot Spot, Multiple Choice, and True or False, will open.

3. Test the movie
Control > Test Movie

4. Save the Flash document, giving it a name.
File > Save

- Customize Quiz Template

For detailed instructions on how to edit the quiz template to your requirements, learn the official Flash quiz template tutorial at http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/a...quiz_tutorial/.

- Adding A Single Quiz in Flash

You can add any question types as a single quiz (e.g. true or false type) into your Flash document at any time, however these standalone quiz interactions, when used outside of the quiz template, are not designed for SCORM tracking in LMS.

1. If you want to insert a single quiz as learning interaction, you can just do like this:
Window > Common Libraries > Learning Interactions

2. A library of the various learning interactions will open up. Drag the one you want onto the stage.

- Alternative Flash Quiz Solution

As we know, not every user can use Flash programming perfectly to create quizzes. So over the market, there's some rapid quiz authoring tool like
Wondershare QuizCreator (http://www.sameshow.com/quiz-creator.html) to help make Flash quizzes in an easier way.

At last, for more knowledge about using Adobe Flash MX, Flash 8, Flash CS3, or Flash CS4, please refer to Adobe Flash Support Center:

Drag And Drop Quiz - Why Do Targets Keep Appearing In Subsequent Quiz Questions?
I'm trying to create an e-learning quiz that will be a series of drag and drop questions (one per page). The user will be asked a question and will have 8 images visible, but only one of them is correct. So, there are 8 drags to one target.

When the user drags an incorrect image to the target, a text image appears that says to try again, and the image will return to its original location. When the correct question is dragged to the target, a button appears that will take them to the next question. Everything was working until I started to create question 2. I created new drag and drop instances for question 2, but it seems that the images from question 1 continue to be visible in the subsequent question(s) when testing my movie. Depending on how many choices I try to drag before I pick the correct answer in question 1, I also find that some of the button states are no longer active in question 2. What I am doing wrong?

I'm new to AS3 and actionscript in general. Part of my code is based on this tutorial: http://www.monkeyflash.com/flash/drag-and-drop-in-as3/.

I'm attaching my .fla file in hopes this will help others who are having the same problem.

Quiz Or Quiz Template Help For The Clueless?
Hi all. I just wanted to make a simple quiz in flash and then take that quiz and throw it in with some other older flash samples I made. I'm losing my mind as my "handle" for this forum implies

I tried following the help section for the flash quiz template, but I got even more confused! The help/tutorial talks about using a randomizer and I couldn't find the randomizer for the life of me!!

Is there anyone out there that can help me? Maybe you have a script for a basic quiz I can use, or you can send me somewhere online that will help me out. I looked at Atomic Learning's site, but they didn't say if they have tutorials for making a quiz. I have the paperback, "Teach yourself Flash MX in 24 hours" and when I got to page 310, Task: Make a simple draggable object, #2 I had no %$!! clue as to where I was supposed to find "the button instance and open the Actions panel" let alone the "plus button, actions, movie clip control, startDrag".

Can/Will someone please, please, please help me? If I need to be talked/through over the phone or IM, I'll pay for your tutoring services. I'm in northern cali.

Also need to know how the heck to throw the old flash movies (or files) into one big movie with the quiz. Of course, I needed it yesterday.

Thanks!

Help Quiz Template Or Other Quiz Resources?
I'm reading the macromedia tutorial on using the built in quiz template and it keeps talking about AICC and SCORM compliant learning management systems...but it doesn't say anything about using the quiz template if you are not using an LMS. Does anybody know:

1. If I can use the quiz template, generating results and all, if I am not using an LMS?
2. If not, any resources on the web that can help me build a quiz from scratch. I'm not soo good at the actionscripting, and usually rely on web resources to get me through that part of the process. Something tells me there will be a lot of AS involved in scoring a quiz.

Thanks soo much!!!!

Hi
I am creating a flash quiz using the Macromedia quiz template.
I want to create the hot object quiz.

2. The results page does not display correctly the score number

Anyone who knows how to fix these problems, please let me know.

[F8] Flash Quiz - Plz Need Some Help
Hi there,
i'm trying to develop a quiz in flash.
Searching on the net, I found a quiz in flashkit by sephiroth.it by Alessandro Crugnola.
His quiz has a script that puts the questions and the answers in random order.
What i'm looking for is to not select the answers by clicking the mouse, but using the keyPress handler.
Using the keyPress handler the script selects only the first answer.
I tried a lot but i didn't find any solution..
2 hours ago, I thought that I found a solution using if(this._name=="answer1") but it works only with the "on(release)" handler, when I replace it with the on(keyPress) the script selects again only the first answer...
Any help would be much appreciated...

this is the link where you could d/l the quiz:
http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Appli...5192/index.php

and below is the btn source.

Thank you in advance.

on(release){
if(this._name=="answer1")
{
if(!_root.Done){
point._visible = 1
_root.myChoice = thisChoice;// choice
removePoints(_name,this);// remove other points
// making the coice
trace(_root.myChoice);
if(_root.myChoice != undefined){
_root.Done = true;
_root.totalAnswer++;
if(_root.myChoice){
giusta._visible = 1
_root.correctAnswer++
}
// displaing right & wrong answers
if(!_root.myChoice){

}
if(_root.totalAnswer == _root.toDisplay){

QUIZ In Flash
I am trying to create a quiz for a students. Where on a CD a flash movie opens with link to a) a long course movie and b) a test

The course movie is already created and works fine
Then I can create a exe flash file with autorun to link to this movie. The idea is the student get the CD and places in the CD the flash movie open with two links. Link one links to standard swf movie. This all works Once watched they can close the window down returning to the lauched flash movie. I can do all of this no problem. The issue comes in some way there need to 20 question that I can score and rank. The interaction of use needs to recorded to text file that I can direct them to at the end of test.

So the question would be is it possible via action scripting of a method in flash to create a text file in the users my documents folder and then write to based on buttons pressed or text imputs ? Some ideas if this is possible and chat about quizs would be great.

Hope thats enough info.

Hello:
I am making a Flash Quiz using the (Key.isDown(key.ENTER)). However, every time I press the ENTER key on my keyboard, the scores get added (definitely because of the "onEnterFrame" function)

Kindly advise which function I should use instead of the "onEnterFrame"
to make my codes and score work properly. The idea is that after typing the correct answer "lascaux"
the user obtains 25 points, else nothing.

Thank you.

Attach Code

stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {

myScore = 0;

I found this niftt program to allow me to do a quiz with my students, and I want to make a small change but I don't understand XML. I can change the questions.. no problem there... but I would like to add a field in the XML called <explain> that has an explanation of the answer to replace the text on the right side when you get it wrong. So instead of discplaying the text of the correct answer I would display the text in the explain field.

So the XML would look something like this
</Question>
<Question answer="A" Value="3. Today the greatest risk factor for developing Bladder cancer is: ">
<Explain> The Correct answer is A. Cigarrette Smoking. This is found on page 33 of your text book.</Explain>
<Answers value="Cigarette smoking"/>
<Answers value="Drinking coffee"/>
<Answers value="Using sweetener"/>
</Question>

and instead of just listing the option on the right side it would display the contents of <Explain>

Can anyone help? I know it must be simple but I don't have a clue.

See the attached file for the program

Flash Xml Quiz
Ok, I have an xml doc that has 6 categories that are colors and 4 questions that fall under each category. My question is I'm trying to create a quiz that will grab a question/answers based on a variable between 1-6 from the (6) categories in the xml doc. But the kicker is I want the user to have to choose from a different category if the 1-6 variables are different. And I need to walk down and grab a different question if they have been to blue before or maybe just a random question from the blue or green section.

If anyone could shed some light on my dark situation I would be grateful.

The xml doc example of one section the doc has 6 nodes with 4 questions each.

<quiz answer="The earth">where are you at?
<choice name="The earth">yes, you are right</choice>
<choice name="mars">no, that is wrong</choice>

Im a total beginner with Flash/Actionscript (I started yesterday hehe), but Im gathering a bit of knowledge from the net. I have absolutley no idea what the code to do the above would look like. Any help would be much much appreciated!

Flash Quiz Help
hello -

I have tried and failed at creating a simple flash quiz. Has anyone seen one built that they would post a link to.

The quiz I am trying to build is multiple choice that gives specific feedback for correct or incorrect responses (more then just a Wrong or Correct response but individualized feedback for each question/answer) that has a simple scoring mechanism in it (so at the end you get a x of 10 score). I have found many but none that give user feedback with scoring. Any help would be appreciated.

Quiz In Flash
Hi there,

I'm working on this web training product for a client which is going to have quizzes at the end of each module. I'm thinking of using the
radio button and combobox components for people to choose the answers to their questions as the majority of them will be multiple choice.

My question is this: Is there a tutorial or a source file on the internet dealing with quizzes, and submitting their resultsto a mySQL database using PHP in an object oriented fashion? Something I could look at and learn from to develop my own soloution?

Any help or suggestions will as always be greatly appreciated. Once again, as always, massive respect to the great people in the Flash community, you havent let me down yet.

Peace,

Rob

Flash Quiz
Firstly,
I am trying to create a Flash Quiz which would have about 20 Questions which is gender based.
For Example if some one answers their Gender as Male in the first question they will have to get questions related to their gender.

Like
1)Are you Male or Female: Male (Selected Answer)
2)Male related questions

1)Are you male or female? Female (Selected Answer)
2)Female related questions

Secondly,
The answers to the quiz need to go to a excel data sheet.

How can I create this kind of quiz in Flash? Or is there a better option than Flash?

thanks
