You can allow your participants to navigate freely through course content, or not!
With Easy LMS you can create Courses, and include Exams within your Courses.
If you have an Exam included in your Course, you might wish to allow your participants to view previous slides and use them as a reference point while the Exam is in progress. Or you might prefer that they have to take the Exam from memory, without referring back to earlier content slides. We have a setting for that!
You can find the setting in your Course by going to your Slides, and either adding or editing an Exam slide. You will see two options in the Navigation behavior section:
Allowing navigation
If you allow participants to navigate through Course slides while taking the Exam, they will be able to visit all slides they have previously visited, and then return to the Exam and pick up where they left off.
Preventing navigation
If you prevent participants from navigating through Course slides while an Exam is in progress, they will be unable to visit slides they have previously visited, and can only continue with the Exam.
From the Start page and Result page of the Exam navigation will not be limited, this is only while the questions are in progress.
What about navigation from other slide types?
With either setting, participants can navigate back to any other type of slide visited previously at any point prior to completion of the Course. The setting only affects navigation from Exams.
Once the Course has been completed, it will only be possible to navigate back to the Landing page or Introduction, from where a new session can be started (depending on the number of attempts you have allowed per participant in your Advanced settings).
