Running papers (logs)
When a paper is run (tested) it stores user answers and marks in a log table. This is the same whether the user is a member of staff or a student. One record is used per user per question for each paper. The log table that is written to depends on the type of paper the question is included on, see below:
Table Name | Purpose |
---|---|
log_metadata | Metadata information - one per user per paper per attempt. |
log_metadata_deleted | Records moved from log_metadata when old logs are cleared. |
log0 | Formative Quiz log |
log0_deleted | Records moved from log0 when old logs are cleared. |
log1 | Progress Test log |
log1_deleted | Records moved from log1 when old logs are cleared. |
log2 | Summative Exam log |
log3 | Survey log |
