Gradebook

Old template

New template Template:Gradebook
keep the existing redirect from Grades
General overview, link to glossary of terms? Need a good menu on this page...
Gradebook, redirected from Grades - OU, Dec 10, 1.9 VI, large menu on the side needs a review, rich but confusing for a newcomer,
need to make this whole section a lot more user/teacher-friendly (eg. 'pushed by a module' means little or nothing to thousands who (will)
land here, need lots of links to examples.
General_grade_settings - OU, Feb 11, 1.9 VI, combine with Gradebook for a better overview
Grade_permissions - O, Jan 11, site/course/module level links to capabilities. Incorporate this/link to?
Development:Grades#API_for_communication_with_modules.2Fblocks - developers only, link may be handy though
related
Simplifying_the_gradebook_by_changing_permissions - OU, handy but need to be fairly advanced before you can 'simplify'...?

Grade items

= 'grading individual activities'
Grade_items - OU, Aug 10, 1.9 VI, good breakdown (Activity, Outcome, Manual) but need to clear up & offer examples (!) 
Grade_calculations - O, Dec 10, averages, sums, weightings ... link to example(s) would be good
Edit_grade_calculation re-directed to Grade_calculations but not sure if that's where I'd go for editing...

has pics but examples would be good
Category_aggregation - GC, Dec 10, 1.9 VI, good, include it, good note about 'empty grades'
Grade_category_settings - OU, Jan 11, 1.9 VI, from Admin menu, useful to pull some of these things to 'Advanced' for teachers, even though
Admin is the person to do it. Optional

Scales

=  'rating answers and contributions'
Scales - GU, Jun 10, good but must mention use for Ratings_2.0, also automatic entry of ratings to GB + only Teacher can edit (by default, 
can change), good for student/peer feedback if students able 
Ratings_2.0 - GC, Sep 10, just need a link to example or two, add some 'creative uses'

Outcomes

= 'creating standards of competency'
Outcomes - OU, Jul 10, 1.9 VI, need to clear this up...outcome is not like a (numerical, letter) grade. It's a statement that a person can
do something (eg. ride a bike), not necessarily how well they do it (eg. 73% well). OK, the link with scales ... test this! Maybe I am being
picky because I used outcomes extensively in schools and they never lent themselves well to classical 'grading'
Outcomes_report - OU, Jul 10, here it is again... how can you have an 'average of outcomes'? (can fly aeroplane, can't drive car - 
what's the average? ... arrrrgh
Metadata - redirect from Development: Outcomes - explained rationale, borrow and link

Grade_letters - GU, Sep 10, pretty good, has pics, 1.9 VI

Course completion report

= 'check completion and progress in a course' 
M,  -> page URL still pointing to blank Doc course/report/completion/index
related is Course_completion_status_block - G, Feb 11, good start, pic included, maybe a link to example, scenario? Essential link to 
Course_completion 
Development:Course_completion - U, May 10, pre-Moodle 2 release, handy to see where it came from...but not essential, maybe a See also item

Logs

- 'check all activities by user in a course'
Logs report redirect from course/report/log/index - GU, Sep 08, has both teacher and admin log reports together, just check for currency and accuracy
since this was last updated in 2008

Activity report

Activity report URL redirect from course/report/outline/index - GU, Sep 09, check this for accuracy and currency in Moodle 2

Participation report

Participation report redirect from course/report/participation/index - GU, Jan 10, just check for currency and accuracy in Moodle 2

Statistics URL redirect course/report/stats/index - G, Jan 11, just check, very good

Overview report

= 'see progress in several courses'
An Admin & Manager item but useful to know for a teacher
From here simply link to article on Overview Report in Managing Moodle site section, details there
Overview_report - PU, Aug 10, 1.9 VI, not sure about some of the statements made, must mention handy for default Manager in Moodle 2 
to get an overview of how students are doing across courses, not automatically available to teachers in a course

Managing content

brief intro, main points and links 
Docs Category:Moodle_2.0 - useful for links
also handy starting point(s): 

Working with files and folders

main points, flag what is in this section... refer to items on template, brief background can be drawn from
Files, also handy [[Course_files and. This page is NOT to explain EVERYTHING, it's an intro, expanded
on pages linked to in the text and/or the template menu.

File handling

File_handling_2.0 - GC, Jan 11, great start on FAQ, will need an entire section on this, need a page on FTP... 

File bank

File_bank - GU, Dec 10, main concepts linked to, pre and 2.0 mentioned, organising page for this section?

File picker

File_picker - OU, Jan 11, good start, has pics, link to Filepicker FAQ, improve the table of contents on this page
File_picker_FAQ - Mar 11, some good common questions to start with, answers need some work... 

Private files

Private_files - GU, Jan 11, basics OK, give examples why/when would one use Private files (and not)
My_private_files_block - related, only a stub with a sentence ATM

Legacy course files

useful references:
Course_files - GC, Jan 11, good explanations, again - maybe we could incorporate this in some sort of FAQ, important to leave
Legacy_course_files - OU, while correct, the sentence 'use repositories rather than course area files..' will set many off :P

Differences between Moodle 1.x and 2.x

Many links to the above: file handling, filepicker, private files etc
this section will need to be very, very good and clear thanks to a lot of heat in the community on this issue.
Useful references to (the past):
Course_files - GC, Jan 11, good explanations, useful references, workflows
Legacy_course_files - useful, stress that this is a plugin that Admin decides to turn on-offfor the entire site.

Working with media

Multimedia_plugins - GU, Mar 11, solid but need to clean up and organise better, perhaps briefly explain why have these
(convenience, security...)

Video

M, we don't have a generic, introductory 'Video in Moodle' page?
get info from content section on uploading & repos, multimedia plugins and forum discussions, and of course create anew
do we have a new player?

Audio

Audio_in_Moodle - GU, Oct 10, very good, handy links, organise and clean up, check references to tools/plugins etc not 
supported or mentioned here, 
MP3_player - OU, Jul 09, handy although a bit long, re-organise & check for compatibility in Moodle 2
Speech_tools - Nov 08, looking at a title, I thought I was to do with Accessibility (as in Text-to-Speech & reverse)... 
consider renaming/redirecting and re-linking this
Podcasting - GU, Dec 10, basics very useful, check those tools listed for availability & compatibility, 'Podcast' module is 
contrib, not sure if compatible with M2

Images

M, don't have an organising page for images and Moodle
mention TinyMCE, Flickr, find ...

Embedding content

M, linked to HTML editor probably, media plugins, outline ways, pros and cons of embedding various things (eg iframes etc)
we don't have a 'unifying' page on embedding stuff in Moodle - would be very useful as a reference since embedding is so common

Editing text

brief intro, key links and intros to what is in this section.

HTML editor

HTML_editor_2.0 - GC, Dec 10, also useful is the old HTML editor
mention HTML tags in activity names + smileys (all in HTML Settings item for Admins to turn on/off ...)
Text_editors - OU,Dec 10, TinyMCE linked,  

Formatting text

Formatting_text - GU, Nov 10, just check this for accuracy and currency with Moodle 2
Has (links to & explained) Moodle auto-format, HTML format, Plain text format, Markdown format

Filters

pointed to Filters_2.0, also very useful overview from Filters
Filters are in this section because they filter/do something with content... 
each filter to come with 'what is it used for', 'how to' and examples, links, screenshots wherever possible
Filters - GU, Jan 11, useful containing links to different filters and general info on filters
Filters_2.0 - GU, Dec 10, good general info copied from Filters and updated with things like course level (new in M2) etc, 
could perhaps do with a menu on the side, check for accuracy and how well filters are working in 2.0 (from memory there were 
problems with maths notation filter...)   
Filters_FAQ - OU, Dec 10, can be expanded
Development:Filter_enable/disable_by_context - important feature & good to get background for those writing the article
Text Filters forum

Activity names auto-linking

mentioned and single line on Filters

Algebra notation

Algebra_filter - OU, Jan 11, bit technical but useful, an image/example of use would be great

be obfuscated for privacy reasons...
