Feedback-Module =============== Overview -------- The Feedback-Module is intended to create individual surveys in an easy way. This module consists of two parts a) the "activity" feedback (required) b) the "sideblock" feedback (optional) The activity is the main part an can run without the block. Here you can create, fill out or analyse the surveys. The sideblock is an optional part. It works as a bridge between different courses and an central placed feedback-activity. So you can create one feedback on the main site of moodle and then publish it in many courses. Requirements ------------ Moodle 1.9 or later Installation ------------ The zip-archive includes the same directory hierarchy as moodle So you only have to copy the files to the correspondent place. copy the folder feedback.zip/mod/feedback --> moodle/mod/feedback and the folder feedback.zip/blocks/feedback --> moodle/blocks/feedback The langfiles normaly can be left into the folder mod/feedback/lang. The only exception is the feedback-block. The langfile is block_feedback.php and have to be copied into the correspondent lang folder of moodle/moodledata. All languages should be encoded with utf8. After it you have to run the admin-page of moodle (http://your-moodle-site/admin) in your browser. You have to loged in as admin before. The installation process will be displayed on the screen. That's all. using the block-feature ----------------------- 1. create one or more new feedback-activitys on the moodle main-site 2. go into some course and enable the feedback-block. This block now shows the feedbacks from the main-site. 3. login as student and go into the course where the feedback-block is enabled 4. fill out the feedback chosen from block 5. login as admin and look at the feedback you created above 6. now you can analyse the answers over the courses good luck CHANGELOG ========= 04.04.2008 - the heading has not supported multilang strings 03.04.2008 - anonymous feedback was send the userid on email-notification (http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB-355) - users can not see the own values if there are chars like single-(') or doublequotas (") 08.03.2008 - admin users now respect capability-setting (http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB-321) 17.12.2007 - resolved issue http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB-231 03.12.2007 - changing the table feedback_template, field public -> ispublic, public is reserved in oracle - resolved issue http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB-95 16.09.2007 - changing access.php, removed the lines with coursecreator, added some RISK_xxx - removed the check of legacy roles on has_capability() - coursesearch now use unicode characters 13.09.2007 - updated edit.php to make the output more xhtml 1.0 strict like 11.09.2007 - Update feedback settings has help showing wrongly - Menu on "Add question to activity" should be sorted alphabetically - missing "Add Pagebreak" is now at the item-list - no hardcoded css - use new print_header() (note it only is available on moodle 1.9!!!) - missing sesskey checks in feedback - uninitialised $filename when importing into feedback 31.07.2007 - fixed bug with missing numbers after xml Question-Import. 29.07.2007 - added "require_course_login()" in view.php - added missing langstring "no_itemname" 25.07.2007 - now defined in applicable_formats() to hide the block in moodle My-Site 07.07.2007 - all functions in lib.php now are with comments in phpdoc-style - removed all depricated function-calls - some code-styling changes (http://docs.moodle.org/en/Coding) 06.07.2007 - Adding some missing lang-strings - fixing some notice-messages with $SESSION-lstgroupid - excelexport now uses the localwincharset from langconfig.php Now it is possible to export excel with utf8.
