Saving students answers in tests with instant feedback
Page Overview
[Hide]This feature is covered by the feature Optional History for saved Testinput.
1 Initial Problem
ILIAS tests with STACK-questions are commonly used for homework in mathematics and other technical subjects. In the homework-scenarios students often get instant feedback from the system and are thus allowed to try each question several times.
Currently, in tests with instant feedback, only the final (usually correct) answer of a student is saved by ILIAS and can be seen by the teacher.
In order to evaluate the difficulty of the questions, to improve the automatic feedback provided to the students, and to find out possible misunderstandings and pre-concepts, it would important that the teacher could see the students' wrong answers and how many tries per question each student had.
2 Conceptual Summary
In tests, where instant feedback is available, each time a student clicks “Check” (Prüfen/Rückmeldung anfordern) the student's answer should be saved in the database.
The page "Ergebnisse zu Einzelfragen / Results per question" of the test module should include a new column "Tries/Versuche". Here the teacher could download an Excel-sheet per question, including all answers of all students.
The answers can be presented in a single table with the following columns:
- Name of the student
- Username
- Running number, how many times the student has tried the question
- Total Points received for this answer
- Answer to answer field 1
- Answer to answer field 2
- Answer to answer field 3
- etc.
- STACK Question
- Formula Question
- Numeric Question
- Cloze Question
- Single Choice
- Multiple Choice
- ...
Consider for example the following test question:
![](./data/docu/mobs/mm_59291/shot1.jpg?il_wac_token=13f123986105d434db37e382788dbfaad148efd2&il_wac_ttl=5&il_wac_ts=1725755178)
The exported excel-sheet should include following information:
![](./data/docu/mobs/mm_59292/shot2.jpg?il_wac_token=13f123986105d434db37e382788dbfaad148efd2&il_wac_ttl=5&il_wac_ts=1725755178)
3 User Interface Modifications
