Support Plugin Question Types on Learning Module Pages

1 Requirements

Implement an interface that allows test questions plugins to be used on learning module pages. A question type that implements this interface will be selectable after choosing “insert question” in the page editor.

It should be possible for the plugin to indicate whether it supports being used online, offline, or with scorm. The interface should also support question plugins that need an online evaluation (like STACK). The page editor should show a warning to the authors if a question is not working in offline exports.

The question GUI of the plugin will be used to edit the settings of the question. When the page is rendered, a specific GUI method of the plugin should be called to provide the html code of the question. A call parameter should indicate whether the page is viewed online or generated for html or scorm export. Online questions can work similar to the preview mode in the question pool.

Our Interest: We want to use the Accounting Question Plugin within the learning module. That is why we got in contact with Fred Neumann who told us that this would only be possible if first this feature was implemented.
