In the previous tutorial, we looked at adding quizzing to your Camtasia Studio Projects.
In this tutorial, we’ll look at the reports you receive when you choose to report quiz results through email.
We’ll talk about the type of information you can obtain from viewers, how and when you get it, and what it will look like.
Let’s start by looking at the quiz settings you need to have in order to receive data from your viewers.
First, if you want to receive scored quiz results,
make sure that you have Score quiz checked in the quizzing tab for each of the quizzes on your timeline.
Second, when you produce your video, there are multiple production presets which support quizzing:
MP4 with video player and Screencast.com,
as well as ‘Custom production settings’ as long as you select the ‘Flash MP4 and HTML 5’ option.
In the Quiz Reporting Options step in the Production Wizard, you have four options.
You can choose to report quiz results through SCORM, Report quiz results through email, or both.
You can also leave both options unchecked if you don’t want to receive any quiz reporting.
For this tutorial, let’s just choose to report quiz results through email.
When you choose this option, you can either require viewers to input their name and email address
or allow them to take the quiz anonymously.
The example we’re going to look at includes the viewer’s names and email addresses.
Once your quiz is live on Screencast.com or your own hosting site, you’re ready to start collecting data.
Quiz reports are sent to the recipient email address once a day whenever there is new data to report.
Keep in mind that if you need to change the recipient email address you’ll need to reproduce and reshare your video.
Quiz report emails come from services@techsmith.com. The subject will always be your video title plus quiz report.
You’ll want to make sure that your spam filter doesn’t think that the emails are junk mail.
These emails provide a quiz summary which includes the number of new responses since your last report,
the average score, the low and high score, and the average percent of the video viewed.
In addition to the summary, each email includes two attached .csv files
which can be opened with Microsoft Excel or another spreadsheet application…including Google Spreadsheet.
These two files are a detailed quiz report and a summary quiz report.
The Detailed Quiz Report includes the names and email addresses of the viewers, if you selected that option,
and the details of each question set with the answers the viewers gave for each question.
It also provides Percentage Viewed and the time it took them to complete the video and quiz.
The Summary Quiz Report also provides the names and email addresses of the viewers with the percentage of correct gradable
questions followed by the number correct and the number of scored questions.
Short answer questions are not graded, but you receive the answers the viewers gave in the Detailed Quiz Report.
This quiz had a total of 5 questions.
Four of the questions were gradable and one was a short answer. Viewers will only receive a score for attempted questions.
Notice this viewer got 3 questions correct and attempted 3 questions so they have 100 percent correct.
This viewer did not attempt the last gradable question or the short answer question.
If there are short answer questions in the quiz and the user attempted to answer them,
that number will show here in the Number of Unscored Questions column.
Also included in the report are the Time to Complete, Video Name and Start and Finish Time.
Well that covers the details of what’s included in the data you’ll receive via email from the quiz service.
