CourseBuilder Questions

[HeleneH]

Hello, i have just added the coursebuilder extension and am really excited
about using it. I wondered whether anyone could answer a couple of questions i
have about its functionality.

1.) Is it possible to insert a reveal the answer button per question
2) Is is possible to only check the answers once the whole quiz has been
completed.
3) Is it possible to add alt text descriptions to images.

As a secondary question how hard will it be to implement this. I have
intermediate HTML skills and am a quick learner but at the moment am a little
daunted!

Any help would be very much

> 1.) Is it possible to insert a reveal the answer button per question

You can have feedback for every choice if you want to. When I used it, I
had "Good Job!" by the correct answer and "Sorry, the answer is blah" by the
incorrect ones. But I had limited their attempts so it wasn't possible to
go back and select the correct one and have it count.

Surely. Use something like this:

<FORM ACTION="<%=MM_editAction%>" METHOD="POST" NAME="submitscores"
id="submitscores"
onsubmit="MM_callJS('document.submitscores.score.v alue=G01.score+G02.score+G03.score+G04.score+G05.s core+G06.score+G07.score+G08.score+G09.score+G10.s core')">
<input name="score" type="hidden" />
<input name="StudentID" type="hidden" id="StudentID" value="<%=
Session("StudentID") %>" />
<input name="QuizNumber" type="hidden" id="QuizNumber" value="6" />
<input name="QuizName" type="hidden" id="QuizName" value="Quiz 1" />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Send Score"
onclick="recordScore(this)" />
<input type="hidden" name="MM_insert" value="submitscores">
</form>

the JS functio n adds the answer of each question together where they
received a point for a correct response and zero for incorrect. Then the
score was associated with the Student ID and their score for that test was
recorded in a database.

Just like any image, I would think.

You have to play with it a little bit .. then you'll see what the Action
Manager does and it's pretty easy once you try a couple of dry runs.
