How is the average Course Quiz Attempts risk factor calculated?
We determine the average number of attempts a user takes across all of their quizzes. If this average is 10 or higher, it is then capped at 10, which represents the maximum risk score of 100% for that risk factor.
Examples:
- If a user averages 10 attempts per quiz, they receive a 100% score for this risk factor.
With a default quiz attempt weighting of 33%, this adds 33 points to their overall risk score. - If the average is 5 attempts per quiz, the user receives a 50% score for this risk factor.
Using the same 33% weighting, this adds 16 points (rounded down) to their overall risk score.
Example using the calculation:
The user has a Quiz Attempts Score of 1 and has completed 4 quizzes, taking various numbers of attempts to pass the quizzes:
- Emerging Cyber Threats Quiz 1: 5 attempts
- The Essentials Plus Quiz 1: 3 attempts
- Cyber Police Bonus Episode Quiz 1: 1 attempt
- The Essentials Plus Quiz 2: 1 attempt
Calculate the average Quiz Attempts Score.
Find the sum of all of the quiz attempts and then divide this figure by the total number of quizzes.
- (5 + 3 + 1 + 1) ÷ 4 × 10 = 10 ÷ 4 × 10 = 2.5 × 10 = 25
In this instance, the customer has customised the risk score weighting for quiz attempts to have a 5% impact on the overall risk score calculation.
You then need to multiply the weight: 5%.
- 25 × (5 ÷ 100) = 25 × 0.05 = 1.25 total Quiz Risk, which then rounds down to 1.
⚠️ Please note: A Risk calculation time period can be set for courses targeted to users between the last 1-3 years. Fusion quizzes with pass marks and that have risk scores enabled will only contribute to this risk factor.
