Hi all,

Actually it doesn't have to be online just on a computer. As a project I want to help a tutor (to save paper) put all her theory onto a computer as opposed to printing endless volumes of paper.

Now I am reasonably (but by no means an expert) familiar with creating web pages. I know it can be done this way with a Next button to go to the next page or whatever.

However, it would be an idea to be able to create something more substantial:
  • Log in system for students
  • Once logged in the can see what sections they have read and where to continue from
  • A series of questions relating to theory. (multiple choice/ true false etc)
  • Once all questions complete, it shows result and where they went wrong.
  • Displays a list of attempts, results with dates etc
  • Links to printable exercises for essay type answers

I am assuming this can be done with php. I don't have any knowledge of this but I think this would be an excellent project for myself to be able to create this from the ground up.

Would it require a database? or just a text file like a presume the Driver Theory Test disks use?

Thanks for any advice in advance.

Thanks guys.

In my limited experience of moodle in college I got the impression it just provides links to word documents etc rather than actually displaying the content?
