      Configure macro-adaptive in a training path

      Macro-Adaptive Learning personalizes a training path based on participants' skills. A self-assessment test, placed at the beginning of the training path or a specific section, allows participants to validate certain steps and follow a path tailored to their needs.

      Difference between the two types of placement tests


      Placement test at the beginning of the path:

      This test is presented at the very beginning of the training path to assess the participant's overall skills. Based on the results, the path is automatically adjusted. Mandatory parts remain unchanged, but parts marked as "Adaptive" will be activated or deactivated according to the skills assessed. Thus, the participant will only follow the necessary adaptive parts, offering them a personalized and targeted learning experience.

      Placement test at the beginning of sections:

      This test is placed before each section of the training path to evaluate the participant's specific skills. Based on the results, mandatory steps remain unchanged, but steps marked as "adaptive" will be activated or deactivated. These regular mini-assessments allow the content to be continuously adjusted, providing more precise and personalized learning based on the participant's needs.

      Create a Placement Test

      You can configure a placement test either at the beginning of the training path or at the start of specific sections. These tests help assess participants' skills and tailor their path to their needs.

      To configure the placement test, follow these steps:

      1. Access the "Configure" tab.
      2. Select one of the following options:
        • "Create a placement test at the beginning of the training path"
        • "Create a placement test at the start of one or more steps".
      3. For each part or step, define a status:
        • "Mandatory "asterisk: All participants must follow this part.
        • "Adaptive" eval_rose :  The part is subject to a placement test, and only those who have not validated their skills will follow it.
        • "Optiona"l asterisk-barre: The part is optional and does not affect progress.
      4. Create or import questions for the "Adaptive" parts.
      5. Set a passing threshold for each part or step.

      Set Advanced Options

      Advanced options allow you to further customize your placement tests:

      • Question formats: Select the type of learning activities generated.
      • Question order: Choose whether questions should be randomized or presented in a fixed order.
      • Time limit: Set the maximum duration for answering the questions.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      What is the difference between the placement test at the beginning of the path and the one at the start of sections?

      • Test at the beginning of the path: Evaluates skills for major sections of the training path to personalize the entire path from the start.
      • Test for sections: Assesses skills at the beginning of each step to refine the personalization progressively.

      What happens if a participant fails the placement test?

      The participant will need to follow the corresponding content to improve their skills.
