• Exam availability must be longer than the exam duration.

• The value of the field "When the time is up" is recommended to set it to "There is a grace period to send the quiz, but not to answer".

• Choose a large "Grace Period to Submit quiz". For example5 minutes.

• The AVAILABILITY TIME of the exam (QUIZ START TIME and QUIZ CLOSING TIME) MUST BE GREATER THAN THE EXAM DURATION (TIME LIMIT).

• EXAMPLE:

  • QUIZ start time> 17:00.

  • End time of the QUIZ> 18:00.

  • TIME LIMIT> 40 minutes.

• The correct way would be to configure "behavior of the questions> delayed feedback" and adjust "Revised d'intents" in the appropriate way
• In the following screenshot is veu an exemple in the Which student does not see the answers of the questioner in cap moment. The teacher can adjust the parameters that are convenient.

START AND END OF THE SCALED QUIZ. 

If you have several groups of students (50 students, for example in several groups A, B and C). Try not to start at the same time in all three groups.

• For example it would be convenient to space them at least 5 minutes. 9:00, 9:05, 9:10.

• The quizs to be developed should not be accumulated at peak connection times (10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.), but distributed throughout the day.

• Do not plan exams at night hours from 0:00 to 7:00 for possible maintenance and backup of the systems.

• It is convenient to page the quizs with 5 questions on each page.

• Navigation Method > Free.

• Tell the student not to open multiple browser tabs or windows. THE STUDENT MAY LOSE THE ANSWERS.

It is possible to establish "User Exceptions" and increase the time of the quiz for the student, add an attempt, change the date to do the quiz.

You can add a new attempt to students who have not submitted and configure the behavior of the quiz questions with the parameter "Each attempt is based on the previous one". Previously it would be convenient to contact the student to arrange the delivery.

 If during the completion of a quiz the student notifies the teacher that he or she has had a problem with the connection and the session is blocked, the teacher can unlock the session instantly so that the student can continue with the connection.

It is convenient to tell students to open ONLY ONE VIRTUAL Classroom TAB. If they open multiple Moodle sessions in multiple tabs or different browsers it can cause problems taking the quiz, although, apparently they don't detect an error.

The teacher should tell to the student that "NEVER open the same quiz that you are doing in more than one tab, YOU CAN LOSE THE ANSWERS".

In an exam performed in Virtual Classroom there are many variables that do not depend on the application but that obviously influence it and cannot be controlled.

• User (student) connection quality.
• Although not usual, the IPs provided by the telecommunications company may change.
• Validation system.
• If the user change the browser during the exam.

SOLUTION: The teacher can "Cancel Attempt" and "Open Attempt" to students as he sees fit.

The difference between open time and closing time must be greater than the time limit, keep in mind that the student may suffer a delay in access beyond his or her control. Thus, the student who enters late, will be expected to deliver at the end of the time limit, but will not be able to deliver the exam because it is already closed.

Example of badly configured quiz:

• Open quiz: 9.00
• Close quiz: 10:00
• Time limit: 1 hour

Example of well configured quiz:

• Open quiz: 9.00
• Close quiz: 10:30
• Time limit: 1 hour

You cannot check whether it is true or not. In "quiz records" you can see when the student starts an attempt, if he reaches the "Summary of the attempt" screen and if he has delivered.

It is not reflected if there has been a outage or any other reason.

The following screenshot is an example of an internet connection cut by a student taking a quiz.

In the course page "Activate edition" and "Edit > Edit settings" of the quiz we want to change the date. Change the dates "Open quiz" and "Close the quiz".

Mobile devices with Android and iOS kill sessions by power configuration. So WE RECOMMEND A COMPUTER.

In the event that a student has been found to have a problem with the completion of the quiz and the session has ended, there is the possibility that teachers will restart the session. To do this, before the completion period of the quiz, you must access it, review attempts and allow students with problems another attempt. If, on the other hand, the teacher wishes to find out more about the student’s problem in order to decide to restart the attempt or to examine the student for another type of test, he or she may request a detailed report of what happened with the following data.

Data:

• Faculty
• Name and code of subject-group
• Name of quiz
• Day and time of problem
• Description of Problem
• Screenshot of problem
• Screen
• URL of error
• Example of affected student

Put zero score on the value of the quiz question and recalculate the ratings.

The beginning and end of a quiz load the system. Students should not press the quiz at the same time.
It would be better, as far as possible, three quizs of 20 people spaced their start, for example, 5 minutes.

 Enter the quiz and click on the link "Attempts: x attempts", where x is the number of students who have started taking the quiz at that time.
On the page that opens you can refresh every 15 minutes (F5 in Windows, Command + R Mac, Ctrl + F5 Linux) to see the students who are finishing the attempt.
If you click on "Review of attempt" of a student you can see the questions that have been answered.

If any student cannot enter, they can create a new attempt for the students that have not been able to do it from "User Exceptions".
On the exceptions page you can upload the number of attempts to the student (it would go from 1 to 2) and also change the date of "Open" and "Close quiz".

The exam is not downloaded to the computer. It runs on the Server. There must be an Internet connection to make the attempt.

The time shown in the "time spent" column is the sum of the time it has taken the student to solve and the time it takes to reach the Server. It is important to note that once the exam time has passed the student cannot answer any more questions.
