19. How Are Offline Assignments Used?

20. Create links to various activities eg: wiki, forum and then assign grades to students for activities they complete using the Wiki module, or Database module, Moodle Blog, etc. Attendance at Virtual Sessions - give students 1 mark for attending each session. That way you have a record of who came to what session, just like in a face to face classroom. I used to use a Wiki for an Advanced Placement Computer Science course, so the students could display their programs and learn from each others programming code. I would use the Offline assignment type to award a grade to the students' posted program, code and description.

21. How Are Online Assignments Used?

22. Setup as a private ongoing discussion between each of the participants and the instructor. Disable the start and end dates for the activity, make it not count for any grades, allow students to resubmit their work, and allow for inline comments. When you setup an Online text assignment this way, it essentially becomes a journal that only the instructor can view. The students can continue to edit and update their entries, and the instructor is able to post comments and observations inline. I have often used the Online text assignment this way. In fact, in previous versions of Moodle, it was known as the Journal assignment type. David LeBlanc, Knowplace
