Background
When participants submit their assignment, you want to make sure they did not click the Finish button involuntarily. In assessmentQ, you can configure a warning message at the end of a part or assignment to make sure the participants take a deliberate decision:
- Are they sure they want to finish the assignment or part?
- Are they aware that they have any time left?
- Are they aware that they did not answer all questions yet?
- Do you want them to see which questions they have already answered and which not, allowing them to navigate back to unanswered questions?
All of this can easily be configured in the assignment template.
Tip: In the assignment template, you can only configure the warning message related to the end of an assignment or the warning message related to the end of a part. Which one you can configure, depends on the selected navigation mode:
- In the case of linear navigation or free navigation within a part, you can configure a warning message at the end of the part.
- In the case of free navigation, you can configure a warning message at the end of the assignment.
