Hello folks,

I am Sivaji a computer science engineering student from India/Chennai who has applied for soc2009. My project is all about enhancing existing Drupal Quiz module. The existing quiz module (version 2.x) is fairly simple, it lacks many functionalities (timer, gradebook integration, cvs question import etc) that an academically oriented quiz engine expected to have.

hello geeks,

      Updated proposal is here http://socghop.appspot.com/student_proposal/show/google/gsoc2009/sivaji2...

About Me

I am sivaji from India doing B.E Final year computer science engineering, i have been using drupal for past six months, very much comfortable with its features and community support. I am looking for a chance to contribute something to our drupal community and learn some nifty hacks. My work and area of interest revolves around Ubuntu, PHP, Drupal, Ajax, Jquery, Joomla.

Overview

I would like to quickly create a personality test, using a quiz module or webform module. There will be multiple test questions, each answer will be adequately scored, e.g.:

Do you like tv?

a) no (3 points)
b) yes (0 points)
c) rather no (2 points)
d) rather yes (1 point)

The test will consist of for example 20 questions. I must inform the user about his test results after he has completed it. I also need some statistics about results(each of them) of the test for the admin.

Which module should I use to create this test, Is there any fast way to do that?

What is the plan for Quiz 2 for Drupal 5?

At the moment I am experimenting with Quiz as a system for assessment in the online course I am developing. Assuming I choose quiz over webform or CCK then I will be happy to bug-fix and add functionality which can be contributed into the project. Because of the current state of contributed modules in D6 I think it is better that I stick with D5 for the first rollout of this service allthough I may be convinced otherwise.

Hey gang,
started today on an idea for a new idea for the future of the interface of quiz creation. The current problem is that the interface for quiz right now is really hard to follow and complicated for most users. Result Options are unclear. No body can figure out how to create a personality quiz, etc. This is a first attempt to make the interface much easier to use. And much more straightforward. So far this is basically an idea, and not a reality, but feel free to post your ideas. I can't tell you a timeline on this as my time is very limited, but here is my initial idea for a new interface.

This is only the first few steps, there is more to come.

Step 1: Quiz Creation - The initial create quiz node
Step 2a: Scored Quiz Options (simple summaries) - The default view for scored quizzes
Step 2a: Scored Quiz Options (advanced summaries) - The view that is seen when advanced summaries is checked for a scored quiz
Step 2b: Personality Quiz Options - The default view for a personality quiz
Step 3: Not done yet... More to come

The idea of these new quiz results are great, it enables users to create quizzes on their sites which have a range of goals as opposed to having one goal when taking the quiz. Configuring tests to use this, is confusing, and maybe even broken. There should be an easy to define path to create quizzes with result options instead of pass fail.

I have created this group as an idea group for the quiz module. I hope to toss around new ideas and see what people think about the future of the quiz module (past quiz 2.0 which should be coming relatively soon.) I thought it best to start out the group with a list of ideas that I have had for further development in this module. I have created the list as a wiki page, and I hope that people add their awesome ideas to it. (Please keep the core focus of the quiz module as robust for as many people as possible in mind.)
