Including A Flash Learning Interaction In A Document - MACROMEDIA FLASH MX 2004-USING FLASH Use Manual

Including a Flash learning interaction in a document

You can use either quiz templates or stand-alone interactions in your Flash documents:
•
The quiz templates are designed for scenarios in which interaction-based quizzes are required
or tracking is necessary. The quiz learning interactions are graphically designed to fit into the
quiz format. The quiz templates contain a mechanism that counts a cumulative score and starts
and stops the necessary tracking in both AICC- and SCORM-compliant APIs.
•
The stand-alone interactions are designed for scenarios that require a single interaction, or a
series of interactions that need to fit into a specific layout within a Flash document. These are
available from the common library and are graphically designed for stand-alone use. You can
track the results for each individual stand-alone interaction and submit them to an AICC-
compatible LMS. See
To initialize SCORM tracking, you must use a quiz template.
Using the quiz templates
Each of the three quiz templates that come with Flash has a different graphical look and feel, but
they are otherwise identical. Each template contains the following elements:
•
A Welcome page
•
One of each of the six learning interaction types
•
A Results page
•
Navigation elements
•
ActionScript to gather AICC and SCORM tracking information
The quiz templates provide built-in navigation to move among interactions. They also include
ActionScript that can pass tracking information to a web server.
The quiz templates are fully functional. After creating a new document from a quiz template, you
can immediately test the document, before modification, to see how the quiz functions. Included
with a quiz are each of the six learning interaction types that are stored in movie clips in the
library. These movie clips are simply containers for the collection of elements that comprise each
interaction. You break apart the movie clips to edit the pieces.
