Assignment/Draft Features/Publish student assignment to other students

Publish student assignment to other students

This is a proposal for an additional feature to provide the ability for a teacher to publish selected student assignments that could be used as e.g an example/answer model/feedback or any other purposes to other students after getting the required permission from the owners of the assignments in Assignment module.

Goals and rationale

The main goal of this feature is to :

• Provide an ability for a teacher to publish submitted student assignments to other students after obtaining the required permission from students to do so when student assignments have been selected for a student assignment publication to other students

Overview

The current behavior regarding the ability for teachers to publish submitted student assignments to other students has not yet been supported. With this 'Publish student assignment' feature, it will give teachers the ability and the permission (if granted) to publish student assignments of their choice to other students for a number of reasons such as for an answer model/feedback example for other students

A setting added to the mod_assign settings page

Submission publication (select yesno, default to no)

[Help text] When set to yes, a check box and an empty text box for the assignment publishing consent statement in the marker feedback status will be visible to the marker in every student assignment submission. if the check box is ticked and the assignment publishing consent statement added and saved in some student assignment submission feedbacks then the 'Publish' button along with a text label containing that information on this assignment has been selected for a publication and the assignment publishing consent statement will be visible to the students whose their submitted assignments have been chosen by the marker/teacher for student assignment publications. The students will get notified of their assignments having been selected for a publication and can give their permission consents by pressing the 'publish' button when they receive their respective grades and feedbacks in the submission status page.

Single button. 'Publish' button has been pressed, it sends a notification email to the teacher that Permission to publish the assignment has been granted ad publish the assignment in the publication area that is only accessible to all students enrolled in a course where the assignment activity resides. the button will disappear once pressed as the student can not withdraw her permission once it has been given (or do it twice for the same assignment)
