| Forum ratings allow users to evaluate posts in a forum.
| |
| | |
| Forum ratings use [[Scales]] to standardize the reporting of performance. A forum rating can be included as part of a student's [[Grades|grade]]. For example, a teacher might use a custom rating scale in a forum and allow students to rate forum posts.
| |
| | |
| Forum ratings must be allowed and the potential rater must have [[Roles|role]] permission. [[Teachers]] by default have this ability. The teacher role is also able to give permission to a [[Student|student role]] in a specific forum to be able to assign a rating to a post. Forum settings and [[Forum_permissions#Enabling_students_to_rate_posts| Enabling student ratings]] has more information.
| |
| | |
| ==How to use==
| |
| When rating is allowed, the qualified user will see "Rate this post" and a pull down menu after an entry (not their own). The menu displays a [[Scales|scale]] that the forum creator selected in the [[Adding/editing_a_forum#Grade|Forum grade settings]]. The user can rate more than one post at a time. When finished they should click the "submit my ratings" button at the bottom of the page.

| ==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 the scale you use. Perhaps create a scale that uses both numbers and words.
