Month: December 2021

I’ve been awarded the Particularly Helpful Moodler 2021 badge by Moodle. I’m very happy about this as the genesis is really on helping people.

I’ve been talking up the concept of self-assessment for students. I have a couple of posts on this (Self-Assessment and Self-Assessment (Again)). I passionately believe that there is a strong benefit in students reflecting and self-assessing.

Well, it turns out that there is real value in personal connections. I’ve been mentioning my quest in lots of places. I’ve posted on the Moodle Forums. I’ve chatted with people.

One of the things that developed from conferences was a Cross-State Moodle Group. (Mostly, this was started by the wonderful Jess Bryant, now at Moodle US). The group has representation from Bismark, N.D., Dearborn, MI, Rhode Island, Montana, and Maine.

So, I brought my quest up with the group. Bingo! One of the members sent me a link with a possible solution.

This looks like exactly what I’m looking for. I haven’t installed it yet, so I’m not positive that it will do all that it says. It also hasn’t been updated in a few years.

Still, the power of a network is strong. I’m very grateful to those who have assisted.
