Allow some students to review their quiz responses but not others

Hi all,

Is it possible to allow only certain students to review their quiz responses and not others?  I wish to allow those students that have failed the quiz the opportunity to review their quiz, but not those students who have passed.  I presume that restrictions set  on the quiz settings page refers to restrictions imposed on  undertaking the quiz but not to review.

Suppose your quiz is called 'Quiz A'.

In the quiz settings:

  • Common module settings --> ID number: 'quizA'.

In the gradebook setup:

  • Add a grade item named 'Quiz A w/o review' with calculation =[ [quizA] ] (no space between brackets).

In the quiz settings:

  • Timing --> Close the quiz: closing time ☑ Enable.
  • Review options -->
    • During the attempt: ☑ Enable all or some 
    • Immediately after the attempt: ☐ Uncheck all
    • Later, while the quiz is still open: ☐ Uncheck all
    • After the quiz is closed: ☑ Enable all or some
  • Restrict access --> Access restrictions:
    Student [must] match [any] of the following
    Grade: Quiz A w/o review
    ☑ must be < pass/fail grade
    or
    Student [must not] match the following
    Grade: Quiz A w/o review
    ☐ must be ≥ leave blank
    ☐ must be < leave blank

Results

  • Until the closing time of the quiz, no student can review his quiz.
  • After the closing time of the quiz, students whose mark is lower than the pass/fail grade can review their quiz and students whose mark is higher than the pass/fail mark can not access their quiz for review.

Note

In the gradebook, set the weight of 'Quiz A' to zero and set the weight of 'Quiz A w/o review' to the desired value.

Thank you Dominique ... interesting way to achieve this.  I had worked out that the post quiz review options were capable of being selectively applied but I was  manually adding each student.  Your method seems much neater.
