The plugin is developed to support the evaluation of a course. It provides "student report generation" type work material that allows learners to download a portion of their Moodle log data in anonymized form.
When learners click on this type of work material, they are shown a configurable description. There are also two buttons: on the one hand, a button to view the anonymized log data available for download. A second button allows to download this data as a file. The log data does not contain any names of persons, and the user ID has also been removed. Therefore, it is not possible to draw any conclusions about the respective person from the data. The downloaded log file has the extension .kib3. Therefore, if you want to check the contents of such a .kib3 file, simply change the extension to .zip and unzip it.
To enable the downloading of log data, you must first include the "Student Report Generation" activity in your course. To do this, activate the edit mode and then click on "Add an activity or resource".
Search and then click on "Student Report Generation".
The activity has three important configurations.
- Name is the name of the activity when it is displayed in the course overview.
- Description is a small description of the activity which can be displayed in the course overview by activating "Display description on course page".
- Instructions is the text that is visible after clicking on the activity and provides further information on the download button available there.
The activity can be seen in the course overview and the description already gives an overview of the activity here.
After clicking on the activity, you will get to the activity view. Here you will see the description, which was also displayed on the course overview, and the instructions used for information that should not be displayed there, as well as the two buttons "View log data" and "Download log data".
While "Download log data" downloads the log data immediately, you can also view the data to be downloaded by clicking on the "View log data" button.
- Log in to your Moodle site as an admin and go to Site administration > Plugins > Install plugins.
- Upload the ZIP file with the plugin code. You should only be prompted to add extra details if your plugin type is not automatically detected.
