Test Player: Kiosk-Mode (Exam View) for Page Layout Revision

This page was created well after feature freeze for ILIAS 6. This is in agreement with the procedure for interface changes caused by the Page Layout Revision as permitted by the PM.

1 Initial Problem

The purpose of the current kiosk mode player used in the test object is to enable learners to write exams in a distraction free environment, at least with regarding ILIAS.

The Page Layout Revision (Desktop) makes it possible to move existing visual components to new locations while reusing the new layout elements.

2 Conceptual Summary

We suggest to arrange the existing visual elements of the kiosk mode player in the Test object as such:

• The title of the page is used to display the title of the Test.
• The logo of the installation is kept to keep visual identity of the installation.
• Compared to the kiosk mode in the learning sequence there are no Metabar Items. The kiosk mode in the test does not use X-Glyph, because the test is only left with the button "Finish the test".
• The breadcrumbs are empty.
• The mainbar displays the List of Questions as a slate. The standard main-bar items are not displayed to minimize distraction. The slate with theList of Questions  can be opened and closed.
• Above the questions in the content area the remaining processing time of the test and an area that can contain information such as the name of the test participant, ILIAS test number, etc. is displayed.

3 User Interface Modifications

3.1 List of Affected Views

• Test >> Exam View

3.2 User Interface Details

The List of Question is not only displayed in the Exam View. If a users open a test in which the Exam View is not activated, the List of Questions must be displayed in a Tools Slate. Since the question list should not behave differently depending on the view, it should also be transferred to a tool slate in the Exam View.

3.3 New User Interface Concepts

none.

8 Discussion

Strassner, Denis [dstrassner], 18 NOV 2019: The Test Pass ID will then be displayed left justified?

Zenzen, Enrico [ezenzen], 20 NOV 2019: In my opinion the "Test Pass ID" is displayed below the name as in ILIAS 5.4 (see Mockup below the comment). The area highlighted by two dividing lines does not differ from ILIAS 5.4. 

Strassner, Denis [dstrassner], 18 NOV 2019: Thx Enrico for the additional mockup. I agree with your suggestion.

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], 18 NOV 2019 : We highly appreciate this suggestion and schedule the feature for ILIAS 6 as part of the Page Layout Revision.
