make quiz restart the learning module

If you have Presenter that would be easy because you would simply set the fail action of the quiz to go to the previous slide which could contain your Flash movie. In a standalone quiz, though, that would not be possible.

Thanks for the reply.  I can't tell you how frustrating this is. 

We are a media company and are specialty is creating content, not SCORM quizzes.

Unfortunately, Presenter is based on Power Point, something our client hates, and it lacks the ability to customize the flash player (which our client has spent a considerable sum to do). So using Presenter would undermine the user experience and presentation that the client has worked so hard to achieve.  It would be a step backwards not forwards in this case.

Is there no way to access the source code? How about offering a Non Disclosure Agreement, and let my programmers simply make the changes necessary for this simple function to take place? 

At the very least, is it possible to explain WHY it is not possible to link back to the beginning of the SCORM module from the quizzes? Maybe in that explanation my programmers can gain some inside to another solution.   This ability to link back to the beginning ot the module if a student fails the quiz, is absolutely necessary for this project.

Perhaps you know of an .xml solution, or program that might help?  Any info is helpful at this point.

thanks

Hi William,

One option would be to do what Justin mentioned (publish the quiz to a presentation) and then publish the presentation using a skin that hides the Articulate player.  This would give the end-user the impression that this was only a quiz, but it would have the functionality that you need.

To download the skin, see the "How do you do it?" section in the link below:

Modifying the source code is actually a violation of our EULA. You can pretty easily create a customized player template that would certainly not look like a PowerPoint presentation.

The reason you can't go back to some point in a quiz to retake it is there is no function in Quizmaker that would allow you to do that. Like you said, you can send them to a URL or you can have them close the browser window. Quizmaker was not designed to allow you to retake a quiz within the same session unless it is in a Presenter presentation.

Hey Justin and Brian,

Thanks guys for the replies.  I will look into Presenter deeper and see if your solutions would work for us.

Thanks again.

Great! Let us know if there's anything else we can do to help.
