[DG: Teaching & Learning] question on Samigo test capability

[Neal Caidin]

Hi Linda Beith,

I'm don't think there is a way to do this. We could check with the 
Samigo team and see if they have any plans. Lessons has an adaptive 
release feature, but I don't think there is a way to make it contingent 
based on a student's response.

Cheers,
Neal

> Our Physics professors approached me with an interesting request for 
> the Tests & Quizzes tool. In their Introductory Physics labs they use 
> /McDermott's Tutorials in Introductory Physics/ and /Workshop 
> Physics/. My understanding is these lab manuals are written in an 
> inquiry type pedagogy where students are asked a thought question 
> before they've been introduced to the content. The students formulate 
> an answer and, in a traditional setting, they are directed to go to 
> the teacher with their answer. The teacher then gives them several 
> more prompts that guide the students toward  "discovering" the 
> information.
>
> So what they'd like to be able to do is put a short answer/essay 
> question into the Tests & Quizzes with the first question. Based on 
> the student's response he or she is directed to additional branching 
> questions that either provide more clarification (if they were totally 
> off) or bring the student deeper into the content (if they were on the 
> right track). They explained what they are looking for as similar to 
> the Qualtrics "skip logic" question in a survey where the user is 
> directed to different question sets depending on how they answer the 
> first question. They were also thinking about providing feedback for 
> wrong answers that would then send the student back to try again with 
> more information.

> Although this is a cool and interactive approach I wasn't sure how to 
> handle it in Tests & Quizzes. I did think that they could set up 
> different quizzes and then hyperlink/deep link from the feedback into 
> the branching quiz but this isn't the same thing. Any ideas on this?
