What's new with Mazetec Software?


New Conditional Logic Features!

Magically teleport your students to next step in your role-play when the conditions are right!

Here’s what you need to know:
  • Mix and match student’s score, time, and other variables to route them on different paths.
  • Combine variables with operators (<, >, <=, >=, !=, ==, AND, OR) to create flexible conditions that meet your needs!
  • Build Conditions in the flow of learning. When a student selects a choice linked to a Conditional branch, the Conditions are processed in the background and the student is directed to the next branch.
  • If all the conditions are false, the student is redirected to the fallback path.
How might I use this? Quick Examples:
  • if the student Device type is Phone, then warn them about distracted learning.
  • if the student’s device Language is Espaniol, then route them to the Spanish version.
  • if Student score > 90, then route them to the “High Score” finish branch.
  • if Student score < 60, then route them to the “Game Over” fail branch.
How do you add a Conditional Branch?

Open any Learning Maze or start a new one from your Mazetec Dashboard. Edit an existing Choice’s link or add a one and link to the new (< / >) Conditional Branch and design your logic flow!
