Previous and next links in the quiz: a change of heart

Previously ... Oh dear. Pun not intended. Let me try again.

In the past, people have complained that the during a quiz attempt, there is only a Next button, and not Previous, and that it is more common in this sort of user interfact to have both buttons.

And, I have argued that we intentionally only included one button, in order to simplicy the user interface as much as possbile.

Well, now we are in the process of redesigning the OU theme, and we want to add both previous and next buttons in the quiz (and the proposed design makes that look nice). I am wondering, should I put that code into standard Moodle too?

I am inclined to think yes. In Moodle core the forum and book activities have both previous and next links, and consistency is good.

Please let me know what you think about this.

I think that Quiz should have a settings option for Jobs or Gates mouse.

Here is what it might look like:


First page of the quiz

Middle page of the quiz

Last page of the quiz



First page of the review (if you switch from the default review everything on one page)

Middle


Last

Tracker issue is MDL-52738. (If you don't like this, then don't worry about the fact I have put some code up for peer review. I will only submit it for integration if the consensus here is that this is a good change.)

Thanks Mary, Emma, Hugo and John.

Marcus, what planet are you from? 眨眼

I have now submitted MDL-52738 for integration, so it should become part of Moodle 3.1 when that is released.

Thanks for doing this, Tim.  It makes great sense.  Does MDL-52738 need voting or will it be a "done deal" for Moodle 3.1?

A key field in the Tracker is 'Status'.

'Waiting for integration review' means that it is going to go through final reivew this week or next week, and all being well it will be accepted, and then it is a done deal.

So, by this point, voting will not make a lot of difference, but it can't hurt.
