Design the Knowledge Check Mode

Article Overview

In this lesson, you will learn how to design a walkthrough mode, how content maps from Lesson Builder into Simulator (the learning environment), and best practices for your design process.

1. Knowledge Check demos from the Learner's Lens
2. Design the Knowledge Check Mode using the General & Practice Tabs
   • Includes a map that illustrates the relationship between Studio entries and where those entries display in the Learning Environment
3. Auto Scroll Control 
   • Use when multiple actions are performed in a single scroll screen and you notice it keeps jumping to the top on subsequent steps
4. Best Practices

1) Demos of Knowledge Check in Simulator

2) Design the Knowledge Check Mode using the General & Practice Tabs

All you need to do to finalize the Knowledge Check Mode is enter the [Expected Value] for steps requiring text entry. You likely already did this for the Practice Mode and can copy/paste your entry.  Don't forget, text entry is case specific.  You may want to consider setting multiple correct answers using Regex, ie:

• If the expected text entry is 'false', accept:  False & false
• If the expected text entry is 4000, accept:  4000 & 4,000

To get help with multiple correct answers, you can reference this article:  Regex

3) Auto Scroll Control

When learners have to perform multiple actions in a scroll area:  You may notice, as learners scroll down and click on a control, that the visible portion of the screen jumps back to the top of the scroll area instead of staying locked in the area the learner clicked.  This is because they have advanced to the next step and the next screen loads to the top.  

• Consider this:  You're on a website and you click on a link, the next screen will open to the top of the page and you have to scroll down.  
• Skyllful works the same way, clicking on a screen advances the learner to the next step and that screen will load to the top (even if it is a duplicate of the previous screen).

If you would prefer learner advances to the next step without 'jumping to top', you can set the next screen to lock in the position of your choosing.  These controls can be found in the Practice tab AND in the Knowledge Check tab.  It is called Auto Scroll Control.

4) Best Practices

• Once you have deployed lessons to a pilot audience, use IQ data as well as learner feedback to improve lessons before full deployment.  Continue to solicit feedback to strengthen your learning program.
• Be careful when entering your expected value (when using a text entry control).  Text entry is case-sensitive.
• If your workflow is long and it doesn't make sense to break it into multiple lessons, consider inserting instructions in chunks, on simple screens inserted at benchmark locaitons throughout the workflow.  Don't forget to turn these off for modes you don't want them visible.
