Add true or false questions

In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).

Select the slide before the one where you want to insert a question. For example, if you want the new question slide to be slide 7 in the presentation, click slide 6.

If you are inserting the question into an existing quiz, the question is appended to the quiz.

In Quiz Manager (Adobe Presenter > Quiz group > Manager), click the quiz to which you want to add a question and click Add Question.

In the Question Types dialog box, select True/False and click one of the following options:

The question is graded.

The question is not graded.

The New true/false question dialog box appears.

On the Question tab, accept the default text for the name or enter a new name in the Name text box. The name appears on the question slide in the presentation.

In the Question text box, type the true-or-false question exactly as you want it to appear on the slide. (The Question text box cannot be left blank.)

In the Score text box, type (or use the up and down arrows to specify) the number of points allocated to this question. Assigning points signifies the relative importance of a question. Assigning different point values to different questions lets you, for example, give introductory questions a lower value and advanced questions a higher value. You can enter any whole number value. If all questions have the same value (for example, 10 points), they are scored equally.

In the Answers area, establish which answer is correct by selecting either True or False.

From the Type pop‑up menu, select True or False, or Yes or No. (To customize the answer options, select the existing text in the Answers area and type a new word. For example, select True and type Valid.)

In Numbering, use the pop‑up menu to select an option for how answers are listed on the quiz slide. You can choose from uppercase letters, lowercase letters, or numbers.

Select the Options tab.

(Optional) From the Type pop‑up menu, select the question type: Graded or Survey.

Select Show Clear Button to insert a button on the slide that users can click to clear their answers and start over.

In the If Correct Answer area, set the following options:

Select which action should follow a correct response. You can advance to the next slide (Go To Next Slide, the default action), jump to another slide in the presentation (Go To Slide), or display a web page (Open URL). If you display a web page, type its address in the open URL text box, and then specify where to display the web page (choose Current to have the web page replace the presentation or New to display the web page in another window).

Depending on the option you selected for Action, this text box lets you specify an exact destination.

Select this option to import an audio file or record a new audio file that should play when the question is answered correctly. Use the Record, Stop, Remove, and Import buttons as necessary. (If you have already recorded audio, a Play button replaces the Record button. To rerecord audio, you must first remove the audio, and then select Record.)

note: If a question has an audio clip and an action, the audio clip plays and then the specified action takes place.

Select this option to provide a text message to users when they provide a correct answer. Deselect this option if you don’t want to give any feedback for a correct answer.

In the If Wrong Answer area, set the following options:

Use the arrows or type directly in the text box to specify how many guesses the user can make before another action takes place. An attempt is defined as any time a user opens and views the question slide. (Setting the number of attempts to 1 prevents the presentation from proceeding if the user exits and then attempts to enter the quiz again. Do not set attempts to 1 if you plan to use your presentation in a meeting or place in an archive.)

Select this option to give users an unlimited number of attempts.

Click the desired action or destination after the last attempt. You can advance to the next slide (Go To Next Slide, the default action), jump to another slide in the presentation (Go To Slide), or display a web page (Open URL). If you display a web page, type its address in the Open URL text box, and then specify where to display the web page (choose Current to have the web page replace the presentation or New to display the web page in another window).

Depending on the option you selected for Action, this text box lets you specify an exact destination.

Select this option to import an audio file or record a new audio file that should play when the question is answered incorrectly. Use the Record, Stop, Remove, and Import buttons as necessary.

Select this option to provide a text message to users when they provide an incorrect answer. Deselect this option if you don’t want to give any feedback for an incorrect answer.

Select this option to provide a text message to users who give an incorrect answer but have remaining attempts (for example, “Please try again”).

Select this option to provide a text message to users who don’t provide an answer (for example, “Please select an answer before continuing”).

note: You can edit the default text in the Correct, Error, Retry, and Incomplete messages in the Quiz Manager. Select Adobe Presenter > Quiz group > Manage, and click the Default Labels tab.

Select the Reporting tab. You can accept the default settings or, if necessary, modify the following options:

This option sends answer information to Adobe Connect Server or a learning management system.

Name of the quiz to which this question is assigned. You can select a different quiz from the pop‑up menu.

This is a number automatically created when you create a quiz. This number is used to report scores from Adobe Presenter presentations that will be tracked in Adobe Connect Server or a learning management system.

Accept the default number or type a new number directly in the text box. The maximum length of an interaction ID is 64 characters. If you want the Adobe Presenter presentation to send tracking information to Adobe Connect Server, you must use the Interaction ID specified by Adobe Connect Server.

note: If you create a new question by copying and pasting an existing question slide, you must enter a new, unique Interaction ID so that each individual question is reported properly to Adobe Connect Server. We do not recommend creating new questions by copying and pasting; always create new questions using the Quiz Manager.

When you finish, click OK twice.
