I'm currently evaluating various course authoring tools. I just started to look at CourseLab.

Just a quick question about CourseLab. I need to create a quiz of maybe 10 questions on a page. I would like to block a student from moving forward until a quiz is passed with 7 out of 10 questions answered correctly or something like that. Is there a way within CourseLab to build in this type of behavior?

Any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Easy
Just set up a variable and pass it a point for each correct question answered.
you can then do what you like using that variable as a trigger, let them progress if the score is OK or even regress them to a previous point.
 

Hi, Richard,

you can do it using variables and Test object events (as mentioned by Nick) or there is other way: you can define additional objective in the module - especially for this test - and control its score using IF SCORE action on every question answered (again using events). In fact, there is a handful of other ways to do the same, but these two seems to be simplest.  

Thank you for the information.

Interesting...a number of course authoring tools that I have evaluated can not build this kind of sequencing behavior. It seems like this would be useful behavior for an elearning course. Maybe LMS interaction is used in some cases.  

If you want to get really heavy weight sequencing control there is always the task controller. This lets you set trigger points to give some variable navigation through a module.

It will do much the same as the ideas above but is possibly easier to set up multi-conditional events. If you play with it you'll appreciate the possibly above. It's probably the most complex tool in Courselab but the most powerful.  

This is the complex sequencing you hear about in the SCORM 2004 standard.
Many commercial tools are still using 1.2 and AICC and are aimed at more corporate markets who are more concerned with shove and dump training.
