Bugs in the configuration
My name is Hichem GHARBI, certified CCNA CISCO instructor. I am using the python course on this platform. I would like to raise two points:
1- Although I configure the hidden Test Summary for students, it continues to appear for them.
2- For examples in the course, it would be better to use shorter variable names.
Best regards.1 voteArchived ·

Grade Column under Assignments Link
I have contacted Moodle and they have told me that once logged into a course there is an “Activities box” in the upper right corner and inside of that there is an “Assignments link”. I use that Assignments Link regularly for grading the assignments.
Moodle told me that there are Submission and Grade columns at the far right. I see those as well. The Submission column shows the number of assignments that have been submitted. Moodle says that their system also shows how many submissions have been graded or are left to grade in the “Grade” column as well.

filing bugreports should be easier
1.
Filing a bugreport against a curriculum is too cumbersome. You have to take these steps:
a. Go to the ? Icon
b. Click "NetAcad Support"
c. Go through the chat bot? I do not want to talk to a robot first. Then, you will be asked if your question was answered, and if you say "no" you should get a link to "contact the Support Desk"
d. Fill out the subject and description above the live chat button, and click "Create Ticket". But you cannot immediately add a screenshot/picture/attachment?2.
You could also email at netacadsupport@netacad.com, should you…4 votesThanks for your suggestion. We will keep your idea for future implementation.

Activar visualización de cursos que está llevando un participante
Sugiero añadir la opción de buscar y visualizar los cursos que lleva un participante (por su nombre de usuario o correo), pero estando como administrador de la plataforma, ya que esto solamente sale activo cuando se encuentra uno como instructor, pero es de mucha ayuda como administrador tener acceso a esta herramienta.

Bring back ITE pretest
Is there any chance that the curriculum development team will bring back the pre-test in the ITEv8 course? It was an extremely helpful tool and really gave the kids a chance to see how they did over the course of a school year. (Also kept admin happy because we had numbers to crunch.)

ENSA practice final time available
Why limit the activation period to 7 days the practice final exam. I like to release it at mid semester so students can start preparing and having to activate every 7 days is aggravating. I understand (do not necessarily agree) with the time limit on final exam.
Suggestion is expand to 90 days.

Reinstate the build-a-switch-and-router-network.pksz Tutorial
The tutorial PT file build-a-switch-and-router-network.pksz was in CCNA1 version 7.01, but seems to have not been included in the version 7.02 curriculum. I enjoyed using this in class for students to practice basic configuration skills.

SELECCIÓN DE ESTUDIANTES CON NOTA SUPERIOR
Sería necesario que en el grade se pueda seleccionar a los estudiantes que obtuvieron la nota igual o superior a 70 para poder obtener el certificado ya que cuando el grupo es muy grande se tiene que ir uno por uno indicando que concluyó o completó el curso bien

Academy Success Dashboard
Hello, I want to see my statistical data about the course as an administrator in the academy. i used to be able to see this data from admin page. I don't know where to look now.
All requests are processed in the order they are received. We will respond as quickly as possible.
some data I want to see as an administrator; my course achievements by years, my student achievements, academy success comparison by years, etc.
1 voteThanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately the dashboard has been discontinued and we are not able to implement another or new dashboard at this time. You can use the grade book to view class-level info if needed.

Add module numbers in Assessment Center - activation
The only name of module groups is not clear enough to select the right assessment to activate. Please add the module numbers too (i.e. 7-10) !!!

One recommendation is to use the individual exam links in the course instead of the assessment center.

Packet tracer Autograder
Having a tool that scan a folder for PKA files and pull the user profile and completion percentage out would be a huge asset for instructors!

fix the Last Login message
Not only is the date format wrong (9/12/2022 for September 12), and the time format (23:09 PM?), there is zero security benefit showing me the time I just logged in instead of the previous time.
Please make sure your platform is properly internationalized and show the previous log in time rather than the current one!

What if option
it would be nice to have a what if option under the grade book. When it comes time for finals, most of my students want to know what grade they have to make on the finals to pass the course. It would be nice if we could click a "What if" button so we could see values or plug in temp values. So like what would they have to make on the 2 finals to get a c in the class.

Assignments Page Submission Grade columns
Assignments Page Submission Grade columns
At a quick glance I can see how many submissions for each assignment that I have to grade on the Assignments page. I noticed nothing ever changes on the Grade column.
However, after grading a few assignments there could be additional submissions. If there are 10 students and I graded 7 assignments one time, when I go back to the assignments page again it does not give me a quick overview of how many submission need grading in the Grade column versus how many have been submitted in the Submission column.
As an instructor I…

Drag and drop to assign due dates
I saw this was mentioned before, along with bulk editing due dates and it was marked as "Unable to do at this time".
I would just like to suggest it again to get it back on the radar since the new LMS has been in place for a while now.

Display due dates on Instructor View
Please display the due dates on the instructor view, just like they are displayed in the Student View. It will make it SO much easier to update due dates it we could see them and change them. Now if we see them in the student view, we cannot change them unless we switch back to instructor view (where we cannot see them).
