<feedback>

<feedback> is an Evaluation component that renders a boxed section of content that can be triggered by predefined user interactions.

Attributes and Properties

Example: <feedback> for any arbitrary incorrect answer

The condition for triggering the <feedback> consists of a boolean that has two parts. The first part references the creditAchieved property of the named <answer>, and the second checks to see whether the user has yet submitted a response. No feedback is provided if the user answers the question correctly.

Example: <feedback> based on <choice> selected

The <feedback> provided to the user is tied to the <choice> selected within an <answer>.

Example: Feedback defined directly in choices

Feedback is defined within each <choice> with the feedbackText attribute.
Below the <answer> block, the feedback text is rendered to the viewer with the reference $ans.feedbacks.

Example: <feedback> tied to an <award>

Individualized feedback is provided to specific responses by referencing named awards in the condition.

Atttibute Example: condition

<p>Enter 2 (and get it wrong...):
  <answer name="ans">2</answer></p>
<feedback condition="$ans != 2 and $ans.responseHasBeenSubmitted">
  This is not a 2
</feedback>

The condition attribute specifies the boolean condition necessary for rendering the <feedback>.

Attribute Example: updateWith

When the updateWith attribute is specified, the condition for the <feedback> is re-checked after the specified action. An <answer> action is completed when the user clicks the Check Work button. The action for a <mathInput> is completed when the input box is no longer activated (i.e. the user navigates outside the box).
