IT Essentials: Activities in "Course completion" wrongly consider "Final Exam - Composite"
In the IT Essentials course when selecting "Grades/Completion » View » Course Completion" the activities shown are "End of Course Feedback" and "Final Exam - Composite (Chapters 1-14)". These two are automatically updated by the system and should be considered for the approval of the student.
However, most of the students choose to do both the exams "Final Exam (Chapters 1-9)" and "Final Exam (Chapters 10-14)" instead of the "Final Exam - Composite (Chapters 1-14)". In this case one of the activities ("Final Exam - Composite (Chapters 1-14)") will be shown as not completed.

Add Score obtained by Student in Final Exam in Course Completion
In new experience, in order to complete an student you need to get to the Course Completion view.
In this view, usually you can see checked the required items the student has completed - usually Feddback or Feedback and Final Exam columns - .
When you hover the mouse over the completed activity for a student, it appears a pop-up showing when (date and time) the student completed this activity.
I will find useful if you can to the pop-up information the score obtained by student in the activity.
Thanks for your attention.
Best regards

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.

Enable Moodle Dashboard - Work with Moodle in Teams
The Moodle Dashboard app is made for teachers and students. If your organization uses Moodle and Microsoft Office 365, you can benefit from de cooperative behavior by working with Moodle inside Microsoft Teams. If you as a teacher don't already have teams for your courses, you can easily create education teams with course details, members, feed, calendar and relevant tabs and channels. If you are a student, you can access all teams created for you by the course teacher or an organization administrator. Then you can have quick access to your Moodle course details as well as work in Moodle…

Activities from CCNAv6.0
Many of the interactive activities that enabled students to verify their understanding that were included in CCNAv6.0 were not added to the CCNAv7.0 courses. These are extremely helpful to instructors and students. Please consider adding. Attached is an example from ITNv6.0 that should be added to ITNv7.0 module 3.3.

Checking number of attempts of course feedback and final exam
I am currently over seeing Introduction to Networks where there are large number of students undertaking this subject. The subject is run on face-to-face mode and due to covid we had to have fewer number of students in class per time. This resulted in running classes from 9am to 9pm, Monday to Friday. Not knowing how many attempts the students completed in the past for final exam and specifically course feedback resulted in me relying on students to tell me which was not helpful. This resulted in me having to raise many tickets several times a day, contact online (which…

Allow for Extra Credit Assignments
In the legacy LMS, we could set the point value for an assignment to 0, which allowed creating optional, extra credit assignments. The new LMS requires a minimum point value of 1, which detracts from creating extra credit assignments.
Please change to allow setting point value of 0 when the instructor wants to create an entirely optional assignment that has no affect on student overall grade calculation of not completed/submitted.5 votesArchived ·AdminSandra Ray

The Bookmark Tab
The book Mark tab on the course is based on cookies! When i student book marks a page in class it will not show when the student logs in to
NETACAD at home. This would be a great thing to fix. So that when they bookmark a page it stays no matter where the student logs in at.thanks

email verification needed at the registration
When a student register on netacad.com currently there is no email verification. If a student make a mistake on his email address while typing (eg. xxxxxx@gmail.com can be typed as xxxxxx@gamil.com) it wont get rejected but get registered. Hence student wont know he has done a mistake at the registration.

Why Get Rid of the Single Course Content?
Why was course content broken down into groups of modules? I assign a module a week. I would like to be able to a) have one link to course content, or b) have a link to each module instead of a group of 2 or 3 modules. This will be confusing and frustrating to students.
I group Module 1 and all Module 1 assignments together. The same with Modules 2 and 3. Then I give the Module Group Exam after they have completed all modules in the group.
You can see the examples in the New Course (Nope) and the…

filter courses
Would be nice to filter the courses on what you can teach or where there is a teacher qualified. Now I am looking at a course, start filling everything out, and then see that I can't add a teacher.

The login TIMEOUT is too SHORT!!!
If I work on a course (i.e. ITE7) a full day, either for study or for teaching, I have to re-login at least 4-5 times, and this is very annoying. Can the login timeout be extended to at least 5-6 hours? Thanks. Marco

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.

How to show last and first names

Grade book
In the site we create courses that contains up to 100 students at the end we have to down 3 or 4 grade books depending on how many courses we have. I work for a university therefore I deal with large number of students. It would be nice if there can be an option on the website to do to download the grade book that contains all students regardless of how many courses you have.
