Hello, I have a use case where students will be uploading videos of training activities and instructors will be grading the students based on a defined rubric. Currently, I don't see either the capability of students to upload content for grading nor the ability to create grading rubrics for use by instructors. Am I missing something? Is this a feature in the works? Any rough ideas how much work it would take an interested dev (me) to create? I really like that Opigno is built atop Drupal, but without this feature, I'll need to fall back to monster that is Moodle. Thanks, Benjamin

Hi riggs,

Yes, there is such assessment tool in Opigno!

When you add questions to your lesson/quiz, you need to choose the question type "Fileupload question"

You can choose the allowed extensions (so in your own case you will choose video extensions).

Once the students have loaded their videos, teachers will have to manually grade them, and the score will be included in the student's results.

Best regards,

Grading rubric?

I see the fileupload question type (not sure how I missed that before), but I don't see any option for creating a grading rubric for use by the teachers in evaluating uploaded files. Thanks!

Hi

How do you imagine this grading process with rubrics?

This fileupload question only allows to give a global grade to the student for his work.

Grading rubric

Sort of like a lesson the instructor would fill out based on their assessment of the student, which would then be compiled down into a simple percentage grade. The goal is to have an established rubric that can be applied to multiple assignments to help ensure consistent evaluation.

OK I see.

We have not this process at the moment in Opigno. It could be of course added with a small additional code.

Maybe it will be also added in a future release.

Best regards,

API suggestions?

I'm willing to write the code to make it happen, if it's something that isn't too complicated. Any suggestions for what APIs I should look at and a rough over-all architecture? Would it be more or less a subclass of quiz?

Hi riggs,

This would require creating a new question type and maybe doing some changes to the quiz mode.

You can look at the long answer question that already has a rubric field and a feedback. And also at the fileupload question type.

Best regards
