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.
17. When you finish, click OK twice.
Add fill-in-the-blank questions
Fill-in-the-blank questions contain a blank space that users fill in by entering text (such as a word or phrase) or selecting from a list of possible
answers.
1. In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).
2. 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.
3. In Quiz Manager (Adobe Presenter > Quiz group > Manager), click the quiz to which you want to add a question and click Add Question.
4. In the Question Types dialog box, select Fill-in-the-blank and click one of the following options:
The question is graded.
The question is not graded.
The New fill-in-the-blank question dialog box appears.
5. 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.
If you are creating more than one question of the same type (for example, multiple-choice, short answer, and so on.) in a single
presentation, type a unique name for each so that you can distinguish between them.
6. In the Description text box, accept the default text for Description or enter a new description. The description appears on the questions slide
in the presentation and should give users instructions about how to answer the question. (The Description field cannot be left blank.)
7. 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.
8. Select the Shuffle Answers In List option to randomly change the order in which possible answers appear.
9. In the Phrase text box, type the entire sentence or phrase that will contain a blank space to be completed by users or will contain a blank
space with a drop-down list of possible answers for users to select from.
10. Select the word or phrase that you intend to be the blank area and click Add Blank. You can have a maximum of 8 blanks in a question.
(When a blank is created, the blank is represented by “<i>” in the dialog box with the “i” representing the number assigned to the blank. Do
not edit the text “<i>” manually. Use the Add blank and Delete blanks buttons to achieve the desired results.)
11. In the Blank Answer dialog box, specify how users will choose the correct answer:
Users type an answer in a text box.
Users select an answer from a drop-down list. (The drop-down list can display
answers approximately 22 characters in length. Answers longer than 22 characters may not be fully visible in the published output.)
12. If necessary, click Add and enter more words or phrases that correctly fill in the blank space in the question. Click Add and Delete as
necessary to create a list of correct answers.
13. (Optional) Select The Answer Is Case-Sensitive to require that users type the correct combination of lowercase and uppercase letters when
filling in the blank. For example, if the answer to the question is “Windows” and you select the case-sensitive option, an answer of “windows”
is incorrect.
14. Click OK.
15. Select the Options tab.
16. (Optional) In Type, use the pop-up menu to change the question type to Graded or Survey.
17. Select Show Clear Button to display a button on the question slide that users can click to clear their answers and start over.
18. 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.
