Show Only Available Points

1 Initial Problem

Sometimes teachers do not want give the learners hints, by showing the title. However, the teachers would like to enable their students to display the possible score for the current question in the test-player. Actually such a configuration is not possible in ILIAS.

This problem has also been reckognized by the Splitting Up Working Group as a conceptual missing feature.

2 Conceptual Summary

Create an Option "Show Only Available Points". In the Testplayer  the learner sees only the available points. The title of the question is hidden for him.

Sesterhenn, Fabian [sesterhenn] 31. Aug 2022: Interest in funding.

Weber, Jens [jens.weber] 1. Sep 2022: Also cf. "Konzept- und Implementierungslücken im T&A – Testeinstellungen: Anzeige der Fragetitel - nur erreichbare Punkte" / https://docu.ilias.de/goto_docu_dcl_11004_228_7116.html)

Sesterhenn, Fabian [sesterhenn] 12. Sep 2022: Yes, one and the same. Link added thank you.

Strassner, Denis [dstrassner], 15 SEP 2022: I support this request in general. But the implementation of the Setting group MUST use UI Forms instead of legacy ones. 

Sesterhenn, Fabian [sesterhenn] 23. Mar 2023: Feature is funded by TH Köln. Contract settled.
