What this block doesAt the moment it is a very simple block that just links to your children's profile (all user contexts you have a role in). From there, you can view their courses, read their
blogs, view their activity reports and grades, etc, depending on the role definition of your "mentor/parent" role.
How to get it to work
As an administrator, make a role called "parents" or "mentor" or something similar, this role will need
moodle/user:viewdetails capability set to allow, and depending on your requirements, capabilities under users (such as moodle/user:viewuseractivitiesreport should be set to allow as well). For every student this user is a mentor of, you need to go into that student's profile, click on assign roles, and assign the "parent role" to that student. This user will not need any other roles assigned to him. On site front page, administrators can place the Mentees block, and rename it to anything they want. Upon login the mentors/parents will see links to their children/mentees, which they can follow and view that particular mentee's reports etc. Please note the report for every course is differnet, to view the reports of a differnet course a parent can follow the course link on the profile page.
