Use PreCheck scores to set Final score variables
Hello, I have simple course with a menu, three modules, and an exit. Each module has a three-question pre-check, the module content, and a three question post test using the same question pools. I...
I don't think the new quiz settings feature is designed to have multiple Prechecks, and Multiple Final Assessments across multiple modules in one course. When I configure the Quiz 7 Results slide to collect from the modules (quiz1/quiz2; quiz3/quiz4; quiz5/quiz6) I would WANT it to do an OR of the precheck/finals for each module. that way only the higher/passing score is passed to the Quiz7 results slide.
However, it appears to be ANDing the pairs and passing total points to Quiz7. So, if the user attempts the precheck and gets 10 of 40 points, then does the final test and gets 40 of 40...Quiz7 scores this as 50 out of 80. I would prefer it to say 40 of 40 for the successful final and dismiss the score of the failed Precheck.
You're correct: The Pre-check function only works with one Pre-check.
For that, you could do this: Combine the three pre-checks into one quiz. (Since there are only 3 questions per topic, I'm assuming they have to answer all 3 correctly to pass each topic.)
Use variables to track which questions the user answers incorrectly, and then use that info to determine what modules they need to complete if they fail the Pre-check.

As for the Final Assessment: I was originally thinking you could use a Results slide that calculated results for the Results slides associated with each module's quiz. Unfortunately, it seems that a Results of Results doesn't let you score only viewed questions.
However, you should be able to use one Results slide to score the final questions.
- Be sure its Quiz Settings connect it to the final-quiz questions but not any of the pre-check questions.
- And be sure it's set to only score viewed questions.
- With those settings, it should show a score based only on the quiz questions the user answered at the end of the required "modules."
Note: Whenever you have a Results slide scoring non-adjacent question slides, you'll need to do extra programming if you want to let the user Review the quiz.
