Ranking block
Moodle Ranking block repository
VERSION 2
This block is and will remain free, but your donation allows me to continue the development, and any amount is greatly appreciated.
This block improves gamefication into the moodle plataform.
This new version is more simpler and easy to use, but, with more visual.
The plugin works listening moodle events, so now, the points are added in real time.
The ranking works with the activity completion tracking, so you need to enable that and configure the criterias for all activities you want to monitor. The plugin only add points to activities with completion criterias. The method to add points remains the same.
There are different ways to gain points.
For example:
- If a student completes a html page the ranking adds 2 points.
- If a student completes an assignment and it is ended only when the student receive a grade. The ranking add 2 points plus the grade points to the student. You can configure the default points in the block configuraion.
NOTE: All the activities that needs grade to be finished will add the activity points (default 2) more the activity grade. For example: If the course has one assignment and it's configured to be completed only after the grade is received by the student and let's say a random student received by the end of the assignment 10(ten) as his grade. In this case that student will obtain 12(twelve) points, the 2(two pre-configured) from finishing the activity plus 10(ten) from his grade.
This only occurs with activities that have grades. ex: foruns, assignments, lessons, etc...
For Moodle version 3.2+
With the new chart api in moodle version 3.2 i added some graphs to see the groups performance. Enjoy and feel free to send me your feedback.
Update Notes
- Added graphs page
- Added event listeners to add point
- Removed cron dependency
- Added a weekly ranking
- Added a monthly ranking
- Added a tiny report with top 100 students in general ranking
- Added filter the tiny report by groups (the course group mode needs to be "separeted groups" or "visible groups")
- Now you don't need configure the course completion tracking, only the activities completion criterias. Again, the plugin only monitors the activities with completion criteria
- The table ranking_cmc_mirror was removed.

- Put the folder into the folder blocks of your moodle

Post instalation
After you have installed the block you just add it into the moodle course.
The ranking block works together with the activity completion, so you need to enable that and configure the criterias for all activities you want to monitor. The ranking block monitors these activities and add points to the students based on accomplishing the activities.

Screenshots
First of all, thank you for maintaining this great plugin. Please, could you update plugin info with the latest changelog? I'm talking about September 18th release (today).
My moodle version is 3.0, then I already followed the steps on Enabling completion tracking. And I did not change the score settings of the ranking block.
I just would like to raise the same request in a previous request as below

Hi, Looks like a great plug-in. Thanks for this and all of the follow up. I was wondering if there is any plug-in that would show a team's aggregate points in a leader board. So rather than individual grades and points placing one person at top of the class (or the bottomsad ) a team could be working together to beat another team. This could still have the motivation of gamification but not the negative of reinforcing the negative experiences.
And on a different note - I think this is an awesome block.
Optei pela pontuação na primeira tentativa e os resultados foram confusos para mim, veja:
A sequencia é de notas do quiz seguido de notas que imagino que o ranking atribuiu (12/1.2 - 10,5/1.1 - 13,5/1.4 - 9/9 - 15/1.5) então as notas do ranking ficaram assim (3.2 - 3.1 - 3.4 - 12 - 3.5) Como podemos corrigir isso? Usou o Moodle 3.0 e a última versão do seu bloco.
I wish to display the full name in the block (First name + Surname). Is that possible for us to do, perhaps with a small change to the code?
Many thanks!
