Automatic Feedback

Description

Automatic Feedback displays feedback messages automatically, in response to user input.

Each Automatic Feedback addon should be coupled with another addon and will display an appropriate message based on the changes in that addon's state. The message will be displayed either immediately or when the user presses the Check Answers button. It is possible to configure a different message based on whether the answer is correct, incorrect, partially correct, or if no answer was provided.

The feedback message may be displayed either within the body of the Automatic Feedback addon, as a tooltip appearing next to the appropriate item of the coupled addon (or the addon itself in case of the Default activity type), or as a popup. Additionally, it is also possible to display a button first and only show the user the main message when it has been pressed.

Properties

The list starts with the common properties, learn more about them by visiting the Modules description section. The other available properties are described below.

Property name	Description
ActivityModuleID	ID of the addon to Automatic Feedback is to work with
Activity Type	Either the type of the addon specified in the ActivityModuleID (such as Text, Choice, etc.), or Default if the addon type is not supported. If this property is not set, Default will be used.
Correct Feedback	Variable length list of elements containing two fields. ActivityItem specifies an element of the addon (for instance, a gap in a Text module). Feedback specified what message should be displayed when the answer in the specified element is correct.
Incorrect Feedback	Variable length list of elements containing two fields. ActivityItem specifies an element of the addon (for instance, a gap in a Text module). Feedback specified what message should be displayed when the answer in the specified element is incorrect.
Empty Feedback	Variable length list of elements containing two fields. ActivityItem specifies an element of the addon (for instance, a gap in a Text module). Feedback specified what message should be displayed when there is no answer in the specified element.
Partial Feedback	Variable length list of elements containing two fields. ActivityItem specifies an element of the addon (for instance, a gap in a Text module). Feedback specified what message should be displayed when the answer in the specified element is incomplete, but not incorrect.
Display	Specifies how the feedback message is to be displayed: within the Automatic feedback addons body ("block"), as a tooltip next to the element ("tooltip"), or as a popup ("popup")
Display Feedback Buttons	When set to true, the addon will initially display only a small button, and only when it has been pressed the full feedback message will be shown.
ReactTo	Specifies in response to what event should the feedback message be displayed. If set to "Script", feedback will not be displayed automatically and instead needs to be triggered using commands.
lang Attribute	Specifies the language used by the TTS while reading the feedback.

ActivityItem format

The activity item property can be used to specify an item or a range of items within the addon. In order to select a single item, simply input it's number (the order of items will depend on the specific addon), e.g. "3". In order to select a continuous range of items, input the first and last number separated by a dash, e.g. "5-7". It is also possible to join several separate items or ranges of items by using commas, e.g. "1,3,5-8,10-15".
