Branching Scenario
Branching Scenario builds an interactive story where the student makes decisions at each step, with every choice leading to different branches and endings. The AI generates the full decision tree: content nodes, decision points, and closing screens.
AI-generated configuration
| Setting | Description | Possible values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| Options per decision point | How many choices each decision point offers. | 2 or more (minimum: 2; no documented cap: the requested amount is generated exactly) | 2 to 4 when no amount is requested |
| Number of endings | Distinct endings reachable through different decision paths. | As requested (e.g. three differentiated endings) | Inferred from the scenario |
| Start and end screen titles | Titles of the initial screen and the final screens. | Generated text | Configured |
| Image position per node | Side of the content node where the generated image is placed. | Left / Right | Varies per node |
Generated content
- Content nodes, each with its text and — when image generation is enabled — its generated image placed to the left or the right.
- Decision points with two or more options, each leading to different branches and consequences.
- Endings with their closing screens, each consistent with the outcome reached.
- The start screen and end screen titles.
Rules and behavior
- This type is one of the eight that respect the Generate images option of the AI modal: with the option enabled, content nodes carry generated images; with it disabled, nodes come out without images, and that is not a failure.
- The minimum per decision point is two options; there is no documented cap, so a high requested amount (e.g. twenty-five options per decision) is generated in full, without trimming.
- Branches reflect the accumulated effect of the decisions taken along the path.
- When distinct endings are requested, each must be reachable through a different decision path and have its own coherent closing screen.
Example prompts
Without syllabus
A decision scenario where each choice leads to different consequences:
I need an H5P branching scenario for the cybersecurity course: the student receives a suspicious email at work and must decide what to do at each step: open it, verify the sender, report it, or click the link. Each decision must lead to different consequences.
A scenario with three explicitly distinct endings reached through different paths:
Prepare an H5P branching scenario on veterinary emergency care: a dog arrives with poisoning symptoms and the student makes triage and treatment decisions. I want three distinct endings: full recovery, recovery with sequelae, and a fatal outcome.
A scenario where every decision point offers exactly two options:
I want an H5P branching scenario for the business negotiation course where each decision has only two options: concede or hold the position, at three moments of a contract negotiation.
With syllabus
A practical decision scenario anchored to unit 2 of the uploaded syllabus:
I need an H5P branching scenario based on unit 2 of the syllabus I uploaded: the student faces a practical situation from that unit's topic and must decide what to do at each step, with each decision leading to different consequences as explained in that unit.
A scenario on topic 4 with three distinct endings — optimal, partial, and failed:
Prepare an H5P branching scenario on topic 4 of the document I uploaded, where the student makes decisions applying what that topic teaches. I want three distinct endings: optimal result, partial result, and failed result.
A scenario covering the whole document with twenty-five options at every decision point:
Make me an H5P branching scenario that goes through the whole document I uploaded, where in every situation the student has twenty-five different ways to respond.
