Adobe Presenter 6

Add a rating scale question to a presentation

Users answer rating scale questions by specifying their level of agreement to a statement. For example, a user may be given the question, “This presentation provided me with valuable information.” and asked if they disagree, somewhat disagree, are neutral, somewhat agree, or agree.

Rating scale questions are always survey questions and are therefore not graded. You cannot assign a rating scale question with a point value, nor can you creating branching for a correct or incorrect answer (since it’s a survey question and does not have a correct or incorrect answer). You can, however, decide what happens after the user completes the rating scale question, such as continuing to the next slide or displaying a URL.

  1. In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT file).
  2. Select the slide before the one where you want to insert a question slide. For example, if you want the new question slide to be slide 7 in the presentation, click slide 6.
  3. From the Adobe Presenter menu, select Quiz Manager.
  4. Select the quiz to which you want to add a question and click Add New Question.
  5. In the Question Types dialog box, select Rating Scale (Likert).
  6. Click Create Survey Question.
  7. On the Question tab, accept the default text for the Name or type new text directly into the text box. The name appears on the question slide in the presentation.
    If you are creating more than one question of the same type (for example, multiple-choice and short answer) in a single presentation, type a unique name for each so that you distinguish between them.
  8. Accept the default text for Description or type a new description directly into the text box. The description appears on the question slide in the presentation and should provide users with instructions about how to answer the question. (The description text box cannot be left blank.)
  9. In the Questions area, click in the first row or click Add and type a Likert question directly into the text box. (You can add up to five separate Likert questions on a single slide.)
  10. In the Answers area, you can accept the default answer text, edit the text, delete a type, and add a new answer types. To edit the text, double-click existing text such as “Neutral” and type new text. To delete an answer type, select a type and click Delete. To add an answer type, click Add and type new text. (You can have a total of five answer types.)
  11. Select the Options tab.
  12. Select Show clear button to display a button on the question slide that users can click to clear their answers and start over.
  13. In the After Survey question area, set the following options:
    Action
    Click the desired action/destination after the survey is taken. 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).

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

    Play Audio Clip
    Select this option to import an audio file or record a new audio file that should play when the question is answered. Use the Record, Stop, Remove, and Import buttons as necessary. (If you have already recorded audio, the record button will be a Play button. To re‑record 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.

  14. Select the Reporting tab. You can accept the default settings or, if necessary, modify the following options:
    Report Answers
    This option sends answer information to Connect Enterprise Server or a learning management system.

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

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

    Interaction ID
    Accept the default number or type a new number directly into the text box. The maximum length of an interaction ID is 64 characters. If you want the Presenter presentation to send tracking information to Connect Enterprise Server, you must use the Interaction ID specified by Connect Enterprise 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 Connect Enterprise Server. We do not recommend creating new questions by copying and pasting; always create new questions using the Quiz Manager.

  15. When you finish, click OK.
  16. Click OK again to close the Quiz Manager.

    The new rating scale question slide appears in the designated location in the presentation.
