The sections are created on the edit quiz page, and then appear in the
navigation panel when the quiz is being attempted to help students find
their way around.
The 'Shuffle questions' setting has been moved from being per-quiz
to being a per-section.
This commit is actually the joint work of Mahmoud Kassaei and Tim Hunt
from The Open University. We could only use one persons name for the
commit and this time Mahmoud gets the credit/blame.
This feature is designed for use on pracice or formative quizzes.
It is available for quizzes that use Interactive or Immediate feedback
behaviour.
If the teacher turns this on in the quiz settings, then once a student
has finished a question, they get a 'Redo question' button beside the
question. If they click it, then the question they finished is replaced
by a new one so they can try again to practise that particul skill or
bit of knowledge a bit more.
When randomisation is involved, the studnets will be given a question or
variant that they have not seen before if possible.
Now this setting type is available, it is a better UI.
This required a new setting class
admin_setting_configduration_with_advanced.
Also, I took the liberty of shortening the default auto-save delay to 1
minute, and re-wording the description of that setting, now that it can
be changed to any value.
1. There is a new admin setting to control whether this feature is
enabled. The admin can set the auto-save frequency to 1, 2 or 5 minutes,
or disable it.
2. When autosave is enabled, there is code in the quiz that monitors the
main quiz form, and does an ajax save call at the given frequency when
changes are being made by the student.
3. The ajax saves go to a new script that calls the question engine to
do the work.
4. To avoid simultaneous autosave + submit and finish, the auto-save
system shuts down shortly before time expires in a timed quiz.
