Yes, you can do this as follows

  1. go to the "Edit quizzes" page for any of your QuizPort activities
  2. select "Access control" from the "Show columns" drop-down menu
  3. if necessary, edit one of the quizzes to make sure its "Delay 3" setting is set to the value you want to apply to all the other QuizPort quizzes
  4. on the "Edit Quizz" page, select the checkbox at the top of the "Delay 3" column
  5. in the "Default" column, select a quiz with the desired "Delay 3" setting
  6. at the bottom of the page, select "Apply selected default values", and then select "Quizzes matching the following filters
  7. click the "Go" button

OK, you've done it. All the quizzes in all the QuizPorts in that course now use the new "Delay 3" setting.

Note that if you want to apply this setting to all quizzes in all QuizPort in the whole site, you can do that too. The instructions are the same as above, except that after step 6, you select "All" from the "Course" filter.

The resume button on the entry page for a QuizPort will allow students to resume their work from where they left off last time. For example, if they stopped halfway through quiz 4 in a unit of 8 quizzes, then the resume buton will let them resume from quiz 4 without having to redo quizzes 1, 2 and 3.

If you want to let them attempt the quizzes any number of times, then set the "Attempts allowed" setting to "Unlimited attempts" on both the QuizPort activity settings page and each quiz's settings pages.

If you want to force students to do the quizzes in order the first time, but once they have done completed the activity give them free, unfettered access to the quizzes, then set the QuizPort activity's "Allow free access" setting to something other than "No".

enjoy!
