CADO resource

A CADO resource is a curriculum report (aka a "CADO" = Course Assessment and Delivery Outline) automatically generated from a regular Moodle course. Along with other custom data the CADO is able to display a course schedule with weeks or topics matched against assessment dates and activity information. The CADO absorbs information from course topics, activity modules and from three CADO-specific text areas and one site-specific text area. Assessment details are taken from the forum, assignment and quiz activities. They include descriptions, due dates, completion criteria, grading rubrics and user groupings. Custom activity related information can be added using the tags system. CADOs have an inbuilt approval workflow available. Different roles can be set up to generate, compare or approve the CADOs, with alerts and messaging at the completion of each stage in the workflow. By default, a teacher can generate and compare CADOs, and a manager can approve CADOs. Upon CADO approval, students may view the CADO on the course page, and further editing is disabled.

Multiple CADOs can be generated in a course, taking into account user groupings and current course activity settings. CADOs can be compared, within the same course or across different courses, with section differences highlighted visually.

All the terminology within the report, including "CADO", is able to be customized using Moodle's language settings.
