font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Dear List,</span> <br>
<br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I use the
Nottingham template as a base for my modifications. The template includes a gap
fill exercise which uses the textEntry icon. I want to expand the template to
include scoring for right and wrong fills. Also I want to disable the feedback,
because the exercise is used for a placement test. The only feedback is shown
at the end of the test like "You answered xx of yy questions
correct".</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This is what I
did:</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>- changed the
.xwd to contain a checkbox for "Disable Feedback"</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>- modified the
gapfill.rml not to change the type of the textfield (from input to dynamic) if
the above option is enabled (I don't want to have the feedback) and disabled
the feedback message</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>- added a score
variable to the script which is played when the entered text of the textEntry
matches the phrase</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This works all
fine but I still have a problem:</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>- If the user
fills in the correct phrase and than changes the entry again it is still
considered as correct. Even worse: if the user changes the entry again to the
correct value the answer is counted again.</span> <br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>So my question
is: How can I detect if the user changes the text entry to a wrong value? Or
perhaps there is another solution for my problem I haven't thought of?</span> <br>
