&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/choice/view.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (when viewing a choice)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Viewing a choice page, you will see the choice name and description as well as the options you can vote for. Clicking Save my choice saves the answer you have chosen. You can also &#039;View x responses&#039; (where &#039;x&#039; is the number of responses given to the choice).&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/choice/index.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (the page which aggregates all choices in a course)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the page where you can see all the choice activities in the course. They are organized according to the section (topic or week) of the course they belong to. If you have answered any of the choice activities, your responses will also be shown here, in the right column.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/chat/gui_header_js/index.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (the view inside a chatroom)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As you access the chat session page, clicking the &#039;Click here to enter the chat now&#039; link, you will see it divided into two parts, the left one with the posts that appear during a given chat session and the right one listing the people in the chat room at the very moment. Underneath you will find the field, in which you can type the message you wish to appear on the chat session page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are some guidelines you can think of considering while using the chat module. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The chat module contains some features to make chatting a little nicer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Smilies &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Any smiley faces (emoticons) that you can type elsewhere in Moodle can also be typed in here and they will be displayed correctly. For example, :-) =  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Links &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Internet addresses will be turned into links automatically. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Emoting &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can start a line with &amp;quot;/me&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;:&amp;quot; to emote. For example, if your name is Kim and you type &amp;quot;:laughs!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;/me laughs!&amp;quot; then everyone will see &amp;quot;Kim laughs!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Beeps &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can send a sound to other people by hitting the &amp;quot;beep&amp;quot; link next to their name. A useful shortcut to beep all the people in the chat at once is to type &amp;quot;beep all&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* HTML &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you know some HTML code, you can use it in your text to do things like insert images, play sounds or create different coloured and sized text.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Viewing the chat page, you will find all course chats listed under two headings: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Topic (The number of the topic that a given chat can be found) &lt;br /&gt;
# Name (The name that a given chat is recognized by) &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a chat&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Name of this chat room==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the chat, which will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction text==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the chat here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the chat. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Next chat time==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The day and hour of the next chat session. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Repeat sessions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can choose any out of four options allowing to schedule the future chat sessions: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Don&#039;t publish any chat times &lt;br /&gt;
# No repeats - publish the specified time only &lt;br /&gt;
# At the same time every day&lt;br /&gt;
# At the same time every week&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Save past sessions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can determine the number of days (or rather, choose out of several options&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Everyone can view past sessions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can decide here whether or not allow everyone to view past chat sessions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Group mode===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be one of three levels: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* No groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Separate groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group can only see their own group, others are invisible &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Visible groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group works in their own group, but can also see other groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be defined at two levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Activity level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each activity that supports groups can also define its own grouping mode. If the course is set to [[Force group mode|&amp;quot;force group mode&amp;quot;]] then the setting for each activity is ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Visible to students==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can hide the activity from students by selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; here. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a choice&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When creating or editing a choice activity, you will have to fill in the following data:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Choice name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the choice (e.g. &amp;quot;Favourite colour&amp;quot;). This will be displayed on the course&#039;s homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Choice text==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the choice activity here. It should contain the question that you want your students to answer. An example of the choice text could be &amp;quot;What is your favourite colour?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Choice 1 ~ Choice 10==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here is where you specify the options that participants have to choose from. In our example, the numbered options could be e.g. &amp;quot;blue&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;green&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;red&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;yellow&amp;quot;, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can fill in any number of these: if you leave some of the options blank, they will not be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Limit the number of responses allowed==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows you to limit the number of participants who can select each particular option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once Limits have been enabled, each option can be assigned a limit. When the limit is reached then no-one else can select that option. A limit of zero (0) means that no-one can select that option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If Limits are disabled then any number of participants can select any of the options.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Restrict answering to this time period==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This setting allows you to define a time window within which participants are allowed to make a choice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To set an open-ended close date just set the time very far in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you don&#039;t need this at all then uncheck the box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Display Mode==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This setting allows you to choose how the choices will be displayed to the participants: horizontally, or vertically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hint&#039;&#039;&#039;: In most cases, if there are only a few choices with little text, they may be positioned horizontally. However, if there are more than 5-6 choices or if the text of the choices is longer than 2-3 words, it should be better to display them vertically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Publish results==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This setting determines whether (and when) the students will be able to view the results of the choice activity. They may:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* never see the results of the choice&lt;br /&gt;
* see the results only after they have given the answer themselves&lt;br /&gt;
* see the results only after the closing date of the choice&lt;br /&gt;
* always see the results&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Privacy of results==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the choice results are shown to students, this setting determines whether the results will be anonymous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allow choice to be updated==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If this is set to &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot;, students can change their mind after they have voted. If it&#039;s set to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot;, students cannot change their choice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Show column for unanswered==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If set to &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot;, this will display a column showing how many participants have not answered the choice activity yet. If set to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot;, the results will only include the participants who have already voted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Group mode===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be one of three levels: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* No groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Separate groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group can only see their own group, others are invisible &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Visible groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group works in their own group, but can also see other groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be defined at two levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Activity level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each activity that supports groups can also define its own grouping mode. If the course is set to [[Force group mode|&amp;quot;force group mode&amp;quot;]] then the setting for each activity is ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Visible to students==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can hide the activity from students by selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; here. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a forum&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Creating or editing a forum activity, you will fill in the following data: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the forum (e.g. &amp;quot;Favourite colour&amp;quot;), which will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, there are three forum types to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;A single simple discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - a single topic discussion developed on one page, which is useful for short focussed discussions&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Standard forum for general use&#039;&#039;&#039; - an open forum where anyone can start a new topic at any time; this is the best general-purpose forum&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Each person posts one discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - each person can post exactly one new discussion topic (everyone can reply to them though); this is useful when you want each student to start a discussion about, say, their reflections on the week&#039;s topic, and everyone else responds to these&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum introduction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the forum here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the forum and, if necessary, the grading criteria.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Can a student post to this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows you to restrict students from posting new content in this forum. Again you have three options to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Discussions and replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039; This option leaves students unrestricted, which is the case for most forums. Thus, you choose to allow them to start new discussion topics (threads), and also to post replies within those threads.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, but replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039; This option should be chosen the option if only teachers are to be allowed to start new discussions. Students will still be allowed to reply within those threads (for example within the news forum on the site home page). &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, no replies&#039;&#039;&#039; Choosing this option babs students from starting new discussion topics and replying within those threads. This is useful for the News forum when you only want teachers to post new items that appear on the course main page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Force everyone to be subscribed?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a person is subscribed to a forum it means that they will be sent email copies of every post in that forum (posts are sent about 30 minutes after the post was first written). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People can usually choose whether or not they want to be subscribed to each forum. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, if you choose to force subscription on a particular forum then all course users will be subscribed automatically, even those that enrol at a later time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is especially useful in the News forum and in forums towards the beginning of the course (before everyone has worked out that they can subscribe to these emails themselves). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you choose the option &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; then all current and future course users will be subscribed initially but they can unsubscribe themselves at any time. If you choose &amp;quot;Yes, forever&amp;quot; then they will not be able to unsubscribe themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note how the &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; option behaves when you update an existing forum: Changing from &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; will not unsubscribe existing users, it will only affect future course users. Similarly changing later to &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; will not subscribe existing course users but only those enrolling later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Read tracking for this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If &#039;read tracking&#039; for forums is enabled, users can track read and unread messages in forums and discussions. The instructor can choose to force a tracking type on a forum using this setting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are three choice for this setting:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Optional [default]&#039;&#039;&#039; - students can turn tracking on or off for the forum at their discretion &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;On&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always on&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Off&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always off&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Maximum attachment size==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Attachments can be limited to a certain size file, chosen by the person who set up the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it is possible to upload a file larger than this size, but the file will not be saved on the server and you might see an error.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allow posts to be rated?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you will have to consider whether or not enable two options: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Use ratings====&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
If you decide to rate posts on the forum, you will have to define settings of the three following aspects: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Users&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want everybody to rate posts, choose &#039;Everyone can rate posts&#039;. Otherwise, pick &#039;Only teachers can rate posts&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;View&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to keep the grades known only to the individual students graded, you should choose the option &#039;Students can only see their own ratings&#039;. If there is no such a need, opt for &#039;Students can see everyone&#039;s ratings&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grade&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several grading scales you can choose from. You can give a number of points to each post (from 1 to 100) or you can opt for two other scales: &#039;&#039;&#039;Scale: satisfactory&#039;&#039;&#039; (Outstanding, Satisfactory and Not satisfactory) or &#039;&#039;&#039;Separate and Connected ways of knowing&#039;&#039;&#039; (Mostly Connected Knowing, Separate and Connected, Mostly Separate Knowing). More information about the latter one are to be found [[Separate and Connected ways of knowing|here]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Restrict ratings to posts with dates in this range====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable the &#039;&#039;&#039;Use ratings&#039;&#039;&#039; option, you will also face the necessity of choosing whether or not enable another option restricting ratings to posts in terms of time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Group mode===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be one of three levels: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* No groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Separate groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group can only see their own group, others are invisible &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Visible groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group works in their own group, but can also see other groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be defined at two levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Activity level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each activity that supports groups can also define its own grouping mode. If the course is set to [[Force group mode|&amp;quot;force group mode&amp;quot;]] then the setting for each activity is ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Visible to students==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can hide the activity from students by selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; here. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a forum&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Creating or editing a forum activity, you will fill in the following data: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the forum (e.g. &amp;quot;Favourite colour&amp;quot;), which will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, there are three forum types to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;A single simple discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - a single topic discussion developed on one page, which is useful for short focussed discussions&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Standard forum for general use&#039;&#039;&#039; - an open forum where anyone can start a new topic at any time; this is the best general-purpose forum&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Each person posts one discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - each person can post exactly one new discussion topic (everyone can reply to them though); this is useful when you want each student to start a discussion about, say, their reflections on the week&#039;s topic, and everyone else responds to these&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum introduction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the forum here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the forum and, if necessary, the grading criteria.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Can a student post to this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows you to restrict students from posting new content in this forum. Again you have three options to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Discussions and replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039; This option leaves students unrestricted, which is the case for most forums. Thus, you choose to allow them to start new discussion topics (threads), and also to post replies within those threads.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, but replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039; This option should be chosen the option if only teachers are to be allowed to start new discussions. Students will still be allowed to reply within those threads (for example within the news forum on the site home page). &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, no replies&#039;&#039;&#039; Choosing this option babs students from starting new discussion topics and replying within those threads. This is useful for the News forum when you only want teachers to post new items that appear on the course main page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Force everyone to be subscribed?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a person is subscribed to a forum it means that they will be sent email copies of every post in that forum (posts are sent about 30 minutes after the post was first written). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People can usually choose whether or not they want to be subscribed to each forum. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This is especially useful in the News forum and in forums towards the beginning of the course (before everyone has worked out that they can subscribe to these emails themselves). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you choose the option &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; then all current and future course users will be subscribed initially but they can unsubscribe themselves at any time. If you choose &amp;quot;Yes, forever&amp;quot; then they will not be able to unsubscribe themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Similarly changing later to &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; will not subscribe existing course users but only those enrolling later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Read tracking for this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If &#039;read tracking&#039; for forums is enabled, users can track read and unread messages in forums and discussions. The instructor can choose to force a tracking type on a forum using this setting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are three choice for this setting:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Optional [default]&#039;&#039;&#039; - students can turn tracking on or off for the forum at their discretion &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;On&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always on&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Off&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always off&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Maximum attachment size==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Attachments can be limited to a certain size file, chosen by the person who set up the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it is possible to upload a file larger than this size, but the file will not be saved on the server and you might see an error.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allow posts to be rated?==&lt;br /&gt;

If you decide to rate posts on the forum, you will have to define settings of the three following aspects: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Users&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want everybody to rate posts, choose &#039;Everyone can rate posts&#039;. Otherwise, pick &#039;Only teachers can rate posts&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;View&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to keep the grades known only to the individual students graded, you should choose the option &#039;Students can only see their own ratings&#039;. If there is no such a need, opt for &#039;Students can see everyone&#039;s ratings&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grade&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several grading scales you can choose from. You can give a number of points to each post (from 1 to 100) or you can opt for two other scales: &#039;&#039;&#039;Scale: satisfactory&#039;&#039;&#039; (Outstanding, Satisfactory and Not satisfactory) or &#039;&#039;&#039;Separate and Connected ways of knowing&#039;&#039;&#039; (Mostly Connected Knowing, Separate and Connected, Mostly Separate Knowing). More information about the latter one are to be found [[Separate and Connected ways of knowing|here]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Restrict ratings to posts with dates in this range====&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Group mode==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sets the group mode of the choice activity to one of the following three:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# No groups - there are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community &lt;br /&gt;
# Separate groups - each group can only see their own group, others are invisible &lt;br /&gt;
# Visible groups - each group works in their own group, but can also see other groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be defined at two levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Activity level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each activity that supports groups can also define its own grouping mode. If the course is set to &amp;quot;force group mode&amp;quot; then the setting for each activity is ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Visible to students==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can hide the activity from students by selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; here. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a chat&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Name of this chat room==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the chat, which will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction text==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the chat here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the chat. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Next chat time==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The day and hour of the next chat session. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Repeat sessions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can choose any out of four options allowing to schedule the future chat sessions: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Don&#039;t publish any chat times &lt;br /&gt;
# No repeats - publish the specified time only &lt;br /&gt;
# At the same time every day&lt;br /&gt;
# At the same time every week&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Save past sessions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can determine the number of days (or rather, choose out of several options&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Everyone can view past sessions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can decide here whether or not allow everyone to view past chat sessions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Group mode==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sets the group mode of the choice activity to one of the following three:&lt;br /&gt;

 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/assignment/view.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Viewing/submitting an assignment you will see the assignment name and its description with the &#039;View x submitted assignments&#039; link (where &#039;x&#039; is the number of assignments submitted) and the opening/closing dates &amp;amp; hours (&#039;Available from&#039; and &#039;Due date&#039;) of a given assignment. What&#039;s (and if there is anything) below depends on the type of assignment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* In the Offline activity assignment there are no additional options. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* In the Online text assignment you will also see your assignment submission (if you have done so) with the Edit my submission option as well as the Feedback from the Teacher field. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* In the Upload a single file assignment, you can go for the Upload a file option, the execution of which demands using the Browse link allowing you to choose the file on your computer you wish to be uploaded.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;[[&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/assignment/index.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (the page which aggregates all assignments in a course)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the page where you can see all the assignment activities in the course, listed under six headings:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Topic&#039;&#039;&#039; (the number of the block you can find a given assignment under)&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Name&#039;&#039;&#039; (the name of the assignment activity) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Assignment type&#039;&#039;&#039; (a short description of the resource written in the Summary field while creating a resource activity) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Due date&#039;&#039;&#039; (the date after which the submission of assignments is not accepted) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Submitted&#039;&#039;&#039; (under which you will see a line: &#039;View x submitted assignments&#039; where &#039;x&#039; is the number of the assignments submitted) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Grade&#039;&#039;&#039; (the grade for the assignment: participants see here only their grades)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The page can be accessed by following the assignment link in the course activities block or following the assignment link in the navigation trail (visable when viewing an assignment)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Example of the assignment page in the Moodle Features Demo course ===&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Previewing a quiz you will see it basically the way students do while attempting it, one of a few differences being the top heading. In a preview it will say &#039;Preview check&#039;. Attempting a quiz, it will say which attempt at the test it is. Also, all the questions will have a mark index, i.e. the number of points gained per the number of points that could be gained for doing a given question. You will find it under the question number. Also, each question is given a Submit button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The quiz questions being answered, you will find three options to go for: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Save without submitting&#039;&#039;&#039; - which, as its name says, saves the answers without submitting them &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Submit page&#039;&#039;&#039; (optional) - which submits only a given quiz page &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Submit all and finish&#039;&#039;&#039; - which saves the whole quiz&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Quiz reports tab includes three sub tabs: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Overview===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This contains the list of quiz attempts arranged in four columns:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;First name / Surname&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Started on&#039;&#039;&#039; - that contains the information about the exact time the test was started&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Time taken&#039;&#039;&#039; - the amount of time it took a given student to do the test&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Grade/x&#039;&#039;&#039; - the number of points students scored; &#039;x&#039; is the maximum number of points students could score&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The default view lists only the students who attempted the test. You can, however, change the display settings checking either of the two boxes (followed by clicking Go): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Show students with no attempts&#039;&#039;&#039; - the list will include all the course students no matter if they did the test or not&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Show mark details&#039;&#039;&#039; - this extends the list with as many columns as there are questions in the test; each column is headed by &#039;n&#039; (where &#039;n&#039; stands for the question number) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the Select all / Deselect all options you can check / uncheck all the names in the list, and, with selected, delete. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Regrade attempts===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That option will recalculate the quiz grades if you have changed the points possible for the quiz or a question. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Item analysis===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This table presents processed quiz data in a way suitable for anayzing and judging the performance of each question for the function of assessment. The statistical parameters used are calculated as explained by classical test theory (ref. 1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Facility Index (% Correct)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is a measure of how easy or difficult is a question for quiz-takers. It is calculated as: &lt;br /&gt;
FI = (Xaverage) / Xmax &lt;br /&gt;
where Xaverage is the mean credit obtained by all users attempting the item, &lt;br /&gt;
and Xmax is the maximum credit achievable for that item.&lt;br /&gt;
If questions can be distributed dicotomically into correct / uncorrect categories, this parameter coincides with the percentage of users that answer the question correctly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Standard Deviation (SD)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This parameter measures the spread of answers in the response population. If all users answers the same, then SD=0. SD is calculated as the statistical stadard deviation for the sample of fractional scores (achieved/maximum) at each particular question. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Discrimination Index (DI)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This provides a rough indicator of the performance of each item to separate proficient vs. less-proficient users. This parameter is calculated by first dividing learners into thirds based on the overall score in the quiz. Then the average score at the analyzed item is calculated for the groups of top and bottom performers, and the average scored substracted. The matematical expression is: &lt;br /&gt;
DI = (Xtop - Xbottom)/ N &lt;br /&gt;
where Xtop is the sum of the fractional credit (achieved/maximum) obtained at this item by the 1/3 of users having tha highest grades in the whole quiz (i.e. number of correct responses in this group), &lt;br /&gt;
and Xbottom) is the analog sum for users with the lower 1/3 grades for the whole quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This parameter can take values between +1 and -1. If the index goes below 0.0 it means that more of the weaker learners got the item right than the stronger learners. Such items should be discarded as worthless. In fact, they reduce the accuracy of the overall score for the quiz. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Discrimination Coefficient (DC)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is another measure of the separating power of the item to distinguish proficient from weak learners.&lt;br /&gt;
The discrimination coefficient is a correlation coefficient between scores at the item and at the whole quiz. Here it is calculated as: &lt;br /&gt;
DC = Sum(xy)/ (N * sx * sy) &lt;br /&gt;
where Sun(xy) is the sum of the products of deviations for item scores and overall quiz scores, &lt;br /&gt;
N is the number of responses given to this question&lt;br /&gt;
sx is the standard deviation of fractional scores for this question and, &lt;br /&gt;
sy is the standard deviation of scores at the quiz as a whole. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Again, this parameter can take values between +1 and -1. Positive values indicate items that do discriminate proficient learners, whereas negative indices mark items that are answered best by those with lowest grades. Items with negative DC are answered incorrectly by the seasoned learners and thus they are actually a penalty against the most proficient learners. Those items should be avoided.&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of Discrimination Coefficient vs. Discrimitation Index is that the former uses information from the whole population of learners, not just the extreme upper and lower thirds. Thus, this parameter may be more sensitive to detect item performance.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod/quiz.view.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Verilitlpicz: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;===Name/Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These are the descriptive fields in your quiz. In the Name field, write the name of the quiz that you wish it to be identified by. In the Introduction field, write the description of the quiz that students will see before attempting the quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Open/Close the quiz===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can specify times when the quiz is accessible for people to make attempts. Before the opening time, and after the closing time, the quiz will be unavailable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Time limit===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By default, quizzes do not have a time limit, which allows students as much time as they need to complete the quiz. If you do specify a time limit, several things are done to try and ensure that quizzes are completed within that time:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Javascript support in the browser becomes mandatory - this allows the timer to work correctly. &lt;br /&gt;
# A floating timer window is shown with a countdown &lt;br /&gt;
# When the timer has run out, the quiz is submitted automatically with whatever answers have been filled in so far &lt;br /&gt;
# If a student manages to cheat and spends more than 60 seconds over the allotted time then the quiz is automatically graded zero &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Questions per page===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For longer quizzes it makes sense to stretch the quiz over several pages by limiting the number of questions per page. When adding questions to the quiz page breaks will automatically be inserted according to the setting you choose here. However you will also be able to move page breaks around by hand later on the editing page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Shuffle questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable this option, then the order of questions in the quiz will be randomly shuffled each time a student attempts the quiz. This is not related to the use of Random Questions, this is only about the displayed order of questions. The intention is to make it a little harder for students to copy from each other.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Shuffle answers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable this option, then the order of answers within each question will be randomly shuffled each time a student attempts this quiz. Of course, this only applies to questions that have multiple answers displayed, such as Multiple Choice or Matching Questions. The intention is simply to make it a little harder for students to copy from each other. This option is not related to the use of Random Questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Attempts allowed===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Students may be allowed to have multiple attempts at a quiz. This can help make the process of taking the quiz more of an educational activity rather than simply an assessment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Each attempt builds on the last===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If multiple attempts are allowed and this setting is set to Yes, then each new attempt contains the results of the previous attempt. This allows a quiz to be completed over several attempts. To show a fresh quiz on every attempt, select No for this setting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Grading method===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When multiple attempts are allowed, there are different ways you can use the grades to calculate the student&#039;s final grade for the quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Highest grade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The final grade is the highest (best) grade in any attempt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Average grade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The final grade is the average (simple mean) grade of all attempts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* First grade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The final grade is the grade gained on the first attempt (other attempts are ignored).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Last grade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The final grade is the grade gained on the most recent attempt only.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Adaptive mode===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you choose Yes for this option then the student will be allowed multiple responses to a question even within the same attempt at the quiz. So for example if the student&#039;s response is marked as incorrect the student will be allowed to try again immediately. However a penalty will usually be subtracted from the students score for each wrong attempt (the amount of penalty is determined by the penalty factor, set by the next option).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This mode also allows adaptive questions that can change themselves in response to a student&#039;s answer. Here is how the IMS QTI specification defines adaptive questions (items):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An adaptive item is an item that adapts either its appearance, its scoring (Response Processing) or both in response to each of the candidate&#039;s attempts. For example, an adaptive item may start by prompting the candidate with a box for free-text entry but, on receiving an unsatisfactory answer, present a simple choice interaction instead and award fewer marks for subsequently identifying the correct response. Adaptivity allows authors to create items for use in formative situations which both help to guide candidates through a given task while also providing an outcome that takes into consideration their path &lt;br /&gt;
In adaptive mode an additional Submit button is shown for each question. If the student presses this button then the response to that particular question is submitted to be scored and the mark achieved is displayed to the student. If the question is an adaptive question then it is displayed in its new state that takes the student&#039;s answer into account and will in many cases ask the student for another input. In the simplest adaptive questions this new state may differ only in the feedback text and prompt the student to try again; in more complicated question also the question text and even the interaction elements can change. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Apply penalties===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a quiz is run in adaptive mode then a student is allowed to try again after a wrong response. In this case you may want to impose a penalty for each wrong response to be subtracted from the final mark for the question. The amount of penalty is chosen individually for each question when setting up or editing the question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This setting has no effect unless the quiz is run in adaptive mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Decimal points===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By using this setting you can select the number of decimals to be showed in the grade of every attempt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Students may review===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option controls whether and when students will be able to review their past attempts at this quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Students may review responses, scores, feedback or answers immediately after the attempt, while the quiz is still open or after the quiz is closed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Show quiz in a &amp;quot;secure&amp;quot; window===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;quot;secure&amp;quot; window tries to provide a little more security for quizzes (making copying and cheating more difficult) by restricting some of the things that students can do with their browsers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What happens is that: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Javascript is made a requirement. &lt;br /&gt;
# The quiz appears in a new fullscreen window. &lt;br /&gt;
# Some mouse actions on the text are prevented. &lt;br /&gt;
# Some keyboard commands are prevented. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NOTE: This security is NOT watertight. Do NOT rely on these protections as your sole strategy. It is impossible to implement complete protection of quizzes in a web environment so please do not rely on this option if you are really worried about students cheating. Other strategies you can try are to create really large databases of questions from which you randomly choose questions, or even better, rethink your overall assessment to put more value on constructive forms of activity such as forum discussions, glossary building, wiki writing, workshops, assignments etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Require password===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This field is optional. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you specify a password in here then participants must enter the same password before they are allowed to make an attempt on the quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Require network address===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This field is optional.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can restrict access for a quiz to particular subnets on the LAN or Internet by specifying a comma-separated list of partial or full IP address numbers. This is especially useful for a proctored quiz, where you want to be sure that only people in a certain room are able to access the quiz. For example: 192.168. , 231.54.211.0/20, 231.3.56.211&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are three types of numbers you can use (you can not use text based domain names like example.com): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Full IP addresses, such as 192.168.10.1 which will match a single computer (or proxy). &lt;br /&gt;
# Partial addresses, such as 192.168 which will match anything starting with those numbers. &lt;br /&gt;
# CIDR notation, such as 231.54.211.0/20 which allows you to specify more detailed subnets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Spaces are ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Group mode===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be one of three levels: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* No groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Separate groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group can only see their own group, others are invisible &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Visible groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each group works in their own group, but can also see other groups &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be defined at two levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Activity level &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each activity that supports groups can also define its own grouping mode. If the course is set to [[Force group mode|&amp;quot;force group mode&amp;quot;]] then the setting for each activity is ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Visible to students===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can also decide on whether or not the quiz will be seen by the students. You can hide the activity from students selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; in the Visible to students field. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/quiz/index.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (the page which aggregates all quizzes in a course)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the page where you can see all the quiz activities in the course, organized under four headings: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Topic&#039;&#039;&#039; - the number of the block, in which the given quiz appears&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Name&#039;&#039;&#039; - the name of the quiz&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Quiz closes&#039;&#039;&#039; - the date after which the quiz will be closed&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Attempts&#039;&#039;&#039; - if there have been any attempts at the quiz, you will see the text &#039;View reports for x attempts (y Students)&#039;, &#039;x&#039; being the number of attempts and &#039;y&#039; the number of students attempting at the quiz. Otherwise, the field will be empty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Quizzes which are not availble to students are show to teachers in grey.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Adding a new entry, you have to fill in two fields. Others are obligatory. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Concept&#039;&#039;&#039; (mandatory) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you should insert the word/concept, the definition of which you wish to create.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Definition&#039;&#039;&#039; (mandatory) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As its name suggests, this field should contain the definition of the word/concept. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Keywords&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each entry in the glossary can have an associated list of keywords (or aliases). Enter each alias on a new line (not separated by commas). The aliased words and phrases can be used as alternative ways to refer to the entry. For example, if you are using the glossary auto-linking filter then the aliases will be used (as well as the main name of the entry) when deciding what words to link to this entry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Categories&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The default setting is &#039;Not categorised&#039;. However, if you do add new categories, they will display here giving the possibility of choice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Enabling automatic linking in a entry&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Turning this feature on will allow the entry to be automatically linked, whenever the concept words and phrases appear throughout the rest of the same course. This includes forum postings, internal resources, week summaries and so on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you do not want particular text to be linked (in a forum posting, say) then you should add &amp;lt;nolink&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;/nolink&amp;gt; tags around the text.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To be able to turn on this feature, auto linking must be enabled at glossary level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Case sensitive matching&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This setting specifies whether matching exact upper and lower case is necessary when performing automatic linking to these entries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, if this is turned on, then a word like &amp;quot;html&amp;quot; in a forum posting will NOT be linked to a glossary entry called &amp;quot;HTML&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Whole words matching&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If automatic linking is enabled, then turning this setting on will force only whole words to be linked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, a glossary entry named &amp;quot;construct&amp;quot; will not create a link inside the word &amp;quot;constructivism&amp;quot;.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Adding a new glossary to the course, you will define several fields: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Name/Description=== &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you should describe the purpose of the glossary, provide instructions or background information, links etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
===Entries shown per page===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This defines the number of entries shown per page. The glossary can be configured to restrict the number of entries shown per page. If you have a large number of automatically-linked entries you should set this number lower to prevent long loading times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glossary Type===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you can decide whether the glossary will be main or secondary. The glossary system allows you to export entries from any secondary glossary to the main one of the course. In order to do this, you should specify which glossary is the main one. You can only have one main glossary per course and only teachers are allowed to update it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Students can add entries===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This lets you specify whether a student can or cannot add, edit or delete his/her own entries. Entries exported to a main glossary can be updated or deleted by teachers only, so this setting only applies to secondary glossaries. (Note: A teacher can edit or delete any entry at any time.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Duplicated entries allowed===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Turning that on allows multiple entries to use the same concept name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow comments on entries===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That allows students to add comments to glossary entries. You can choose whether this feature is enabled or disabled. Teachers always can add comments to glossary entries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow print view===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That allows students to use the print view of the glossary. You can choose whether this feature is enabled or disabled. Teachers always can use the print view.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Automatically link glossary entries===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Turning that on allows individual entries in this glossary to be automatically linked whenever the concept words and phrases appear throughout the rest of the same course. This includes forum postings, internal resources, week summaries and so on. Note that enabling linking for the glossary does not automatically turn on linking for each entry - linking needs to be set for each entry individually. If you do not want particular text to be linked (in a forum posting, say) then you should add &amp;lt;nolink&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;/nolink&amp;gt; tags around the text. Note that category names are also linked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Approved by default===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That allows the teacher to define what happens to new entries added by students. They can be automatically made available to everyone, otherwise the teacher will have to approve each one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Display format===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That specifies the way that each entry will be shown within the glossary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The default formats are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Simple Dictionary &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That looks like a conventional dictionary with separate entries. No authors are displayed and attachments are shown as links. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Continuous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That shows the entries one after other without any kind of separation but the editing icons. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Full with Author&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A forum-like display format showing author&#039;s data. Attachments are shown as links. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Full without Author&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A forum-like display format that does not show author&#039;s data. Attachments are shown as links. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Encyclopedia &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like &#039;Full with Author&#039; but attached images are shown inline. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* FAQ &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Useful for displaying lists of Frequently Asked Questions. It automatically appends the words QUESTION and ANSWER in the concept and definition respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Browsing options in Alphabet Display===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can customize the way a user can browse a glossary. Browsing and searching are always available, but you can define three more options:&lt;br /&gt;
# SHOW SPECIAL Enable or disable browsing by special characters like @, #, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
# SHOW ALPHABET Enable or disable browsing by alphabetic letters.&lt;br /&gt;
# SHOW ALL Enable or disable browsing of all entries at once.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow entries to be rated===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As in forums, you can allow entries to be rated. Here you will have to consider enabling two options: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Use ratings====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you decide to rate posts on the forum, you will have to define settings of the three following aspects: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Users&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want everybody to rate posts, choose &#039;Everyone can rate posts&#039;. Otherwise, pick &#039;Only teachers can rate posts&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* View&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to keep the grades known only to the individual students graded, you should choose the option &#039;Students can only see their own ratings&#039;. If there is no such a need, opt for &#039;Students can see everyone&#039;s ratings&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Grade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several grading scales you can choose from. You can give a number of points to each post (from 1 to 100) or you can opt for two other scales: &#039;&#039;&#039;Scale: satisfactory&#039;&#039;&#039; (Outstanding, Satisfactory and Not satisfactory) or &#039;&#039;&#039;Separate and Connected ways of knowing&#039;&#039;&#039; (Mostly Connected Knowing, Separate and Connected, Mostly Separate Knowing). More information about the latter one are to be found [[Separate and Connected ways of knowing|here]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Restrict ratings to posts with dates in this range====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable the &#039;&#039;&#039;Use ratings&#039;&#039;&#039; option, you will also face the necessity of choosing whether or not enable another option restricting ratings to posts in terms of time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Visible to students===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can also decide on whether or not the glossary will be seen by the students. You can hide the activity from students by selecting &#039;Hide&#039;. It is useful if you don&#039;t want to make the activity available immediately&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/forum/subscribers.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (where the teacher can subscribe and unsubscribe students to/from a forum)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a person is subscribed to a forum it means that they will be sent email copies of every post in that forum (posts are sent about 30 minutes after the post was first written).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People can usually choose whether or not they want to be subscribed to each forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, if a teacher forces subscription on a particular forum then this choice is taken away and everyone in the class will get email copies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is especially useful in the News forum and in forums towards the beginning of the course (before everyone has worked out that they can subscribe to these emails themselves).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Choosing Everyone can choose to be subscribed enables you to check (and modify) the number of subscribers (&#039;Show/edit current subscribers&#039;) and to subscribe to (or unsubscribe from) the forum (&#039;Subscribe to this forum&#039; / &#039;Unsubscribe from this forum&#039;).&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/forum/discuss.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (when viewing a discussion thread)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So far, a discussion thread can be displayed in four ways. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Display replies flat, with oldest first&#039;&#039;&#039; - the discussion will be displayed in one line and the chronological order from the oldest to the newest&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Display replies flat, with newest first&#039;&#039;&#039; - the discussion will be displayed in one line and the chronological order from the newest to the oldest&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Display replies in threaded form&#039;&#039;&#039; - only the post starting the discussion will be displayed in its full form; replies will be reduced to the headlines (including information about its author and date of release) and organized chronologically; moreover, replies will be shifted towards the right so that only replies to the same post were in the same line &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Display replies in nested form&#039;&#039;&#039; - all posts are displayed in their full forms; replies will be reduced to the headlines (including information about its author and date of release) and organized chronologically; moreover, replies will be shifted towards the right so that only replies to the same post were in the same line&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can also move the whole discussion to any other forum in the course. To do that, use the &#039;Move this discussion to...&#039; field posited in the right-side corner above the discussion thread.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/forum/view.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (when viewing a forum)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What you can see under the introduction text to the forum depends on which of the three options you have chosen in the &#039;&#039;&#039;Forum type&#039;&#039;&#039; field while [[course/mod/forum|creating the forum]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# If you have chosen &#039;&#039;&#039;A single simple discussion&#039;&#039;&#039;, you will see the text you have written at the &#039;Forum introduction&#039; space while creating the forum as the first post of the discussion: there will be a heading, which is the forum name, the information about the author and its date. Below you will find the replies that have been posted (if there are any). &lt;br /&gt;
# If you have chosen &#039;&#039;&#039;Standard forum for general use&#039;&#039;&#039;, you will see the introduction text in a separate space above the discussion field, in which you will the information such as the title of the discussion (which means the forum&#039;s title), its author, the number of replies and the date of the last post. &lt;br /&gt;
# Choosing &#039;&#039;&#039;Each person posts one discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; the view will be basically the same as in the previous case, the only difference being the &#039;Add a new discussion&#039; option. Viewing a forum page, you will see the text you have written at the &#039;Forum introduction&#039; space while creating the forum, and, if there are any, the discussions that have been started. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In all cases, above the introduction to the forum you will find options concerning [[Mod/forum/subscribers|subscription to the forum]] as well as the &#039;Update the forum&#039; button and the &#039;Jump to&#039; field, with which you can &#039;jump&#039; to any part of the course.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a forum&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Creating or editing a forum activity, you will fill in the following data: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the forum (e.g. &amp;quot;Favourite colour&amp;quot;), which will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, there are three forum types to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;A single simple discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - a single topic discussion developed on one page, which is useful for short focussed discussions&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Standard forum for general use&#039;&#039;&#039; - an open forum where anyone can start a new topic at any time; this is the best general-purpose forum&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Each person posts one discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - each person can post exactly one new discussion topic (everyone can reply to them though); this is useful when you want each student to start a discussion about, say, their reflections on the week&#039;s topic, and everyone else responds to these&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum introduction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the forum here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the forum and, if necessary, the grading criteria.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Can a student post to this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows you to restrict students from posting new content in this forum. Again you have three options to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Discussions and replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039; This option leaves students unrestricted, which is the case for most forums. Thus, you choose to allow them to start new discussion topics (threads), and also to post replies within those threads.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, but replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039; This option should be chosen the option if only teachers are to be allowed to start new discussions. Students will still be allowed to reply within those threads (for example within the news forum on the site home page). &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, no replies&#039;&#039;&#039; Choosing this option babs students from starting new discussion topics and replying within those threads. This is useful for the News forum when you only want teachers to post new items that appear on the course main page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Force everyone to be subscribed?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a person is subscribed to a forum it means that they will be sent email copies of every post in that forum (posts are sent about 30 minutes after the post was first written). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People can usually choose whether or not they want to be subscribed to each forum. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, if you choose to force subscription on a particular forum then all course users will be subscribed automatically, even those that enrol at a later time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is especially useful in the News forum and in forums towards the beginning of the course (before everyone has worked out that they can subscribe to these emails themselves). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you choose the option &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; then all current and future course users will be subscribed initially but they can unsubscribe themselves at any time. If you choose &amp;quot;Yes, forever&amp;quot; then they will not be able to unsubscribe themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note how the &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; option behaves when you update an existing forum: Changing from &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; will not unsubscribe existing users, it will only affect future course users. Similarly changing later to &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; will not subscribe existing course users but only those enrolling later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Read tracking for this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If &#039;read tracking&#039; for forums is enabled, users can track read and unread messages in forums and discussions. The instructor can choose to force a tracking type on a forum using this setting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are three choice for this setting:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Optional [default]&#039;&#039;&#039; - students can turn tracking on or off for the forum at their discretion &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;On&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always on&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Off&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always off&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Maximum attachment size==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Attachments can be limited to a certain size file, chosen by the person who set up the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it is possible to upload a file larger than this size, but the file will not be saved on the server and you might see an error.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allow posts to be rated?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you will have to consider whether or not enable two options: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Use ratings====&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
If you decide to rate posts on the forum, you will have to define settings of the three following aspects: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Users&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want everybody to rate posts, choose &#039;Everyone can rate posts&#039;. Otherwise, pick &#039;Only teachers can rate posts&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;View&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to keep the grades known only to the individual students graded, you should choose the option &#039;Students can only see their own ratings&#039;. If there is no such a need, opt for &#039;Students can see everyone&#039;s ratings&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grade&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several grading scales you can choose from. You can give a number of points to each post (from 1 to 100) or you can opt for two other scales: &#039;&#039;&#039;Scale: satisfactory&#039;&#039;&#039; (Outstanding, Satisfactory and Not satisfactory) or &#039;&#039;&#039;Separate and Connected ways of knowing&#039;&#039;&#039; (Mostly Connected Knowing, Separate and Connected, Mostly Separate Knowing). More information about the latter one are to be found [[Separate and Connected ways of knowing|here]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Restrict ratings to posts with dates in this range====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable the &#039;&#039;&#039;Use ratings&#039;&#039;&#039; option, you will also face the necessity of choosing whether or not enable another option restricting ratings to posts in terms of time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Group mode==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sets the group mode of the choice activity to one of the following three:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# no groups&lt;br /&gt;
# separate groups&lt;br /&gt;
# visible groups&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Visible to students==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can hide the activity from students by selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; here. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a forum&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Creating or editing a forum activity, you will fill in the following data: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the forum (e.g. &amp;quot;Favourite colour&amp;quot;), which will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, there are three forum types to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;A single simple discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - a single topic discussion developed on one page, which is useful for short focussed discussions&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum introduction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the forum here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the forum and, if necessary, the grading criteria.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Can a student post to this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows you to restrict students from posting new content in this forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For most forums you will want to leave students unrestricted, for which you should choose the first option (&#039;&#039;&#039;Discussions and replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039;). Thus, you will choose to allow them to start new discussion topics (threads), and also to post replies within those threads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes, however, you will want to disable this ability. For example, this is useful for the News forum when you only want teachers to post new items that appear on the course main page. In this case you might choose the third option &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, no replies&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes you might want to only allow teachers to start new discussions, but still allow students to reply within those threads (for example within the news forum on the site home page). In this case you would choose the second option, &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, but replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Force everyone to be subscribed?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a person is subscribed to a forum it means that they will be sent email copies of every post in that forum (posts are sent about 30 minutes after the post was first written). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This is especially useful in the News forum and in forums towards the beginning of the course (before everyone has worked out that they can subscribe to these emails themselves). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you choose the option &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; then all current and future course users will be subscribed initially but they can unsubscribe themselves at any time. If you choose &amp;quot;Yes, forever&amp;quot; then they will not be able to unsubscribe themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note how the &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; option behaves when you update an existing forum: Changing from &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; will not unsubscribe existing users, it will only affect future course users. Similarly changing later to &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; will not subscribe existing course users but only those enrolling later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
If &#039;read tracking&#039; for forums is enabled, users can track read and unread messages in forums and discussions. The instructor can choose to force a tracking type on a forum using this setting. &lt;br /&gt;

# &#039;&#039;&#039;Off&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always off&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Maximum attachment size==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Attachments can be limited to a certain size file, chosen by the person who set up the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it is possible to upload a file larger than this size, but the file will not be saved on the server and you might see an error.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allow posts to be rated?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you will have to consider whether or not enable two options: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Use ratings====&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
If you decide to rate posts on the forum, you will have to define settings of the three following aspects: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Users&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want everybody to rate posts, choose &#039;Everyone can rate posts&#039;. Otherwise, pick &#039;Only teachers can rate posts&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;View&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to keep the grades known only to the individual students graded, you should choose the option &#039;Students can only see their own ratings&#039;. If there is no such a need, opt for &#039;Students can see everyone&#039;s ratings&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grade&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several grading scales you can choose from. You can give a number of points to each post (from 1 to 100) or you can opt for two other scales: &#039;&#039;&#039;Scale: satisfactory&#039;&#039;&#039; (Outstanding, Satisfactory and Not satisfactory) or &#039;&#039;&#039;Separate and Connected ways of knowing&#039;&#039;&#039; (Mostly Connected Knowing, Separate and Connected, Mostly Separate Knowing). More information about the latter one are to be found [[Separate and Connected ways of knowing|here]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Restrict ratings to posts with dates in this range====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable the &#039;&#039;&#039;Use ratings&#039;&#039;&#039; option, you will also face the necessity of choosing whether or not enable another option restricting ratings to posts in terms of time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Group mode==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sets the group mode of the choice activity to one of the following three:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# no groups&lt;br /&gt;
# separate groups&lt;br /&gt;
# visible groups&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Visible to students==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can hide the activity from students by selecting &amp;quot;Hide&amp;quot; here. It is useful if you wouldn&#039;t like to make the activity available immediately.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/course/mod.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 when adding a forum&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Creating or editing a forum activity, you will fill in the following data: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the forum (e.g. &amp;quot;Favourite colour&amp;quot;). This will be displayed on the course homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, there are three forum types to choose from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;A single simple discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - a single topic discussion developed on one page, which is useful for short, focussed discussions&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Standard forum for general use&#039;&#039;&#039; - an open forum where anyone can start a new topic at any time; this is the best general-purpose forum&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Each person posts one discussion&#039;&#039;&#039; - each person can post exactly one new discussion topic (everyone can reply to them though); this is useful when you want each student to start a discussion about, say, their reflections on the week&#039;s topic, and everyone else responds to these&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Forum introduction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Type the description of the forum here. Include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the forum and, if necessary, the grading criteria.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Can a student post to this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows you to restrict students from posting new content in this forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For most forums you will want to leave students unrestricted, for which you should choose the first option (&#039;&#039;&#039;Discussions and replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039;). Thus, you will choose to allow them to start new discussion topics (threads), and also to post replies within those threads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes, however, you will want to disable this ability. For example, this is useful for the News forum when you only want teachers to post new items that appear on the course main page. In this case you might choose the third option &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, no replies&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes you might want to only allow teachers to start new discussions, but still allow students to reply within those threads (for example within the news forum on the site home page). In this case you would choose the second option, &#039;&#039;&#039;No discussions, but replies are allowed&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Force everyone to be subscribed?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a person is subscribed to a forum it means that they will be sent email copies of every post in that forum (posts are sent about 30 minutes after the post was first written). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People can usually choose whether or not they want to be subscribed to each forum. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, if you choose to force subscription on a particular forum then all course users will be subscribed automatically, even those that enrol at a later time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is especially useful in the News forum and in forums towards the beginning of the course (before everyone has worked out that they can subscribe to these emails themselves). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you choose the option &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; then all current and future course users will be subscribed initially but they can unsubscribe themselves at any time. If you choose &amp;quot;Yes, forever&amp;quot; then they will not be able to unsubscribe themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note how the &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; option behaves when you update an existing forum: Changing from &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; will not unsubscribe existing users, it will only affect future course users. Similarly changing later to &amp;quot;Yes, initially&amp;quot; will not subscribe existing course users but only those enrolling later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Read tracking for this forum?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If &#039;read tracking&#039; for forums is enabled, users can track read and unread messages in forums and discussions. The instructor can choose to force a tracking type on a forum using this setting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are three choice for this setting:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Optional [default]&#039;&#039;&#039; - students can turn tracking on or off for the forum at their discretion &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;On&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always on&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Off&#039;&#039;&#039; - tracking is always off&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Maximum attachment size==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Attachments can be limited to a certain size file, chosen by the person who set up the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it is possible to upload a file larger than this size, but the file will not be saved on the server and you might see an error.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allow posts to be rated?==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you will have to consider whether or not enable two options: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Use ratings====&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
If you decide to rate posts on the forum, you will have to define settings of the three following aspects: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Users&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want everybody to rate posts, choose &#039;Everyone can rate posts&#039;. Otherwise, pick &#039;Only teachers can rate posts&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* View&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to keep the grades known only to the individual students graded, you should choose the option &#039;Students can only see their own ratings&#039;. If there is no such a need, opt for &#039;Students can see everyone&#039;s ratings&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Grade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several grading scales you can choose from. You can give a number of points to each post (from 1 to 100) or you can opt for two other scales: &#039;&#039;&#039;Scale: satisfactory&#039;&#039;&#039; (Outstanding, Satisfactory and Not satisfactory) or &#039;&#039;&#039;Separate and Connected ways of knowing&#039;&#039;&#039; (Mostly Connected Knowing, Separate and Connected, Mostly Separate Knowing). More information about the latter one are to be found [[Separate and Connected ways of knowing|here]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Restrict ratings to posts with dates in this range====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you enable the &#039;&#039;&#039;Use ratings&#039;&#039;&#039; option, you will also face the necessity of choosing whether or not enable another option restricting ratings to posts in terms of time. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Group mode==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sets the group mode of the choice activity to one of the following three:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* no groups&lt;br /&gt;
* separate groups&lt;br /&gt;
* visible groups&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what can be seen on the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;moodlesite.com/mod/forum/index.php&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; page&lt;br /&gt;
 (the page which aggregates all forums in a course)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the page where you can see all the forum activities in the course. They are divided into two main categories: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;General forums&#039;&#039;&#039; (under which you will find the forums concerning the whole course) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Learning forums&#039;&#039;&#039; (the forums of the specific parts of the course: they are organized and numbered according to the course blocks they appear in). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Forums are organized under following headings: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Forum&#039;&#039;&#039; (the name of the forum)&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Description&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Discussions&#039;&#039;&#039; (the number of discussions started)&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Unread posts&#039;&#039;&#039; (the number of posts you have not read yet)&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Track&#039;&#039;&#039; (the &#039;yes/no&#039; information about your choice whether or not track the unread posts - if your choice is negative, you will find an &#039;-&#039; sign instead of the number of the posts unread)&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Subscribed&#039;&#039;&#039; (the &#039;yes/no&#039; information about your choice whether or not get the posts transferred to your mail box) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;RSS&#039;&#039;&#039; (the &#039;RSS&#039; (Really Simple Syndication) button; more information about RSS are to be found [[RSS in Forums|here]].&lt;br /&gt;

# &#039;&#039;&#039;Assignment type&#039;&#039;&#039; (a short description of the resource written in the Summary field while creating a resource activity) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Due date&#039;&#039;&#039; (the date after which the submission of assignments is not accepted) &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Submitted&#039;&#039;&#039; (under which you will see a line: &#039;View x submitted assignments&#039; where &#039;x&#039; is the number of the assignments submitted) &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;The process of creating a choice activity is divided into two stages. The first is the specification of the basic settings, including the assignment type. In the second one, you fill in the options specific for the type of assignment you are adding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first stage is filling in the following data:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Assignment name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the assignment. This will be displayed on the course&#039;s homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Description==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The description of the assignment, which should include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the assignment, the form, in which it should be submitted, the grading criteria, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Grade==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The grade for the assignment is here specified. Choosing a number will become the maximum grade for this assignment. Apart from the numbers, one of the descriptive grades which have been defined for this course can also be picked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Available from==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Setting this date bans students from submitting their assignments before this date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Due date==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And this bans students from submitting their assignments after this date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Prevent late submissions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Set to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot;, assignments submitted after the due date will be marked as late, but students will still be able to submit them. Set to &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot;, assignment submission will be blocked after the due date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Assignment type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are a growing number of assignment types available:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Offline activity&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This is useful when the assignment is performed outside of Moodle.

# &#039;&#039;&#039;Online text&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This assignment type asks users to edit a text, using the normal editing tools.

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;The process of creating a choice activity is divided into two stages. The first is the specification of the basic settings, including the assignment type. In the second one, you fill in the options specific for the type of assignment you are adding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first stage is filling in the following data:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Assignment name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short name of the assignment. This will be displayed on the course&#039;s homepage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Description==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The description of the assignment, which should include precise instructions for students regarding the subject of the assignment, the form, in which it should be submitted, the grading criteria, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Grade==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The grade for the assignment is here specified. Choosing a number will become the maximum grade for this assignment. Apart from the numbers, one of the descriptive grades which have been defined for this course can also be picked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Available from==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Setting this date bans students from submitting their assignments before this date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Due date==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And this bans students from submitting their assignments after this date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Prevent late submissions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Set to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot;, assignments submitted after the due date will be marked as late, but students will still be able to submit them. Set to &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot;, assignment submission will be blocked after the due date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Assignment type==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are a growing number of assignment types available:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Offline activity&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This is useful when the assignment is performed outside of Moodle. It could be something elsewhere on the web or face-to-face.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Students can see a description of the assignment, but can&#039;t upload files or anything. Grading works normally, and students will get notifications of their grades.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Online text&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This assignment type asks users to edit a text, using the normal editing tools. Teachers can grade them online, and even add inline comments or changes.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;(If you are familiar with older versions of Moodle, this Assignment type does the same thing as the old Journal module used to do.)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;The group mode can be one of three levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* No groups - there are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Separate groups - each group can only see their own group, others are invisible&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Visible groups - each group works in their own group, but can &lt;br /&gt;
also see other groups&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The group mode can be defined at two levels:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course level - the group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Activity level - each activity that supports groups can also define its own grouping mode. If the course is set to &amp;quot;force group mode&amp;quot; then the setting for each activity is ignored.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;Before using this block you have to configure it using the edit icon. There you will have a number of fields to complete: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Title===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you will write the title of that block. The defult is Random Glossary Entry. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Take entries from this glossary===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This allows you to choose from which glossary the entries in this block will be chosen. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Days before a new entry is chosen===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sets the number of days for how long that a given entry is &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===How a new entry is chosen===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You have three options: &#039;&#039;Last modified entry&#039;&#039; will always display the entry that was last modified, and &#039;&#039;Random entry&#039;&#039; will choose a new one at random every time. The option &#039;&#039;Next entry&#039;&#039; will cycle through the entries in order. This last option is especially useful when a number of days is also chosen, allowing you to make a Quote of the week or a Tip of the day that everyone sees.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Show concept (heading) for each entry===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enabling that option will show headings for each entry that appears in the block.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Links===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can display links to actions of the glossary this block is associated with. The block will only display links to actions which are enabled for that glossary. You can type texts to appear for whichever of the three options: &#039;&#039;Users can add entries to the glossary&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;Users can view the glossary but not add entries&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Users cannot edit or view the glossary&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

In the People box you will find Participants (i.e. students enrolled to your course). If you click on this, you will move to the page with the teachers&#039; and students&#039; accounts (the latter when the class has students). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Click on the “Activity” link (on the right-hand side) to see what that person has done in your class. To see all of the information on a person in your class, click on “Full profile” or on the picture (the smiley face in the example above). You should see a screen like this: To edit your personal information, click on “Edit profile.” For a more detailed description of this, please see below. You will notice a picture of an envelope next to your email address. If you click on the envelope, it disables all Moodle-generated email (from any discussion forums that you are subscribed to, etc.) from being sent to that address. This is a quick way to disable email from being sent to you when you are on vacation or the like.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Note for Contributors&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 This page should explain what the &#039;&#039;&#039;Calendar&#039;&#039;&#039; block is and how the calendar works&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This block allows to post significant events, relative to their account permissions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Site (event viewable in all courses - created by admin users)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course (event viewable only to course members - created by teachers)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Groups (event viewable only by members of a group - created by teachers)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* User (personal event a student user can create - viewable only by the user)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The calendar shows events happening in your classroom. Events are added to the calendar, and can be aimed at individual users, your defined groups, or your courses. Adding closing dates to assignments, forums, quizzes, etc. will cause them to show up in the calendar section. You can view previous or future months on Calendar by clicking the left/right arrows next to the current month’s name. Today’s date is always outlined in black. Other events are color coded based on what the event is (color key under Calendar). You can hide or show various categories of events by clicking on the color key. This can make the calendar easier to read (especially if there are many events on the calendar). For example, if you wanted to hide Group event dates (events assigned to learner Groups you create), click “Group events” on the bottom of the Calendar. This would hide all group events, and the color code would disappear from the link on the calendar. To show the events again, click the Group Events link again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both the daily detail screen and the monthly detail screen have the Preferences button in the upper right. This button leads to a screen like this: The last two settings (&#039;Maximum upcoming events&#039; and &#039;Upcoming events look-ahead&#039;) affect how the Upcoming Events block displays information. You may change any of these settings to suit your class needs. When you have finished any changes, click Save changes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both the daily and monthly detail screens have the New Event button. This allows you to manually add events for your classes (remember that the system will automatically add due dates for assignments, quizzes, etc. when you create those activities). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Steps To Adding A Calendar Event:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;1.&#039;&#039;&#039; Click month on Calendar to get an expanded month view. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;2.&#039;&#039;&#039; In Calendar view click the New Event button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;3.&#039;&#039;&#039; On a New Event page select the kind of a new event. It can be: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* User event (event unique to the user only)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Group event (if Groups are enabled, select group within course event is for)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Course event (for learners within the course only)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Site event (created by admin users only)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;4.&#039;&#039;&#039; After that you will set the event properties such as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Name – this can be anything you like, but probably should be short. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Description – this is the full details of the event. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Date – this sets the date and time of the event. The default is today’s date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Duration – this sets how long the event lasts. It can have no duration (the default), can last minutes, days, or more (by setting the date in the Until line), or can last a set number of minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Repeats – this field sets if the event repeats weekly or not. If it does repeat, you must set how many events to create. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After clicking Save changes the event will display within the Calendar block.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
