The Marking block is a Moodle block add-on that provides a summary of activities awaiting grading. It includes a separate page that provides an alternate gradebook functionality ties to the marking block. This block is restricted to teachers and administrators.

This block displays marking information for newly submitted, resubmitted, and overdue (activities past their defined close dates) activities. The marking page provides the same information and easy access to the grading functions for these activities.

This block cam also display a list of students below a certain grade level.

The block can be configured to display a maximum number of students in each list and to set the grade level to display below.

This directory uses custom code for all activities it summarizes. There are few common activity library functions that can perform the same operations, and thus any new activities to be added will need new code.

Installation

Template:Moodle 1.5 To install and use, unzip this file into your Moodle root directory making sure that you 'use folder names'. This will add a new block directory (marking) to your '/blocks' directory and some language files to your langage directory. Once unzipped, visit your admin screen and configure the new block the way you want.
