Hi Gordon,
Because it is a memory game Jmemory is obviously problematic to score and students usually end up getting a low score even if they have made quite a good attempt. This can be discouraging for little ones so I would like to tweak the settings so that they don't see their low score, if possible. I can set the weighting as "no weighting" but the students don't know about the weighting.
I wondered if you had a tip for this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Gordon,
Yes, I suppose that would be better than them getting 9% for doing quite well.......
Is there a way I can alter the settings so that the score doesn't show up atall?

Find this function:
function ShowClue(ItemNum){
if (Locked == true){return;}
State[ItemNum].ClueGiven = true;
ShowMessage(I[ItemNum][2]);
}
then comment out the middle line:
function ShowClue(ItemNum){
if (Locked == true){return;}
// State[ItemNum].ClueGiven = true;
ShowMessage(I[ItemNum][2]);
}

JMemori is based on JMatch, so there are no hints, no clues and no ShowClue function
You could change the JMemori javascript function that calculates the score:
ThisScore = Math.floor((z*100)/s); ThisScore = (Pairs==F.length ? 100 : Math.floor((z*100)/s)); Or if you don't want to get your hands dirty, so as to speak, you could set the score weighting for this quiz to "No weighting" (on QuizPort's "Updating: quiz" page). Then students could see their JMemori scores, but these would not count toward the QuizPort grade.

That's perfect! Thanks very much Gordon. That piece of script stops the quiz from giving a score. The student just sees a "well done" message when he finishes. Much better! Thank you.
Deborah
Correction, it gives a 100% score when student finishes memory game. Even better. Thanks very much.
