Chapter 4. Incorporating Educational Standards
Now that our Moodle site is taking shape as a CIMS with courses created, teachers assigned to courses, and students enrolled in their courses, we can begin to build standards into our site that reflect the standards, or policies, that are implemented in our educational program. We'll also streamline procedures, such as the submission of grades, and in the process, attempt to make the jobs of both teachers and educational administrators a little easier.
In this chapter, we will introduce and explain the following tasks that will enable you to start to incorporate educational standards in your Moodle CIMS site:
Bulk setup of the attendance module
Setting the Gradebook to reflect educational program standards
Implementing a final grade submission process through your Moodle CIMS
Setting up a procedure for implementing a program-wide assessment test
