View previously chosen answers when retrying quiz
Hi, I am creating a course for a client that has a quiz in it. When the customer fails the quiz he has to retake it, till he passes. Everything works fine, but the client wants the functionallity, that the customer sees if the answer he has chosen priviouly was correct or incorrect, while retaking the quiz. Also the chosen answers should be remembered over multiple retries. For example:
One question with four answers, A, B, C, D. B & D is correct. On the first try the customer picks A and fails the test. He hast to retake it. When retaking the question a red "x" indicates that answer A was wrong. Now the picks B, fails again and has to retake. Now there is a red "x" on A and a green checkmark on B, he has to retake, etc.
Is there a functionallity or workaround to achive this?
Thanks in advance!
There's no built-in functionality for that.
It could be done by tracking answers with variables and using triggers to show the appropriate red X or green check with conditions based on the associated variables. However, that would only work with shuffling turned off. (If the responses are shuffled, you won't be able to place the X's and checks next to the corresponding responses.)
If you decide to try it, here's the User Guide info on trigger conditions and variables:

IMHO, the better option would be if you could convince the client that it's not worth the effort. After all, feedback could be given when the user answers each question and/or during a review.
Thanks. I thought about using triggers and variables but that would mean creating 50+ variables. Guess you are right, its not worth the effort. Thanks a lot for your answer
