I am creating a quiz that is embedded in a presentation. I want to make it so that the quiz can be attempted only once.
I cannot find the set of parameters in the quiz/presentation that will force this. No matter what I do it seems that the user can complete the quiz, go back to the presenter content and retake the quiz.
Further I would like to prevent the user from taking the quiz on future views of the presentation (this is launching from a LMS).
Is there not a way to make this happen or am I missing some critical setting?
If you set it in the quiz placeholder to only once it should only be able to be took once, in your lms this is different and it is best to set attempts to one for the whole course and although they will be able to retake the quiz the score will not get logged
I have the following parameters set for the quiz in Presenter:
On Passing Finish goes to Next Slide
On Failing Finish goes to Next Slide
Allow user to leave Quiz after completion
User may view slides after attempting quiz
User may attempt quiz just once
This forces the user to complete the quiz once entering, but having completed the quiz the user can view slides in the presentation, then take the quiz again from scratch.
Obviously this is not the behaviour I intended (which was that they are allowed to take the quiz just once, and after taking review the material as much as they wish.
So from what I can discern "User may attempt quiz just once" should either prevent the user from even entering the quiz again or it should allow entry and review of the answers provided only.
It seems to do neither.
Am I misinterpreting what this setting should do -- or does it just not work?
it works fine when we upload it to our lms, but to be honest it never worked when we published to web or tested locally, I can give you a link to courses we have running now using this setting now
Please be sure to set up your player template to Prompt on resume. This will ensure learners can view the quiz only one time. It will work with and without an LMS.
So David's information turned out to be the key. Although I can only get it work with the LMS (but that was my goal anyway so I am not going to pursue it any further).

Is anybody using this setting in real life?

Hi Brian,
Please be sure to set up your player template to Prompt on resume. This will ensure learners can view the quiz only one time. It will work with and without an LMS.
Here's an article that documents the steps.
May have been the resume cannot remember if we had it selected or not when we were testing

Thanks to all.
