Development talk:Activity Locking
Purpose of page
I think others have an idea, but some of us are confused about what is what. I am going through the condiditional activity forum to track what has been posted. I started with the summary of Alvin Shaffer - Wednesday, 21 June 2006, 08:18 AM as the outline. Comments placed here are out of context and were made by others in the forum threads listed below. I would like to see the link to the best versions 1.5.3 and 1.6 versions of AL placed on the article page.--Chris collman 19:13, 23 June 2006 (WST)
AL 3.0 is conditional based vs AL 2.1 being more straight forward AL based.

Future of Conditional Activities
Let's use this to brainstorm additional features of conditional activities we would like to see as well.--N Hansen 20:18, 25 June 2006 (WST)
One feature that is missing is related to choice module. Making a lock dependent on a choice module instance only makes it so that the student has to view the choice, not actually make a choice. It seems that answering the choice should be required.
Locking a topic is an all-or-nothing proposition. If you lock at topic, you cannot have individual conditions on locking of the items inside that topic. It would be nice if this were not the case.
