Generico - Showing a countdown timer of the time left for a student in a quiz/assignment?

Hi,

I've got a completely newbie question:

Is there a way to create a Generico template that will show a countdown live timer of the time left for a student in a quiz or assignment activity?

Are these details exposed in some way (maybe thought an API) to Generico?

BTW, since some specific students may have user overrides , so different timings, we would like to display the data in that resolution (student-specific).


If it can only be done via a dedicated plugin, please let me know.

Thanks in advance for any info about this issue smile

I think you could do this. I have seen similar things in the past. It would depend on being able to pull the quiz/assignment deadline from the database. Then you would start the countdown timer to finish at that point. The Quiz of course already has a nice countdown timer, even without generico
