Template:Course checks

BCU Course Checks carries out a number of automated checks on a course, that are all user configurable. The checks were designed to encourage a minimum standard of course quality, instead of forcing users and restricting their abilities.

The block also has the option to allow users to "clear down" a course, simply removing any sections that don't have content. It won't delete any sections that have content and/or a summary.

The checks that can be carried out by this block are:

  • Checks that the course has a summary, and course image set
  • Checks that the course is visible to students
  • Checks that guest access has been disabled on the course, to help prevent issues where enrolled students don't have permissions to do things
  • Check that section headings have been renamed from their defaults.
  • Check that all sections have a summary
  • Check that there are no empty sections, and that they all have content
  • Allows site administrators to recommend blocks that should be installed on each course
