| Forum ratings allow users to evaluate posts in a forum.
| |
| | |
| ==How to use==
| |
| If a user has mod/forum:rate ("Rate posts") = Allow in a forum context, the user will be able to rate posts in that forum (see below). Note that the predefined Teacher role has mod/forum:rate ("Rate posts") = Allow, while the predefined Student role has mod/forum:rate ("Rate posts") = Not set. As a result, only teachers are allowed to rate forum posts by default. To allow students to rate posts, see [[Forum_permissions#Enabling_students_to_rate_posts | enabling students to rate posts]].
| |
| | |
| A user who is allowed to rate posts will see, at the end of each post (except, of course, for his own posts) a label "Rate this post" with a pulldown menu. The menu displays a [[Scales|scale]] that the forum creator selected in the [[Adding/editing_a_forum#Grade|Forum grade settings]]. The rating can become part of the [[Grades|Gradebook]].

| ==Tips and Tricks==
| |
| *Not all your students are seeing stars? It is all about their browser settings, language and installed fonts.
| |
| **If this is a problem, stick with the basics in you scale. Perhaps create a scale that uses Numbers and words.
