Usage

Teachers want to conduct the final examination of a course with several hundred students in a lecture hall. For this purpose, an offline quiz is created in a Moodle course and the quiz is filled with questions from the question bank. To make copying more difficult, the lecturers decide to create several groups in the offline quiz that contain different questions. The forms are then generated, downloaded and printed out.

Two forms are handed out to students during the exam: the questionnaire (contains the questions and answer options) and the corresponding answer sheet (form with boxes to tick the selected answers). After the exam, all answer sheets are scanned and uploaded in the offline quiz of the Moodle course for evaluation.
Forms that could not be automatically evaluated by the system, e.g. because the ID number was incorrectly ticked or ticks or crossed out ticks are unclear, must be corrected by the teachers in the offline quiz.
Teachers can now allow students to view their exams online, where they can, for example, see the points they have achieved and check that their ticks have been recognized.

Note: The question types multiple choice, description and all-or-nothing multiple choice are currently supported. Questionnaires can be downloaded in PDF, DOCX or LaTeX format.

Documentation

Bug Reports / Support

We try our best to deliver bug-free plugins, but we can not test the plugin for every platform, database, PHP and Moodle version. If you find any bug please report it on GitHub. Please provide a detailed bug description, including the plugin and Moodle version and, if applicable, a screenshot.

You may also file a request for enhancement on GitHub. If we consider the request generally useful and if it can be implemented with reasonable effort we might implement it in a future version.

You may also post general questions on the plugin on GitHub, but note that we do not have the resources to provide detailed support.

    I am not able to evaluate the answers in Moodle Offline quiz. I have added a user with ID in the offline qui but when it is reading the image file,it says " User not in course" even though the user exits. Would be great to get some help here to resolve this issue.

    Hello, I also have the problem above. On my system I also do not get ID numbers listed when I go to Participants > Attendances.
    I am on Moodle 3.4.1 and am using version 2018011601 of Offline Quiz. We are using the More theme. I looked at putting this on Github, but I don't know if it is a bug or a misconfiguration issue.

    I am using Moodle version - 2017051503.06 and OfflineQuiz version 2017081102. Getting the error "user not found" when the answer sheet is uploaded though the user is present in the quiz. This is happening only for a few answer sheets uploaded but not all.

    @Lakshmi Gopal - there can be issue related to adjustment , you can manually adjust it using you mouse by clicking the right IDs . better if you can share the screen also to understand more clear . .

    Is there any way to change the answer sheet format. I need to use the 'o - filled completely' as user response...and also change the number of answers that can go on sheet. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    Sadly both of your wishes are not possible without changing a lot of code.

    best regards

    But is it possible to do so? Should i contact a php developer for this?

    It is possible, it's just a question of effort. The evaluation of the answer sheets is the most error-prone part of this plugin. changing the amount of answers that fit on a sheet will need a lot of changes in the code, because the plugin was not written with changing the sheets in mind, sadly. We are in the process of rewriting the evaluation, but it takes a lot of time.
