Tips: Some are more right than others
The Chase Fill in entry mode requires you to enter study item
references directly, without choices to select from. This is more
difficult, but also more effective in reinforcing your knowledge.
Those who have used both can attest to this.
However, you may not know that in Fill in entry mode, entering a
reference incorrectly isn't an "all or nothing" proposition. For
example, if you incorrectly enter "Mark 4:2" instead of "Mark 5:2" for
a reference, then Scriptorian gives you a score of 2 out of 3 for your
answer: correct answer for book and verse, incorrect for chapter (if
you have the Book and Chapter only option set, Scriptorian will give
you a score of 1 out of 2, ignoring any verses entered). However, if
you entered "Mark 52:2" instead, you would get a score of 0 because
the reference is invalid- there are not 52 chapters in Mark.
This feature also applies to non-scriptural references when they are
delimited by commas. As an example, for the quote:
"You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any
direction you choose",
the reference could be "Dr. Seuss, Oh the Places You'll Go, pg 2". If
you entered "Dr. Seuss, Cat in the Hat, pg 2", then you would score 2
out of 3. The Book and Chapter only option can be applied to non-
scriptural references as well in that only the first two parts of the
reference would be required, in this case "Dr. Seuss" and "Oh the
Places You'll Go".
How do you use Scriptorian? Have you come up with some ideas that may
be useful for others? Please share them through the feedback page or e-mail them to us.
