I too am interested in this feature,
In my specific case, i want to prepare students for a standardized test by having a large bank of old test questions from prior years. I would like for them to be able to take questions one at a time, and immediately after one question is answered it states whether the answer is correct - and if not displays the feedback as to why that choice was incorrect and allows them to choose another choice. once the correct choice is made it procedes to the next question.
This turns a bank of questions into a learning activity in and of itself. It may be that this is a structure that would lend it's self to a completely new type of module - something like "practice exercise" or "self-instructing quiz". This module could draw from the same question banks that are used for the current quiz module.
I don't believe this functionality currently exists. Would anyone else find such a module useful?
) or any number of questions per page(
)?
Thanks very much Martin.
I think that one question at a time is a great, long awaited quiz feature, that deserves a 
.
It is true that settable number of questions per page would be better. It would be better still if Moodle could morph into Lara Croft climb out of the screen and tutor my students will a bull whip.
Is there any one particular file that I might download and add to a 1.4 installation or should I wait for 1.5?

Nice fanfare, Tim
The second question, if this is something that hasn't been implemented yet, is whether this new feature will make it more difficult to use the quiz module to create reading/listening comprehension exercises. I'm saying this because I'm not sure how this new feature would affect one of the main uses I have for this particular module. The ideal structure of a reading/listening comprehension exercise/activity would the following:
. A text (or play button) is presented on a screen.
. After the student has read or listened to the text, s/he clicks a button to get to the next screen where a question about the text is presented. The answer to this question can be one of different modalities: true/false, multiple choice, etc.
. Once this question is answered, the student clicks on a button to get to the next screen and the next question is presented. And so on until all the questions about the given text are exausted. Activity is finished.
Could something like that be possible in the new improved quiz module?

Anyway, could you let us know how this will be implemented?

Here is a thread where Przemyslaw made some similar suggestions

This is perhaps the first (?) request of this type

is about the same topic and includes Przemyslaw's

an my suggestion of the addition of page-breaks ("dummy questions"?).

Martin, did you mean you have submitted code that would allow 1 question per page? I had a poke around the 1.5 code but couldn't see anything that appeared to cover this.
Marcus
Martin,
did this code make it into the distribution yet?
I'm saying this because I have lots of quizzes to introduce (which I would like to
be shown as one question per page) and I don't know whether it would be better to wait for the new mode to be available or introduce them now so that students can at least get access to them and then reformat them later to the most desirable mode of presentation.
Thanks.
