How to allow students to re-attempt questions they have partially or totally answered incorrectly

Credit (Adam Farrugia): Does anyone know the exact setting to use on a quiz that would allow a student to only re attempt questions they have partially or totally answered incorrectly? We would like to set up a quiz so that the correct answers stay and a second attempt builds on the first but they only need to reanswer the incorrect questions. Currently when we set up all answers disappear and the student has to redo the whole assessment.

  Credit (Andy Braden): Each attempt builds on the last should do that for you.

  Each attempt builds on the last gets you some of the way, but still has issues.    A student can see their previous attempt, but they still see every question (including those they got right) and they are not prevented from reattempting questions they got right on the first attempt and getting them wrong on the second attempt.
  
  I have been working on a JS hack, to hide correct questions on subsequent attempts.   It is completely unsupported (by Moodle or by me), so here-be-dragons, but you can look to the codebase here if you are curious:

  reattemptQuiz.js

   

  It builds on the work of Dominiwue Bauer, shown in this thread: 

  Moodle in English: Reattempt only incorrect questions
