Currently, the Workshop allows a teacher to specify a number of file attachments allowed, including 0. If file attachments are allowed, the student's submission form contains a "Submission content" editor field, and an "Attachment" file manager field. Neither of these fields are marked as required, but if a student doesn't enter data in either, they see a message that either one of the fields is required. A student may submit the form with just some text, even if the task requires a file to be uploaded, or vice versa. We have had feedback from our staff that students have been making this mistake.
The proposed fix:
- On the submissions settings form;
- Add a new field to the “Submission settings” section called “Type of materials accepted”.
- This has the options “Attachment only”, “Submission text area only”, and “Attachment and submission text area” (it could be a Select or Radio buttons).
- The default option is “Attachment and submission text area”.
- If “Submission text area only” is selected, all of the fields relating to file attachments are disabled.
- Remove the “0” option from the number of file attachments.
- On the Submission form itself;
- Only display the text field if “Submission text area only” or “Attachment and submission text area” was selected.
- Only display the file attachment field if “Attachment only” or “Attachment and submission text area” was selected.
- If displayed, each of these fields is marked Required using the standard moodleform method. The current validation to check one of them is set is removed from the validation() method.
