Hey maxim, i implemented a global configuration to allow or disallow add points to multiple attempts in quizzes.
Does the multiple attempts also apply to SCORM packages and Games? When I tested it about a month ago, it only gave points the first time a student attempted a SCORM or game. I would want it to grant points every time they attempt it. Since SCORMS and games don't really grant points, the only points students can accumulate from them are through the "attempts" (Playing them). Having students playing the games (either Moodle games or SCORM packages), they reinforce their formal learning and should be able to earn points. If they want more points, they can play the games over and over again. Currently, you can set a minimal score in the SCORM / Game before it is marked as complete, to prevent kids from just guessing through them to get the points.
Oh that would be just perfect! Thank you so much! You're the best smile
Yeah, i understood you. This is a good debate. In the first release of the version 2, the block added points only one time for each quizz, i changed to add multiple times.
I can implement a global configuration to enable/disable add points for multiple attempts.
Thank you for your reply Willian. Yes, it makes perfect sense in terms of engagement after course is completed. However, one of the situations might be is that student who understood all the material well and have passed a quiz, for example, 100/100 from the first attempt might be not interested in passing the same quiz again, as they already great in this material.
However, those who failed to gain 100 in the quiz for the first time would attempt it again, and, as a result, gain more points than those, who have done great from the first attempt. And as a result those, who failed first attempt and took another one would be higher in a ranking than those who performed better.
Hope I made myself clear :D
But thanks again for the great plugin!
Cheers,
Maxim
Maxim Khasiev, i did it intentionality for one purpose. Maxim Khasiev, i did it for one purpose. When a student finish all activities he do not will gain more points, and then he no will more interact with the course. So, i use the quiz, with multiple attempts, to create an activity like a practice. He can repeat the quiz any time, and still gain more points. This is very good, cause he fixed the content and practice more, and studies more... Do you understood?
Hey Brian Rigwald, i can't do it, cause this is a global configuration.
Hello Willian, thank you for this amazing block! I wanted to ask you one thing: when number of attempts is set for unlimited users keep gaining points for every attempt they're taking. Is there any way to add the highest grade only to the ranking?
Thank you,
Maxim
Willian, I am playing with your block right now. smile I think it is something that I can use. Would there be a way to allow teachers, and not site admins, to edit the point values for items?
Fala Ricardo Caiado, agora que vi que você é brazuca. smile
Cara, acabei de subir uma versão nova do plugin, ta fresquinha. instala ela e vê se da tudo certo.
Hi William,
I'm using Postgres 9

I've added the possibility to the student see her own points. That course have only two students, it's a test. I've changed the behavior, now the plugin works with moodle events, not with cron, now the points are automatically computed.
Hi Willian! Is that what I was suggesting? (I am not sure, since the student names are the same and it is a top 2 ranking.) I am guessing it is, since you added a ";)" to your message, hehehe.
My questions must have inspired you to find time to play with it, eh?

That is a very good idea. Unfortunately, i'm very busy, but i will implement something like this to the new version. You can check the new version on github. https://github.com/willianmano/moodle-block_ranking/tree/VERSION2
