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.

this entry is currently unapproved.
Should we keep it here as currently being worked on, delete it or consider putting it into the "Others" category if it still doesn't conform to plugin standards?
i think this could be approved and added to the "Nobody - maintainers wanted" User
For example, our installation uses no prefix, which causes your block to fail in these queries.
Otherwise, I like this block
Thanks chris
