Subcourse module for Moodle

Moodle Plugin CI

This Moodle module provides very simple yet useful functionality. When added into a course, it behaves as a graded activity. The grade for each student is took from a final grade in another course. Combined with metacourses, this allows course designers to effectively organise courses into separate units.

Branches

The git branches here support the following versions.

Moodle version Branch
Moodle 4.1 MOODLE_401_STABLE
Moodle 4.2 MOODLE_402_STABLE
Moodle 4.3 MOODLE_403_STABLE
Moodle 4.4 MOODLE_404_STABLE

Installation

Please follow https://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_plugins#Installing_a_plugin for the general instructions on how to install Moodle plugins.

When installing from uploaded ZIP package or via Git, the "subcourse" directory is expected to be place under the "/mod" directory of your Moodle installation.

Usage

  • Create a main course and one or few other courses that should act as a sub-courses of the main course.
  • Into the main course, add a new instance of the Subcourse activity module for each of the referenced course (sub-course) to fetch grades from.
  • Enrol students into all courses (the main one as well as the referenced ones).
  • Let students receive the final grades in the referenced courses.
  • Check that the final grade in the referenced courses now appears as the grade for the Subcourse activity in the main course.
