[[Import_questions]] - G, Nov 10, check if all these still play in Moodle 2, any outstanding issues? Repositories work here? -
''Import and export only had minimal changes to work with the files API in 2.0. The main change is that on export, the file is downloaded

actually implemented matches the spec.--Tim''

creative practices to go on [[Using Wiki]],
incorporated in a format applied across activities, some pic & link to clip needed, more useful links?
====[[Wiki settings]]====
Everything BEFORE the activity is open to participants. Guide the user through the first step of creation and
equivalent of clicking 'edit settings'(include permissions). Use headings, annotated screenshots welcome!
[[Adding/editing_a_wiki]] - OU, Nov 10, the how to section needs cleaning and aligning with practice & format in new Moodle 2 wiki

====[[Workshop settings]]====
[[Adding/updating_Workshop]] - OU, Dec 10, check accuracy but good short explanation of functions. A link to video, pics might help.
Remove the 'stub'
====[[Using Workshop]]====
Everything AFTER the activity is open to participants. Things like (if available) viewing, posting, grading, results, analysis,
reports, good practices, creative uses, examples, pedagogical implications etc.
[[Workshop_work_flow]] - OU, Oct 10, good basics, put in some pics to reinforce, example link
[[Workshop_grading_strategies]] - GU, Oct 10, badly needs an example and a pic, maybe link to School Demo example available (like others..).
Consider merging this with [[Workshop_grading]]
[[Workshop_grading]] - OU, Oct 10, good, a link to example, in context, would be very useful
====[[Workshop_module_FAQ|Workshop FAQ]]====
[[Workshop_module_FAQ]] - U, complete stub, needs work
==[[Tracking progress]]==
Brief info on what conditional etc are and point to items in the menu and what can be found in them.
===[[Conditional activities]]===
[[Conditional_activities]] - G, Jan 11, good, 'tricks', 'discussion' & similar things go to [[Using conditional activities]]
[[Development:Conditional_activities]] - useful, point format is great
Distinguish Automatic/Manual
====[[Conditional activities settings]]====
how are they set, who sets them (eg Admin must activate sitewide...), all things before they get used by students
====[[Using Conditional activities]]====
M, common/creative uses of this function in one place, some good info already at [[Conditional_activities]]...everything AFTER it is set for
students - creatives uses, good practice etc.
====[[Conditional activities FAQ]]====
[[ Conditional_activities_FAQ]] PU, needs a lot of work, common questions and answers needed...
===[[Activity completion]]===
= "tell when a part of a course is complete"
[[Activity_completion]] - GU, Jan 11, good, really need to come clean on naming these things, examples and pics or diagrams would be useful
the URL to DOCS on activity completion report [[course/report/progress/index]] is empty, need to change
====[[Activity completion settings]]====
how are they set, who sets them (eg Admin must activate sitewide...), all things before they get used by students
====[[Using Activity completion]]====
M, common/creative uses of this function in one place...
[[Course_completion_status_block]] - G, Feb 11, good start, pic included, maybe a link to example, scenario? Essential link to [[Course_completion]]
====[[Activity completion FAQ]]====
M, good to have one...
===[[Course completion]]===
= 'Tell when a course is complete'
[[Course_completion]] - OU, Jan 11, OK, maybe include a graph, mention similarity/differences with conditional activities, has
Manual completion sections, might add Automatic completion
====[[Course completion settings]]====
how are they set, who sets them (eg Admin must activate sitewide...), all things before they get used by students
====[[Using Course completion]]====
[[Course_completion_tracking]] - OU, Jan 11, basic overview OK, useful link to [[Course_completion]], link to comparison of
course completion/conditional activities (new page?)
[[Course_completion_status_block]] - see above under blocks, linked to
good link to Course completion screencast (Mary's)
could insert HQ clip on Activity completion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6vjgfMae8U (mess though, it has both activity and course completion)
Again, must distinguish this clearly from Conditional activities!
M, common/creative uses of this function in one place...
check [[Self completion block]] too, not sure.
====[[Course completion FAQ]]====
M, would be very good to have it...
==[[Gradebook]]==
Old template {{Grades}}
New template {{Gradebook}}
keep the existing redirect from [[Grades]]
General overview, link to glossary of terms? Need a good menu on this page...
[[Gradebook]], redirected from [[Grades]] - OU, Dec 10, 1.9 VI, large menu on the side needs a review, rich but confusing for a newcomer,
need to make this whole section a lot more user/teacher-friendly (eg. 'pushed by a module' means little or nothing to thousands who (will)
land here, need lots of links to examples.
[[General_grade_settings]] - OU, Feb 11, 1.9 VI, combine with [[Gradebook]] for a better overview
[[Grade_permissions]] - O, Jan 11, site/course/module level links to capabilities. Incorporate this/link to?
[[Development:Grades#API_for_communication_with_modules.2Fblocks]] - developers only, link may be handy though
related
[[Simplifying_the_gradebook_by_changing_permissions]] - OU, handy but need to be fairly advanced before you can 'simplify'...?
===[[Grade items]]===
= 'grading individual activities'
[[Grade_items]] - OU, Aug 10, 1.9 VI, good breakdown (Activity, Outcome, Manual) but need to clear up & offer examples (!)
[[Grade_calculations]] - O, Dec 10, averages, sums, weightings ... link to example(s) would be good
[[Edit_grade_calculation]] re-directed to [[Grade_calculations]] but not sure if that's where I'd go for editing...
===[[Grade categories]]===
=  'grading a group of activities'
[[Grade_categories]] - Dec 10, OU, 1.9 VI this thing sorely needs an example!
[[Edit_categories_and_items]] - OU, Mar 10, 1.9 VI, detailed, includes info on legacy grades, moving categories & items,
has pics but examples would be good
[[Category_aggregation]] - GC, Dec 10, 1.9 VI, good, include it, good note about 'empty grades'
[[Grade_category_settings]] - OU, Jan 11, 1.9 VI, from Admin menu, useful to pull some of these things to 'Advanced' for teachers, even though
Admin is the person to do it. Optional
===[[Scales]]===
=  'rating answers and contributions'
[[Scales]] - GU, Jun 10, good but must mention use for [[Ratings_2.0]], also automatic entry of ratings to GB + only Teacher can edit (by default,
can change), good for student/peer feedback if students able
[[Ratings_2.0]] - GC, Sep 10, just need a link to example or two, add some 'creative uses'
===[[Outcomes]]===
= 'creating standards of competency'
[[Outcomes]] - OU, Jul 10, 1.9 VI, need to clear this up...outcome is not like a (numerical, letter) grade. It's a statement that a person can
do something (eg. ride a bike), not necessarily how well they do it (eg. 73% well). OK, the link with scales ... test this! Maybe I am being
picky because I used outcomes extensively in schools and they never lent themselves well to classical 'grading'
[[Outcomes_report]] - OU, Jul 10, here it is again... how can you have an 'average of outcomes'? (can fly aeroplane, can't drive car -
what's the average? ... arrrrgh
[[Metadata]] - redirect from Development: Outcomes - explained rationale, borrow and link
===[[Grade letters]]===
[[Grade_letters]] - GU, Sep 10, pretty good, has pics, 1.9 VI
==[[Course reports]]==
general info about types would be useful ...
there is [[Reports]] page but needs updating to reflect Moodle and template menus
===[[Grader report]]===
= 'see all grades in a course'
[[Grader_report]] - GU, Jan 11, 1.9 VI, main Teacher view
===[[User report]]===
= 'in depth, individual report'
[[User_report]] - G, Aug 10, good pic, any changes to this in Moodle 2? "Comments' ?
===[[Course completion report]]===
= 'check completion and progress in a course'
M,  -> page URL still pointing to blank Doc [[course/report/completion/index]]
related is [[Course_completion_status_block]] - G, Feb 11, good start, pic included, maybe a link to example, scenario? Essential link to
[[Course_completion]]
[[Development:Course_completion]] - U, May 10, pre-Moodle 2 release, handy to see where it came from...but not essential, maybe a See also item
===[[Logs report|Logs]]===
- 'check all activities by user in a course'
[[Logs report]] redirect from [[course/report/log/index]] - GU, Sep 08, has both teacher and admin log reports together, just check for currency and accuracy
since this was last updated in 2008
===[[Activity report]]===
[[Activity report]] URL redirect from [[course/report/outline/index]] - GU, Sep 09, check this for accuracy and currency in Moodle 2
===[[Participation report]]===
[[Participation report]] redirect from [[course/report/participation/index]] - GU, Jan 10, just check for currency and accuracy in Moodle 2
===Statistics===
[[Statistics]] URL redirect [[course/report/stats/index]] - G, Jan 11, just check, very good
===[[Overview report]]===
= 'see progress in several courses'
An Admin & Manager item but useful to know for a teacher
From here simply link to article on Overview Report in Managing Moodle site section, details there
[[Overview_report]] - PU, Aug 10, 1.9 VI, not sure about some of the statements made, must mention handy for default Manager in Moodle 2
to get an overview of how students are doing across courses, not automatically available to teachers in a course

*[[Site backup]]
===[[Differences between Moodle 1.x and 2.x]]===
*[[Course backup]]
Many links to the above: file handling, filepicker, private files etc
*[[Course restore]]
this section will need to be very, very good and clear thanks to a lot of heat in the community on this issue.

Useful references to (the past):
*[[Year-end procedures]]

*[[Language customisation]]
M, linked to HTML editor probably, media plugins, outline ways, pros and cons of embedding various things (eg iframes etc)
