<p align="center"><b>The Maximum Number of Attempts (by a Student)</b></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This value determines the maximum number of attempts a Student has
|
|
in aswering <b>any</b> of the questions in the lesson. In the case of questions
|
|
which do not provide the answer, for example Short Answer
|
|
and Numerical questions, this value provides a necessary <i>escape routine</i> to
|
|
the next page in the lesson. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The default value is 5. Smaller values may discourage the student
|
|
from thinking about the questions. Larger values may lead to more
|
|
frustration.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Setting this value to one gives the students just one chance to answer each
|
|
question. This gives a similar type of assignment to the Quiz module except
|
|
that the questions are presented on individual pages.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that this value is global parameter and that it applies to all the
|
|
questions in the lesson regardless of their type.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that this parameter does <b>not</b> apply to teachers checking
|
|
of questions or navigating through the lesson. Checking the number of attempts
|
|
relies on values stored in the database and question attempts by teachers are
|
|
not recorded. The teacher should after all know the answers!</p>
