Flashcards - Test/Quiz

HI David,
I noticed in the answer to the question, you have "blue" with both upper and lower case. As far as I can tell, the answers in quizmaker aren't case-sensitive, so it doesn't matter if your the first letter of your answer is capitalized or not. As I right on that score?

Hey Joe - Actually on a fill-in-the-blank question you can mark a little box on the form view if you want to make the answers case-sensitive. So technically, unless you mark that box, you wouldn't need to identify both "Blue" and "blue" in the Acceptable Answers list when designing the question.

Hi Joe - You're absolutely correct. I tend to do that out of habit and from working with other programs where I need to accommodate both spellings.

Jeanette's answer is also spot on.

Sorry for the confusion and good catch:-)

Dear David:

I checked out the screenr casts you made for different ways to use Quizmaker. They are all AWESOME! Thanks for the great ideas and even greater lessons on how to go about working with Quizmaker.

Hi Mahazareen!

Thanks for that awesome feedback. I'm glad you found them useful. Believe it or not, I'm still learning new ways to use Quizmaker. Slide View+Timeline gives us so many possibilities.

Thanks and please feel free to share any samples you come up with!

Here's an updated version of the template. Actually it's more of a generic version which might make customizing easier.

David -

This is great.

What folder do you place these in? I have QuizMaker and have looked high and low and can't figure the right folder for templates.

Thanks,

Mark.

Hey Mark - You can put the .quiztemplate files anywhere. I have a folder where I keep generic templates, like this one, and then I'll keep project-specific templates with the corresponding project.

Because there are two ways of working with the template files, you can choose how you want to manage it. For example, if you're double-clicking the template to create your new quizzes, you might want to keep the template in an Asset or Library folder such as:

username\Documents\Client Files\Assets and Libraries\QuizTemplates

Anyway, to make a long answer longer: You can put it anywhere you like:-)

.quiztemplate files aren't like color schemes (.xml) where they need to reside in specific folders.
