This is a group to discuss developments in the quiz module and it's development. This group hopes to be a place to discuss new exciting ideas and implementations.
An IRC channel for elearning-related Drupal projects
I have created #drupal-elearning - a channel for elearning-related projects. I hope this channel will see more traffic than channels focused on single projects. Welcome in! :) Druplicon is (hopefully) on it's way.
Read moreAnnouncing Certify - a module for awarding PDF certificates in online courses
Certify is a new module for awarding and generating PDF certificates to students based on a set of criterias. Currently supports quizzes from the quiz module and book pages from the book module.
The module require Quiz v4+, Book and pdftk installed on the web server.
It does not have a release yet (it's still rough around the edges and not recommended for production), but has working code in CVS. So feel free to try it out, file issues or submit patches. :)
Read moreSupport?
Hi,
The module is great!
First, I have a support issue. I get the following error:
user warning: Table 'cyneerco_drp1.quiz_node_results_answers' doesn't exist query: SELECT SUM(points_awarded) FROM (quiz_node_results_answers) WHERE result_id = 5 in /home3/cyneerco/public_html/dojo/modules/quiz/quiz.pages.inc on line 214.
Second, I think it would be nice to have a question "template", where test creators can easily just type in problems. I know there are multiple choice and the such, but it would be nice to have a quick and dirty template.
Just a few thoughts,
DG Kim
Quiz starts to slow down when many simultaneous users are taking the quiz.
I'm just wondering who have experience using Quiz with many simultaneous users? We are using Quiz in our local Drupal intranet as a 'Test Simulator'. It starts to slow down when 30 and up users are using it. Clicking on the 'Next' button to go to the next question takes more time as more users are logged in. (takes 5-10 seconds to display the next question, sometimes hang). We are running Ubuntu Server 10.04 on an IBM x3200 M3 with 4Gb memory. As sivaji pointed out to me that this is MySQL problem, I followed his recommendation.
Read moreContact form in Quiz
Hi, love the module!
I was wondering if there was a known way to add a contact info collection form within the flow of the quiz or on the result page of a quiz? This is one of the only features missing in order to use the Quiz module as a contest/promotion engine on my site.
I'm used to creating custom node types with cck to achieve create contact info forms, but I'd like to blend that with the functionality of the Quiz module.

Send Email Notification
Hi,
Using Quiz module I am developing an online exam portal. I am able to install configure the module.
I am looking for a funtionality where I send email notification to student (exam taker) to take the exam(quiz). The email notification should contain a link of a particular Exam(quiz). Exam taker (student) can just click the link and take the exam, no need for his/her to login to the portal to take the exam.
I googled and searched in Drupal website. May be I am searching with using wrong search string.
Thank you

Hi Folks,
You may have seen some of my earlier posts. I am a Drupal newbie and have been presented with an opportunity to do some work for a research project at UBC.
I put Drupal on the table and the are excited about using this due to the future possibilities, however phase one is a very low'ish tech solution to gather information from a user via some kind of questionnaire/form interface and store/present this back as a summary which is printable, savable, accessible.
Read moreCustom Quiz results View
Hi there,
I love the new 4 version Quiz, it is just what I need for the school I work for. But I am stuggeling with Views integration. What I want is a custom results report, with colums: full name (user), departement, quiz name, start date, quiz score. Full name and departement are profile fields.
When I make a new view with Quiz as view base, only user id is selectable as field in the results table, not username. I tried relations but the user and profile nodes are not selectable. Am I doing something wrong or is it just not possible with the current version?

You may have seem some of my posts recently, I know you are a buys man, wondered if you might offer some pointers in getting started with quiz.
I have installed quiz and set up my multiple choice questions the way I want. There are a few issues I need assistance with, bearing in mind I am a Drupal newbie!
First thing to note is that I am using quiz more as a survey, to collect information, rather than a quiz, but I still think it can do the job, I hope you agree!

Hey folks,
I have posted here already and had good answer back to get me started.
I am pretty new to the whole Drupal thing, so I am trying to use the basics and simplest method to achieve what I want, I am sure that Quiz is the way to go.
Couple of questions, feedback or point to where I get some documentation or advice would be great:
My structure is as follows, not sure if this would be best done as multiple quizzes or one quiz with many sections, not even sure if that is possible, this is the structure I am trying to achieve:
-Indicator 1 (Perhaps an individual quiz)

Hi folks,
I am currently looking at creating a quiz/questionainre to be completed by people within a government body.
This full quiz will be a list of 15 indicators, I see these as being mini quizes if you like, each indicator (mini quiz) will have somewhere between 4 and 6 questions attached, each question has 4 possible answers.
Answers will be: yes, yes partially, no and no partially, and for each different questions these answers will have a differnet value attached. (in orderto create feedback sumary).
Read moreNeed dynamically created vocabulary quiz
Hi,
I'm working on a language learning website in Drupal and it looks like the Quiz module is perfect for a lot of the quizzes I want to offer. However, I want to be able to create vocabulary lists and then have users take a quiz for either all or a set number of words.
Functionality
- Create lists of nodes (probably just use nodequeue module)
- Create a quiz that takes the following parameters
- List/Nodequeue to generate questions from
- How many questions to generate from the list (Or check off "All")
- What type(s) of question to use (The question will be able to take a node such as avocabulary node and generate a question)
Test Yourself Alpha 1 is out!
Test Yourself is a Quiz add-on making quiz-taking more pleasant! It is a lot faster and it should look better than the default quiz theme.
The Alpha 1 version is only compatible with multichoice questions, and does not support all quiz features, but it is still useful and make self tests look and perform well.
Read moreDoes the Certify feature in the TODO.txt file mean generating certificates for the user?
Hi,
We are evaluating Quiz as part of a solution we are integrating using Drupal. Part of our requirements are generating a certificate for the user taking the quiz (preferably as a PDF) that they can download/print once they have successfully passed the quiz.
I noticed that there's a TODO item called "Certify", does this intend to implement the above described feature?
If yes we are willing to sponsor the development of this feature.
Please get in touch with me.
Thanks

Read moreManaging fields in quiz version 4
We are developing a website to manage quizzes, we are using:
* Drupal 6.17
* Quiz module version 4.0-rc4
and everything it's going fine, the only problem we have at this moment is that we need to add a image-field as a first field to fill, but we don't know how to keep the image field in this particular position.
Since when we try to order all the fields in the Field Management to put them in the order we want, the image-field that we just added, every time appears in the last position.
So the question is how can we keep the image-field in the first position?
