Hi... I have some functional questions about dear, beloved Moodle:
- Email notification of assignment feedback. It looks like the newest build of Moodle is automatically sending email notifications to students when they're assignments (and journals?) receive a grade and comments. That's a very cool thing if so. As a logistical point, does it resent a second notice if I make minor changes to the evaluation. i.e. I catch a typo in my feedback to a given assignment later in the day and make a quick edit--does the student receive a second notification about "new" evaluation. It's not a big deal.. I just might avoid making trivial edits to feedback at times to avoid crowding student inboxes if that's the case.
- Resubmitting Assignments. If' I've enabled multiple submissions/uplaods and a student resubmits an assignment after I've already given feedback and a grade, how am I notified that a new assignment has been uploaded? Is the old grade and feedback purged when the new file is uploaded (I hope not, since I'd want to refer back to that).
- Re-ordering courses sections. I'm in the process of building a course in topic order, and I suddenly realized that "hey, I'd like to insert a topic #3" in this list.of 10 topics I've already created. Is there an easy way to insert sections without having to shuffle individual assignments/resources/etc. across into the new section(s)?
Many thanks,
John
