š Part 1: VR 360° Exploration Slide
The first slide in this experience features a 360-degree environmentĀ that encourages curiosity and spatial exploration. Learners can pan and click to engage with various visual elements ā a design choice aimed at promoting engagement and āunlockingā their math adventure.
This slide was not designed to collect data or report to an LMS. Instead, its purpose was to:
Set the tone for an interactive math experience
Showcase immersive design possibilities in Captivate
Allow learners to freely explore without performance pressure
ā Part 2: LMS-Compatible Custom Question Slide
Following the VR experience, learners encounter a custom question slideĀ built entirely from scratch ā not using Captivateās default quiz templates. This gave me more control over layout, visual design, and interaction logic.
š§ How It Works:
I created custom buttonsĀ for each multiple-choice answer
Each button was assigned an Advanced Action
The correct answer used Submit InteractionĀ + Mark Slide Complete
Incorrect answers were configured to trigger visual feedback (but in this case, feedback was suppressed ā see below)
šÆ LMS Reporting Setup:
The slide was marked as reportableĀ to the LMS
The interaction used SCORM 1.2Ā settings to ensure compatibility
The module was tested using SCORM Cloud, confirming the questionās score and completion status were tracked
š£ Note on Feedback:
While Captivate allows for custom feedback to be triggeredĀ per answer, I intentionally disabled visible feedbackĀ for this slide. Since this was part of a pre-assessment, I didnāt want to guide or influence the learnerās choices with corrections or explanations at this stage. However, feedback logic was still built in and could be activated for post-test or formative use.
š” Instructional Design Rationale:
This two-part setup demonstrates how immersive experiences can be paired with meaningful assessment, even when spread across different slides. It also highlights how you can:
Use Captivateās VR featuresĀ for engagement
Build custom, LMS-reportable interactionsĀ using Advanced Actions
Balance design creativity with technical functionality
