I’m experimenting Asana forms with different (and sometimes unique) shapes. 🙂  
_see previous use-case : [Use-cases with forms: #1 images (only)](https://forum.asana.com/t/use-cases-with-forms-1-images-only/376169)_

**Use-cases with forms: #2 Training / LMS**  
Here, I’m now looking for an alternative to those (sometimes pricey) LMS tools (Learning Management System).  
I imagined a series of training videos, each followed by a quiz to verify that the trainee would have followed the course. I voluntarily don’t display the answer right away (but only at the end), to put trainees in real conditions (their answers will be evaluated).

**This is what it looks like**

Zoomed-in

‎  
And the results in the project

**Try it yourself:** [Training Module](https://form-beta.asana.com/?k=25mGvbWvuTB5PMsqBFJ9Fg&d=1199168271926687)

* * *

## 🦄 Build it yourself:

1. Prepare your resources: videos and questions.

2. Add a custom field per question.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/a/d/ad1c4db54887bc598648110bc9e6df06b22d6dfb.png)

1. Add description to each custom field (for later use, when reviewing the results)

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/3/6/3607f22dd7744d47a08abf2911380f86eec6e149.png)

1. Create your form:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/f/5/f58b52de3c6cf935d4b0f1efffb2d8e4057a63bd.png)

1. Use “Single-Select” content form to add your videos and questions (Add question title, description with your video and question, and connect answers to your custom fields)

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/a/4/a480172ff6e20ff5280ebde08a72318e68a7edab.png)

## 🧑‍💻To visualize the answers:

When users start responding to your form, this is how their answers would look like:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/7/3/73340a7320884fe8b6884b3ee8951e534f004b58.png)

**Additionally, you can use rules to indicate the correct answer to your respondent:**

_remark: to have your respondent automatically added as collaborator of the task, you need to check the following box in your form settings: “Add submitters in my organization as task collaborators”_

1. Create a rule per each question.

2. Add a trigger per each wrong answer and select “when any of these triggers happen”

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/2/0/20987416906f20fe897923792b038456133008a0.png)

1. Add Action: add a comment stating the correct answer.

Then, in the comments section, you will see the correction:

**Finally, you can create dashboards to see quick reports about which question is the most challenging**

Hi @Simone_Schwende 👋

In the description field, you have a little “+” to insert additional objects, then pick “video” 👍

For scoring - you can create a calculation field with conditions - if they score the right answer - then give them a 1 and if they score incorrectly give them a zero.  
Create 1 field per question.  
Then create a calculation field that sums the score for all the other fields.  
Finally, create a calculation field - if score is above x pass, otherwise fail

Thanks a lot. 👋  
Indeed, I discovered that trick but the article here wasn’t updated. That’s now fixed 😉

I love this idea. Is it possible to some how lock the question until after the video has been watched?

Hi @Kelley_Breslow  
What do you mean exactly by “lock the question” please?  
(I don’t think that would be possible, but I’m trying to understand the context 😉)
