iAssign (interactive Assignment) package aims to enhance activities in Moodle, allowing the incorporation of "interactive Learning Moodle" (iLM) to Moodle. iAssign also provides: an area to teachers cooperate; a filter to incorporate any iLM in any Moodle text; and a modified TinyMCE editor. Some of the iLM that comes with iAssign are: iGeom, iGraf and iComb.
Introduction
This is the iAssign (Interactive Assignment) package, an iMath free system to enrich activities in Moodle. It is created by Leônidas de Oliveira Brandão and Patricia Rodrigues.
iAssign's goal is to increase interactivity in activities related to specific subjects (such as Geometry, Functions, Programming,...) in a flexible way.
In order to improve interactivity, iAssign makes use of iLM (interactive Learning Module), that is any interactive tool that runs under a Web browser. Typically an iLM is a Java applet or an HTML5 package with a few (mandatory) communication methods, all based on HTTP protocol. This implies that any applet can easily became an iLM and can be integrated to Moodle under iAssign package.
If the iLM offers automatic assessment functionality, iAssign is able to deal with it. Under such iLM, iAssign provides immediate feedback to the student, and the teachers can get instant information about their activities (including reports about the student performance).
It can be added new iLM into iAssign, at any time, but (for security reason), only the administrator has the privilege of integrating new iLM into iAssign. Once integrated, an iLM can be used by anyone registered in your Moodle. For instance, an user with privileges of "teacher" is allowed to use the iAssign authoring tools to create activities with any iLM (like iGeom, iGraf, or iVprog, respectively to related to the subjects of Geometry, Functions, or Programming).
These plugins are called interactive Learning Modules (iLM), and examples of iLM that comes with iAssign are:
- iGeom: Interactive Geometry
- iGraf: Interactive Graphics and Functions
- iComb: Interactive Enumerative Combinatorics
- ivProg: Visual and Interactive Programming on the Internet
