JazzQuiz
What is it?
JazzQuiz is designed to be used in face-to-face lessons. The teacher may plan questions in advance, but can also easily improvise on the fly.
Write your question on the blackboard, and select an appropriate question type from the dropdown menu. Several improvise questions will already be included: Short answer, multichoice (3, 4 & 5) and true/false. These are put in the default question category for the activity. If you want to add your own improvise questions, simply add them in that category and prefix their names with {IMPROV} like the default ones.
During the lesson, the teacher starts the quiz. Students can now connect to this quiz.
Once the teacher is satisfied that all students have connected to the quiz, they can click on Start Quiz
Depending on the question settings the question will end automatically, or will need to be ended via the instructor's
End question button. The teacher can start a vote, with the selected responses, which students can answer.
The teacher can, at a later date, go back through the results and, for each question, see exactly what answer each
student gave. The repolls are treated as separate questions, and you will get a correct order in the review page.

The original plugin, Realtime Quiz, was written by Davo Smith: <moodle@davosmith.co.uk>
Afterwards came ActiveQuiz, funded by an educational innovation grant given to the Medical school, the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
The plugin was rewritten to integrate the core Moodle question engine. John Hoopes: <john.z.hoopes@gmail.com>
JazzQuiz is a fork of ActiveQuiz, intended for different use cases. Initial development 2017-2018 was funded in part by Norgesuniversitetet (grant no. P34/2017) and undertaken by NTNU - Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

I'll think about it, if it might be feasible to extend the scope in a future version, but it won't be soon.
Have you tested with that version of moodle? Are there plans to support this version?
Yes, it was my intention to keep it up to date, and I think it unlikely that it does not work with 3.9 without too much trouble, but because of the pandemic, I find myself not using JazzQuiz this year. I'll have a look and see if I can do some testing and a release next week.
Yes, 2020 wasn't the best of years, was it? Better days ahead hopefully.
Thank you and as the French say, "bon courage"!
I need to talk to another developer before I make an official release, but hopefully in a few days.
About deletion of reports, that will probably have to wait, but I'll look into it.
