Hi, early this year our college had our IT contracted develop new logs for our Moodle site - one for assignments submitted each day on the site and one for assessments marked each day on the site.
We did this because in New Zealand the Qualifications Authority only allows certain programs to be used as student databases at tertiary institutions, and as such we are unable to use the Moodle grading system to record student results. We have to transfer results from assessments submitted through Moodle (they can also be submited in hard copy by students) into our student database. Each day an assigned staff member transfers the info. The 'submission' log is used to ensure we are always up to date with where students are at in their learning, as we send regular reminder emails saying where they should be at in there studies that are specific to their progress (rather than being generic emails). As there can be a delay of 3 weeks between submission and marking, this lets us know exactly where students are up to at any one time.
The logs have proved difficult. We know they are working 95% of the time, but there are occasions where the submissions or marked assessments are missed on the logs. What I am wondering is if these logs would be useful to other institutions, and if so where and how I should upload the code that has been developed thus far for others to see and work on to get rid of the bugs.
