Retaking the quiz but limiting students to 2 attempts only

[Itzelm]

Hi guys, I need your help. I need to setup a quiz so that the students have 2 attempts only.  They don't necessarily have to take the second attempt immediately after the first failed one.  The quiz has up to 50 questions. At the end of the quiz they see the quiz results and the retake button. We have checked "do not send resume data"  but now, if the user closes the browser without clicking "retake quiz" and they return, they can take the quiz again without clickin "retake", and if they do the same thing over again, they can take the quiz as many times as they want.  So, I need a way to lock them out of the quiz once they are done with the second attempt. Moodle 1.9 does not allow that, so I have to lock them from within the Captivate file.

Any ideas on how to achieve this? is unchecking the 'do not send resume data" the only option (basically forcing them to the results page where the "retake quiz" button is?

Thanks

If you are not using Resume Data bookmarking, each launch of the SCO module will be a fresh one.  According to the SCORM standard, the SCO itself doesn't store the attempt data, that's the LMSs job.  So if the attempt is still in progress and merely suspended to be later resumed, the SCO will behave as if you'd never touched it before.

If you want a way to lock the user out of the module after their first attempt, you have to do this in the LMS.  Moodle (even 1.9) allows you to set the number of attempts on a course.  Once the user has failed all allowed attempts they can no longer open the course modules.
