Do realize though that that might slow your server down to have cron running continually.

Emma, I had set the cron job for every 2 min. However, it turned out that the hosting provider requires a min of 30min for cron jobs...

Is there any other way to speed up the email grade notifications to students??

Switch hosts?  

I wonder if the app notifications are based on cron or not - that might be a work around.  Download the Moodle app and see if that comes through quicker.  I know we are an every thing in an instant world but if you are tied by your host to 30 minutes, then they might just have to wait..

Emma,

I downloaded the app, and enabled it. Thanks for suggesting it.

I can see the assignment submissions there but cannot grade them... Is there any setting for that?? I saw somewhere that grading is enabled for the new mobile app, so it should be possible. Would you please advise?

Thank you.
