I can't figure out how to assign point for scoring in branching scenario!

Hello, please help me if you can. I just made my first branching scenario and it works great, but I can't figure out where to assign points so students get a score. In "settings" I chose "scoring" and  I've tried changing from "statically" to "dynamically calculate score" but I still can't figure out how to assign points so it has something to score. 

Here's my activity: https://physicalscience.h5p.com/content/1291490376069230628

I'm a newbie so I'm probably just missing something very obvious ;-)

Thanks!

Hi arary,

I'm afraid your content is not published publicly so I can't check but I'll try to explain how to set up scoring in Branching Scenario.

There are 4 ways to set this up:

Static Scoring (End scenario based scoring) 

  1. Choose "Statically set score for the end Scenario"
  2. Add the contents
  3. For each content at the end of the branches, open the "Advanced branching options" and choose "Custom end Scenario"
  4. Place your feedback and the score for that scenario.

Sample content: https://bv-demo.h5p.com/content/1291490660775174389

Note: Using this option will set the content to not consider which path or whatever answers the students choose. Scores will be provided only for which end scenario was chosen.

Dynamic does not include scores from contents

  1. Choose "Dynamically Choose Scores from user answers
  2. Uncheck "Include scores from interactions within the Branching Scenario"
  3. Open the branching question
  4. For each branch/answer open "Advanced branching options"
  5. Place a score under "Score for this scenario"

Sample Content: https://bv-demo.h5p.com/content/1291490664853030729

Note: This option will only consider which branching options where chosen and will not consider the answers to the other activities (ie. course presentation)

Dynamic includes scores from contents but not branches

  1. Choose "Dynamically Choose Scores from user answers
  2. Check "Include scores from interactions within the Branching Scenario"

Sample Content: https://bv-demo.h5p.com/content/1291490667147090059

Note: This calculate only the scores from contents. Please note that for scores to be calculated students needs to reach the "Summary slide" of Course Presentation and click submit in the "submit screen" of Interactive Video. This option will not work if there are no graded acitivities in the content ie. branching options with text and videos only.

Dynamic includes scores from contents and branches

  1. Choose "Dynamically Choose Scores from user answers
  2. Check "Include scores from interactions within the Branching Scenario"
  3. Open the branching question
  4. For each branch/answer open "Advanced branching options"
  5. Place a score under "Score for this scenario"

Sample content: https://bv-demo.h5p.com/content/1291490671187216829

Note: This is a combination of the 2nd and 3rd option. Also the steps are very similar to the 2nd option except that you need to check the "Include scores..."

You might be asking with so many options which one to choose. It depends on your content. If the most important part of the activity is the end scenario then static is the way to go. If the choices are more important then Dynamic is the way to go.

I think I got it. Thanks for the explanation. Also I didn't realize I needed to publish my activities. I was just copying the URL and pasting into Canvas. Seems to work fine for my students. But if I want to share with another teacher, I probably need to publish it as "public" correct?

Hi arary,

This depends on your settings and how they will access the content. If you have setup the LTI integration in Canvas, inserted the content using the LTI integration and they have access to that course they can see the content. On the other hand if you are providing a direct link to the content (similar as the one you provided above), and they are not authors on the H5P.com account they will not be able to access it if it is not published publicly.
