The Tutorship module helps to administrate and schedule tutoring hours, it allows to make appointments for tutoring interview sessions between teachers and students from a configurable time slots timetable view. Teachers can design their module timetable in order to offer the students a tutorship timetable, so that they can see and make appointments by requesting any available timetable slot.
It was first developed under Moodle version 2.0 in November 2010. It is contributed by Alejandro Michavila.
There are three different views depending on user roll:
- Teachers
- Can manage up to three different timetables, adjust the settings that will be applied for all timetables, and it can be done within any course the teacher is enrolled in.
- Students
- Can request or cancell time slots from the teacher's timetable, where current week is show by default, but next week is also available for viewing.
- Administrators
- Can adjust initial module settings before any teacher adds any instance to any course.
