Quiz 4 released

Quiz 4 has now been released! Thanks to all of you who have contributed feature requests, bug reports, patches and more!

Quiz 4 has many use-cases, but we have focused on making Quiz a better e-learning tool. We have a new scoring system, a new multichoice module and a new mode "repeat until correct".

The user experience for Quiz authors have been improved in many ways. It is a lot easier to add questions to a quiz. We have a new manage questions interface and a new fieldset "add to quiz" in the node-forms for each question type. We have also tried to make it easier and faster to create multiple quizzes. All settings have been placed in fieldsets and the author can mark a checkbox to have quiz remember his settings for the next Quiz he creates.

We have a brand new results browser making it a lot easier for authors to handle quiz results. It has six different filters, several sort options and it uses ajax to update the results table.

There is a new question type called scale. Scale is a first step towards making quiz a survey tool. We still needs to add better result statistics in order to make full use of the scale module, but it can be nice to add a scale question to your quizzes in order to get feedback on your courses.

We have added support for the wysiwyg module, and we've made it easier to use wysiwyg editors in the multichoice alternatives as well as in questions of all types.

All the reported bugs in Quiz 3 have been fixed, and we will try to keep the response time on important bug reports low. A lot of non reported stability problems have also been fixed, and we hope that Quiz 4 will provide a good and stable user experience.

Quiz 4 is far from perfect. There is still a lot of things we want to do with it. We hope we'll get financing to add better statistics, new question types, better apis, refactoring the code, improved interface for manually scoring questions, better looking default theme, support for having multiple questions on one page, the list is long...

But we think Quiz 4 is a step in the right direction, and hope it will be used on many L(C)MS sites in the future!
