Dear Michael,
to set the passing score:
In the grader report pass grades are highlighted in green and fail grades in red.
In the course, students will see in the completion activity box a green thick 
if the quiz is passed or a red cross if they failed
.
really thanks for your gr8 reply, it's so useful for me :D
thankssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
another thing i stuck in,
is there any way to use the passing score while i'm setting up the completion tracking in the quiz itself , as you can see below there is only 2 option student must review or student must recive grade. i need to use the passing score in it.
Michael MIchael -if you are using 2.8 as you say you are then you should see the grade to pass option - as in here:
Can you confirm which version of Moodle you are using? When you go to that page and click "Moodle docs for this page" at the bottom of the screen, which documentation version number does it give?
Michael, you have to set the completion tracking in the quiz ticking the "Require grade" checkbox (actually we tick the "Require view" checkbox too) and then set the passing score in the Grader report.
In Moodle 2.8 we don't tick the "Require passing grade" checkbox in the quiz, since we noticed that, if we do so, students get a blue tick in the completion activity box only if pass the quiz - if they fail, the checkbox remains blank as if the quiz has never been attempted.
Our students (and also teachers and tutors) used to see the green tick or the red cross in the completion activity box in Moodle 2.6, so we decided to keep the same kind of visual feedback.
So...setting a require passing grade does the opposite of what it should? If I require another activity to restrict access unless they have a passing score it won't work? That may actually be what I'm seeing right now. The grade shows as passed in the gradebook as passed but the course completion just shows a blue check. And the next activity won't let anyone in, even though they have passed. Over the past week I set up over 150 courses to do this...
I found that you have to require a grade and require a passing grade for it to work. And, of course, you have to set the grade to pass. And then you get the red X and green check.
In 2.7 you can use the settings I wrote on my first reply and set the passing score: we are using those settings both in 2.6 and 2.8.
Mary,
I have also done some experiments and looked at tracker issues where you replied. Also at the answers in this discussion and how red crosses and green ticks should appear.
I did my experiments in http://school.demo.moodle.net/mod/quiz/view.php?id=723
Basically my confusion is on the activity completion setting 'Require passing grade'.
I am using Moodle 3 (same as school.demo.net) and have done the following.
Scenario 1
a. 'Grade to pass' set in Grade in quiz settings
b. Activity completion:
- Student must receive a grade to complete this activity
- Require passing grade
This results in only green tick boxes for those who got the passing grade.
My expectation would be that you would have red crosses for those who have attempted but failed?
In this discussion it's also mentioned as a blue tickbox instead of green?
Scenario 2
a. 'Grade to pass' set in Grade in quiz settings
b. Activity completion:
- Student must receive a grade to complete this activity
(to be clear here I left 'Require passing grade' unticked)
This results in green tick boxes for those who got the passing grade and red crosses for those who attempted but failed.
This is the behaviour I want but it is strange to me that I would have to leave to 'Require passing grade' unticked.
Hi Peter, Thanks for the testing and explanation, however, in scenario 2 the activity would be considered as complete even if the user has not received the passing grade.
So if you had 2 quizzes and course completion was set to expect both quizzes to be complete they would show as completed the course even if they failed both the assessments.
Is there any way around this whilst still keeping the red cross and green tick?
No, there is no way around this. If you want red crosses, the activity must be considered complete.
Can you not find some other way to do the course completion. E.g. requrie a certain grade for each quiz, rather than just requiring that the quiz is complete.
