Activities: Scheduler
The Scheduler module helps you in scheduling appointments with your students. Teachers specify time slots for meetings, students then choose one of them on Moodle. Teachers in turn can record the outcome of the meeting - and optionally a grade - within the scheduler.
Group scheduling is supported; that is, each time slot can accomodate several students, and optionally it is possible to schedule appointments for entire groups at the same time.
Please note that minor updates to this module will normally be released on github only.For help and discussion about the module, including feature requests etc., please use the Scheduler forum on moodle.org or the bug tracker. Please don't use the comment section below for that, queries might go unanswered.
For an earlier version supporting Moodle up to release 1.9, see the Scheduler 1.9 module.
Thank you for your support. How do I add these wanted features to the tracker?
The bug tracker is here:

You'll have to register to post and follow issues.
First check the current feature requests to see if someone hasn't already made the same request, in which case you'll want to vote for it and follow it. If the request is not exactly what you have in mind, you may add your comment to the discussion.
This might prove to be a beneficial option for educators whom want to take greater control of the scheduler activity, and relieving them from the task of having to email or inform students verbally that they have booked them.
First of all, thank you for providing this tool, however I am wondering if it would be possible to use it in a different way as it was first meant to be. Let me explain what we intend to do : we would like to have a Moodle space dedicated to pedagogical meetings between students and teachers OR between students and peer-students OR even perhaps between teachers and peer-teachers.
Slots could then be created eitherway by teachers AND students. The idea is that any user, disregarding their role(s) on the platform (be them teachers or students), could equally register online for a meeting or organize one themselves so that any other peer-student / teacher could attend such a meeting.
I have been having a deep look at the various permissions and overriding possibilities within the course and within each of the 2 schedulers I have added, (one is meant for "Registering for a meeting" while the other should be used for "Planning a meeting"). It seems like having the permission to add slots in the scheduler automatically takes out the permission to register to any slot.
Any idea to help us solve this dead-end situation ?
Thanks for helping,
Best,
Yannick
Using 3.5.0 on Moodle 3.5.3. Can you confirm a suspicion I have in that if a teacher sets up a schedule and assigns students to the slots, the students don't get an email about the appointment being made? That is what we are seeing. Notifications are on, they do get reminder emails, it appears in their calendar, just not getting an initial booking email.
Thanks.
Glenn.

I'm on Moodle 3.8 with the latest Scheduler.
I have an issue with the Scheduler Plugin. I do not want the teachers to see the email addresses of the students.
I have completely made the students hidden site wide on other areas of Moodle but it still shows under Scheduler. Please help. IT is very important for us to hide students email addresses from all users inlcuding teachers for privacy reasons. Thanks!
Quick question, do you have an estimated time for the upgrade for moodle 3.10?
