Moodle Plugins directory: NED - Marking Manager | Moodle.org
In previous versions of the Marking Manager, the cronjob was used to calculate the number of activities that require grading in all courses. For sites with many courses and/or students, this sometimes meant that the cron job would run for a long time and, as a result, put a strain on server resources. In this latest version, we have made the following changes to address this problem:
- The cron job method has been replaced with a “Manual” option, which allows users to refresh the block only when needed.
- When counting activities, the block will only scan courses where the user has teaching privileges.
- It is now possible to only include courses that 1) reside inside preselected course categories AND 2) have the block installed at the course level. Previously, it was one or the other.
- There is a new option that allows admins to only see courses where they have teaching privileges.
- There is a new option to skip hidden courses when counting activities
- Various bug and format fixes
At the site level (front page) the Marking Manager block lists all Assignments, Forums and Quizzes that require grading. At the course level, the Marking Manager has 2 parts:
Block: provides quick overview of the number of Assignments, Quizzes and Forums with the following status:
- Requires Grading
- Graded
- Not Submitted
Clicking on these status links will open the marking Interface. The block also contains links to a custom Progress Report (see screenshot below). At the bottom part of the block, a status report shows the number of students that:
- have not logged in for x days
- not submitted actities for x days
- have a overall grade less than x percent
Marking Interface: allows teachers to grade Assignments, Quizzes and Forums within a single interface. This interface consists of a left section, where activites are selected, and and right section, where activties are graded. See screen shots below for more info.

Any updates do Moodle 3.4?
Ricardo
I understand that the plugin doesnt yet fully support 3.4 but was wondering if you was aware of this issue and if there was a fix coming shortly for it or whether this a bug which wouldn't fix itself in an update?
Thanks Andy
Currently have issues running this plugin on Debian 9 and Moodle 3.4; after sometime the system becomes unresponsive.
The head teacher has found it to be amazingly helpful (to a point, as it needs some fixes) and has asked me to pursue getting it sorted for our organisation.
I've used the contact form twice in the last couple of months but no one has responded.
I don't seem to be able to message Toby Wingfield and the website for NED just says "coming soon" and "building our membership site".

Because in the way it shows me now, it is by course total, sorts by the course that has the most tasks.
Thank you
Unfortunately....
I was at a school who found it so useful they were willing to pay towards development. I managed to contact the dev in Vancouver via Google searching, said he was working on an update to be released and I joined the beta users group.
That was in 2019... there has been absolutely nothing from him in that entire time. It's basically abandonware now
I am having this uissue in the courses where I got Quizzes with Random Selected Answers.
