Hello everyone,
I'm considering using VPL in a introductory course to programming. In each week, I have a few simple programming exercises for students (between 4-8 small problems). Right now, I'm using one assignment per week (students upload multiple files). I'm considering switching to VPL, but I'm wondering if there is a way to group multiple problem statements into a single VPL activity. Some reasons for doing this are:
- to have the problems for each week grouped into a single "unit" so that they are not all showed in the course page;
- to have one grade per week (instead of having grades for each problem).
I believe I might be able to get this done via vpl_execution script, but I'm wondering if someone did this already. Or maybe you can suggest an alternative to have the VPL assignments for each week grouped into a single "unit" (something like pages in a book resource).
Thanks.
