Diary is based off the Journal plugin. It allows a user to create a new entry each day. Each entry can be individually graded, with overall rating results being shown based on the selected aggregate type of rating. Currently, the user can edit any entry, but cannot start a new entry on a skipped day.

To use

  1. Login and navigate to your Moodle course.
  2. Turn editing on.
  3. Go to the topic you would like to add the Diary activity to, then from the Add an activity drop down select Diary (assuming your installation has the plugin installed).
  4. Give the activity a name and in the description area, add a prompt that tells students what expected of them in regards to the Diary activity
  5. Click Save and display.
