How to use General Settings in the Story Editor

In General Settings you can enable or disable story features, limits, and certificates.

Scoring/Grading Mode

In Scoring / Grading Mode you can choose how questions need to be completed.

• Evaluate Grading Mode. If set to Evaluate, then users can submit incorrect answers/activities.

• Teach Grading Mode. If set to Teach, then users must repeat answers/activities until correct.

• Survey Grading Mode. If set to Survey, then there is no correct answer - all answers are accepted.

Sequence

Use the Sequence story setting to determine the order in which users must complete a story.

• Linear sequence. If set to Linear, then users must complete the chapters/sections sequentially.

• Open sequence. If set to Open, then users can complete the chapters/sections in any order.

Allow Activity Skipping

• Activity Skipping On. If enabled, users can skip activities.

• Activity Skipping Off. If not enabled, users must complete activities.

Enable Reviews

• Reviews On. If enabled, comments and reviews may be submitted.

• Reviews Off. If not enabled, comments and reviews may not be submitted.

Allow Multiple Attempts

• On (Default). If enabled, users can attempt multiple times.

• Off. If not enabled, users may only make a single attempt.

If Allow Multiple Attempts is not enabled, then users won't be able to re-do an activity more than once. This setting is ideal for formal assessments. If necessary, you can reset a user's attempt via the logs in analytics.

Publish to Pathway Only (Experimental)

• Publish to Pathway Only On. If enabled, then the story is only available in pathways.

• Publish to Pathway Only Off. If not enabled, then the story is published to the app and available in pathways.

Completion Certificates

• Award Certificates. If enabled, then users will be awarded a certificate for completions.
