 Description  « Hide
the assessment methods in the workshop module are lovely (the accumulative or rubric-based scales), and I would like to use them on assignments that either do not need the complexity of the workshop's 4-stage peer review, or use them with offline work (ie. work viewed in class that doesn't exist electronically)

This is a great idea. Better still, make it possible to compose an Assessment Form with other gradable activies like Assignment. But even as a simple stand-alone activity, Assessment Form would be valuable addition.

Lauren Keinath added a comment - 14/Feb/08 04:53 AM
This would be a fantastic addition. I have a considerable number of faculty who would welcome this. If this could be incorporated with other Assignment types, as John suggests, it would be extremely useful. Just my 2 cents.

This is a vital feature. Schools in Victoria ar being encouraged to use rubrics for assessment. Teachers pet hate with Rubrics is the paper warefare they create. The ability to assess an assignment in Moodle, either an online or offline task, using an online rubric would be sensational.
It should not to too hard to program.

Can you move that priority up a bit higher.

I would love to be able to do this simply, Many of my colegues have asked for something simular

+ 10 on this. It's the perfect companion to outcomes.

John, "Assessment Form" ? Would the above added to offline assignment not do the job?

Would be a great feature.

I am working for the department of Computer Science at the University of Alberta and one of my projects for the summer is to add rubrics to the assignments module on our system. After reading these comments and discussing the desired functionality with those that have requested it here, it would seem that adding the Rubrics to the base class (applying it to all assignment types), as Ray suggested, would be best.

I will submit the changes when we get somewhere with it.

I think this would be a great idea.

Many of our instructors use rubrics for their assignments. We are recent adopters of Moodle, and would really appreciate this feature in Moodle.

Over the past year, my team and I completed a quite thorough version of this for 1.8.3 as a replacement "assignment" module. It was stable but never put into production at our university. Instead of releasing it, I'm upgrading it to work with the newest 1.9.x version of Moodle (I'd rather not support 2 versions ^^ ) – then I'll release it.

I'll post any updates as I move this along.

Spencer - this is fantastic - have been looking for something like this. Look forward to the release.

Dale William Quattrin added a comment - 08/Jul/08 09:22 PM
This is great!! I will be trying to implement as soon as it is available.

Martin Dougiamas added a comment - 08/Jul/08 11:05 PM
Can we have a full description/spec posted here? I'm uncertain how it's different from using outcomes.

Spencer Creasey added a comment - 18/Jul/08 08:32 PM
Whew! I've posted the latest version of my Assignment Module replacement with rubrics here:

Peer and self assessment should be integrated into assignments. They are an important pedadogogical tool that I know that many people use extensively across many types of assignment.

THIS WOULD BE AWESOME!

My staff are required to use moodle and do at least two totally online assignments. The biggest complaint is that once the file gets to the teacher, it is difficult to grade online. They want to be able to give comments (more than the quickgrade) and get it back to the student easily. This is time consuming. If there were a way to create an online rubric that the teacher could use online and comment on that would automatically be on the student account (without the need to upload back to student) would be absolutely awesome. I teach at MSU and we have that type of portfolio where the student uploads the file to the assignment in the portfolio. I can open it and view it. I can use the rubric to score it and give comments and that is saved back to the student portfolio where they can see that.

I would love to have that for my K-12 building. This should be more than a minor status. This would be huge!

In Moodle 2.0, Workshop module can be set up so that it behaves like a simple Assignment module, just having the advanced grading methods available (rubrics etc). Basically there are three checkboxes for every workshop instance that the teacher can use to turn the feature on/off
[ ] use self assessment
[ ] use peer assessment
[ ] use assessment of example submissions

If all these are off, you have quite simple Assignment-like module with the possibility to use your own assessment form. So instead of incorporating Workshop features into Assignment, you can use the simplified mode of Workshop that actually works similar to the Assignment (covering all three subtypes - Online text, Single upload and partially Advanced upload).
