[LON-CAPA-users] question about entries in the activity log

[Bob Gonzales]

Hi,

I had a student who claims he submitted an answer and didn't get credit for
it.  This happened during a quiz so he didn't get the problem status, or a
receipt, at the time of the submission.  In looking through the activity
file I see something that I don't understand and was wondering if it was
somehow related.

The problem has 4 parts.  The 2nd part is a radiobuttonresponse and it is
the one that the student claims to have answered.  In the activity log
excerpt below, the 2nd part is HWVAL_14.

The thing that I don't understand is that HWVAL_14 doesn't show up in the
POST on line 469 for the 1st part like the other parts do.  Then it shows
up on line 468 with a value.  Line 468 is a POST for the 3rd part as
indicated by the submission in the CSTORE on line 467.  Then on line 465,
the POST for the 4th part, HWVAL_14 is missing again.

Looking at the issue of not getting credit for the submission, did he click
on a radio button but not the submit button for that part (the 2nd part).
Then when he submitted his answer for the 3rd part, the 2nd part POST'ed
too but lon-capa didn't grade it since the submit was not for the 3rd
part.  That seems reasonable.

Is there an explanation for the line HWVAL_14 appearing and disappearing?
I thought maybe the activity log might be corrupt but grading
indicates "Nothing
submitted - no attempts."

Are these 2 things related?
