Adding Text-Only Pages to Adaptive TDFs

[shelbik37]

We need to add text-only pages (e.g., like a directions page) in between a group of pre-test questions; however, we have never done that with adaptive units. Let's look at this together to see that best way for incorporating these pages into an adaptive TDF.

You mean multiple texts in a single adaptive unit? I think...

[shelbik37]

It's text-only page that should go before a pre-test question. For example, there are specific directions for answering pre-test questions, so these should go on a single page before the question. It's not necessarily IN the adaptive unit but the adaptive unit of course is pulling from the pre-test. We have the pre-test unit actually in a different section of the TDF from basic video units with questions, so that's what is leading me to be unsure of where the text-only pages should go in relation to the pre-test. I don't want to add those pages in a way that the adaptive unit will not properly pull from the pre-test responses. If that makes sense?

Update @JRustyHaner and @MegaGeese - I thought Rusty and I may have figured this out yesterday but I went back to the TDF and realized I don't actually know where these should go. So, we still need y'all to checkout where we should put text-only (e.g., direction) pages if we want them to go in-between pre-test questions.

@shelbik37 Currently MoFaCTs only allows text only instruction pages between units and not between individual questions -- so I am wondering if you need instructions between individual stimuli or is there a reason they are not being broken into separate units.

We can, of course, add static instructions pages between stimuli or stimuli sets, we just have to spec that out. We would have to implement instructions at the stim and cluster levels.
