How do I clear the quiz results?

May 10, 2012

I have a quiz  that has the Review Quiz option enabled on the results slide.

I have set up each quiz question to allow the user only one attempt to answer and have correct/incorrect feedback at the question level.

I have set up the revist option to reset to initial state for each of the quiz questions because I want the user''s choices to be cleared if the user goes back and tries the quiz again.

Ok so here is the problem - once on  the results screen, the user can click a button to review the quiz or just click the next button to go to the conclusion slide.

If the user skips the review and clicks ahead - then decides to go back and take  the quiz again - all the answer selections they made the first time are removed (this is what I want).

BUT, if they review the quiz results and then go back to retake the course - they just get the quiz results again. How do I clear the quiz results after they have been viewed?

Hi Nancy,

When you add a Retry Quiz button to your results slide, we automatically add an action called Reset results.  It sounds like you don't have that button enabled in your result slide:

Thus, you could add that action as a Trigger in your project to the Next slide button.  Play with that and see if you can get the end-user that you're looking for.

Hi Nancy,

How do you do that? I cannot see such option.

I want the radio button to be cleared in a the second attempt ( I have 2 attempt for each question). Is it possible?

I know that this thread is a little bit older but I have same problem. I am using SL 1 and I created  a course with some different sections. Every section has a final test (not tracked). If the learner passes the single section can go forward in the course, otherwise he needs to repeat the single section.

I created a trigger to disable/enable in the menu the different sections and this works fine, but when the learner doesn't pass the test the results are not deleted (the radio button is not clickable). 

I do not give the possibility to retry the quiz, because the learner need to repeat the course section.

Does anybody can help me to solve this issue?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Silvia,

Did you use the slide property of "reset to initial state"? That would allow the user to revisit the quizzes and try them again but also using the "retry" quiz button would do the same thing. You can determine where it branches too - either the start of the course or the quiz by adjusting the trigger - just make sure the "jump to slide" trigger comes after the "reset results" trigger.
