Adventure

Introduction

A gamified sequence alternating between content pages and quiz questions.

• • What is an Adventure?

    An Adventure is a sequence of 1 to 10 steps enabling participants to explore content in a fun environment. Each step consists of one or more quiz questions (9 possible methods), which may be introduced by a contents page if required (text, videos, and images).

    To encourage competitiveness, a participant leaderboard appears by default, but may be disabled if required.

    An Adventure may be incorporated into a Session or shared as a stand-alone activity.

    Below is what an Adventure looks like on a participant's smartphone:

    

  • Creating an Adventure

    In Klaxoon Home, click on  puis 

    The Creation pop-up is displayed: 

    

    Enter the name of the Adventure (maximum 80 characters), add an image, and then click on create.

    Where is the image for an Activity displayed?

    Activities are displayed in Home or in a Network as an illustrated box.

    When creating them, select an image stored on your device or a photo taken on the fly. If you do not choose one, your profile photo will be used by default.

    You can then subsequently change this in Studio using the file picker (Klaxoon Storage).

    The editing screen is displayed:

    

    In the Settings box, choose the characteristics for your Adventure and then click on save.

    Breakdown of settings:

    Objectives: enter a description that will be shown to participants at the start of the Activity.

    Theme: select the visual theme for your Adventure.

    Leaderboard: enable or disable the general leaderboard display on participants' devices.

    Points: specify the number of points that can be earned per question (e.g.: 100 points per question x 3 steps x 4 questions per step = maximum of 1,200 points for the Adventure).

    In the Mode box, set the mode by which participants progress through the Adventure.

    Which mode should I choose?

    Replay option : After completing the Adventure, participants can start again to improve their score (this option is disabled if the Adventure is placed in a Session).

    Free – Classic: After completing a step, participants move on to the next one, even if they have made mistakes. They can display corrections.

    Step by step – Evaluation: Participants must answer the step correctly to advance to the next one. If they do not achieve the specified percentage, they must replay the step.

    Step by step – Controlled by the facilitator (only in a Session): After completing a step, participants must wait for the facilitator to open the next one in order to access it. That way, the entire group progresses at the same pace.

    In the Steps box, click on add a step, enter the name of the step, and then click on create

    The step editing screen is displayed: 

    

    If you wish to introduce the step, in the Options box, click on add to insert an existing page or to create a new page.
