===== Files for common access across courses =====
 +
Can I store files/resources in Moodle in a way that I can access them from multiple courses (workaround - upload file in KOER and provide link in Moodle).
   −
==== Further exploration ====
+
Yes, this is possible. There is a need to label the files in a meaningful way, so that when we want to add a resource, we can select it from the server, instead of uploading from our computer.

There are lot of variables here and needs some testing before I can enable this feature considering it will use the same server resources which are used by regular mail server..

==== Converting an Edx course to Moodle ====
For the VTC course, we are opening it out to  teacher educators of other BEd colleges in Bengaluru. We need to have an email id for interested teacher educators to mail interest... or this can be a  (moodle?) form.
     −
I create a form within moodle use of plugin like this to create forms for anon users - <nowiki>https://moodle.org/plugins/local_contact</nowiki>
+
===== Check list on progress of student in course =====
 +
1.  Can it be changed to reflect progress like - (i) understand (ii) somewhat (iii) don't understand.  Yes/ No - they may all say yes 2.  
   −
or we can also simply make a google form of what data we want to collect and give the link to same on our moodle frontpage. But why separate email id? we can provide      [[Mailto:education@itforchange.net|education@itforchange.net]] if we want them to contact us..
+
In Edx kind of platforms, we have a progress bar- so can we break down the assignment question as completed PDL, completed concept map,etc...and they check only what they have completed - and it shows the progress completion?  Even in each of these items, % completion will be useful to show. One of the good students said "if we have finished we say yes,other wise we come back and say Yes when we finish". This may not be the best for their own self-tracking

===== Check list on progress of student in course =====
+
Y - Progress bar and % completion is possible with the existing checklist activity. Additionally as a teacher, you can comment on individual student's items.
