Moodle in English -> Virtual Programming Lab (plugin) -> [VPL Question] How to hide the VPL activity behind the question when preparing an exam?

Hi all

When we prepare an exam containing VPL Questions, we followed the advice to set visibility of the VPL Activities behind them low by placing them in a hidden section and set to "Make available but don't show on course page". When we prepare the exam, we test it as dummy students.

The problem is, the students see the VPL activities in their grade view!

Hiding the grade book altogether works, but not friendly. I gather, I could remove the corr. grade in the grade book. Prone to errors, since an exam has many questions, as a result many "hidden" VPL activities.

How do you handle this situation?

Moodle in English -> Moodle community sites -> [moodle.org] Error "Exception - read error on connection to moodle-org-session-dgfdb:6379

To the site admin

The dgfdb:6379 had happened repeatedly a long time ago but quiet since then. It reappeared yesterday.

Browser latest Firefox on Debian. When this happens moodle.org won't open in a second browser tab - which I checked. But the new thing is, it was the same in another browser, this time Bave, on the same Debian laptop.

From previous experience I know that it'll stay until I remove a cookie in the browser console. This time didn't take the trouble. Half an hour later the problem was gone. I can't imagine any changes in my laptop during that half an hour. Must be a similar thing like last time.

My interpretation is that the due date is a serious deadline, since we impose a penalty on late submissions. Yeah, that orange label reminds the teacher to pull the yellow card.

But that should not mislead the students to believe that we will keep on marking their submissions forever - the cut-off date is that exactly that limit.
 
Or, among us, the good students submit before the due date, the bad students submit late, i.e. after the due data, but still manage before the cut-off. Those who get caught in the cut-off have nowhere to go.
