Various Exam Enhancements

After collecting feedback from various users we have collated the following enhancements to the exams module:

  • The exam module should optionally, notify examiners when:
    • An exam has been submitted by the examinee
    • An examinee has passed or failed if automatically marked
    • when an exam closes if there are unattempted or unsubmitted exams.
  • The exam module should notify examinees when results become available.
  • The option to group questions by question category when randomly selectin from the question bank.
  • The option to specify a time limit for how long an examinee has to write an exam once it is opened. 
  • The ability to randomise the question selection per examinee.
  • The ability to automatically re-issue exams up to a set limit when an exam has failed (e.g. three attempts). This should have the option as per the point above to randomise questions on each re-issue.
  • The ability to add exams to courses.
  • When a recency is updated by passing an exam a link should be generated to that person's exam results summary, as check forms currently do.
  • Add filters to exam results summary to allow filtering by exam date, exam category, exam status (archived or not).
  • Add filters to personnel results summary for base, department,  and pass/fail/unattempted.

    Thanks @Mike Thompson for adding this, it is definitely a lot more logical way of correcting an answer if the question is edited and corrected through dispute as you say it automatically replaces the question with the new version instead of creating a new exam issue.

    Additional feedback from Starlite:

    Questions which have been edited through a dispute should not be saved in the exam setup. Future issues of the exam should automatically replace the question with the new version.

    I would like to add to the list above the option to set filters for Exam Markers on the notifications for questions audits.
