Alex Dugger replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Hi Vidya, Just an update. We are working on a fix to this error, but for now there is a very simple work around for this too. If you have an assessment that you want to reopen, instead of choosing Re-open from the Manage Assessment menu, choose…

Marcos, you and Haiku ROCK!!! Thanks, I really do appreciate it :)

Vidya A commented on Jenna's group 'Teaching with haiku LMS'

Posting this here in the hope that either Bryan or Marcos or anybody who uses Haiku can help me. This is URGENT! My students are taking their final exam tomorrow and some of them are trying to view past quizzes as part of their review, but are…

Hi Marcos, No worries. It's the end of the semester, and I did have my workarounds :). Vidya

Vidya, Thanks for the follow up & details on this. I am currently swamped, putting the finishing touches on our upcoming Shadowing feature, but I'm going to have Alex, our support specialist, look over these latest details to try and…

Vidya A replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Hi Marcos, I'm back with this problem. This time, I can't even set new date options for a specific roster section when I use the "Re-open..." option, it just doesn't save the new date/time. Consequently, when I preview it…

Vidya A replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Marcos, it works, and this is in fact how I began. Something made me switch to the long way, I think it was that at some point early on in the semester,only the most recent date/time was being displayed in the calendar for both sections. I'm a…

Marcos Wright Kuhns replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Vidya, It sounds like your "Save As" solution works... but really that's an extra step you shouldn't have to take. I want to try troubleshooting a bit more with you. You can either use an existing Assessment that you don't…

Vidya A replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Hi Marcos, You're right in that I'm using Roster sections. However, with the quiz, I discovered that when I set different dates/times for the quiz for each section, only the latest date/time showed up in the calendar. So waht I acutally…

Marcos Wright Kuhns replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Ok Vidya, here's my guess, correct me if I'm wrong. You're using sections in class roster, right? If so, what you're experiencing is a known bug. You'll note that when an Assessment has different start and/or end times in…

Vida, No worries, I don't consider you a troublemaker! It's extremely valuable to us as a company & to the community to track down the causes of bugs or odd behavior as quickly as possible. I'll be looking into this issue this…

Re-open Quiz doesn't seem to be working.

Caveat: I'm posting the "challenges" I encounter here in the hope that they benefit both the Haiku folks and the community as a whole, so hopefully, I'm not coming across a troublemaker :-).This time round, the "Re-open" quiz has been giving me problems. I was able to use this feature a couple of months ago, when I had to "re-open" a published quiz for a student who couldn't take it at the original date/time could retake it. I simply changed the date and time settings in the Re-option options…See More

Vidya A replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Assessments: 1st Attempt & Final Scores' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

I noticed that and figured you had fixed it. Of course, now I have a new bug to talk about ;), but that's a whole new thread.

Marcos Wright Kuhns replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Assessments: 1st Attempt & Final Scores' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Vidya, I was able to track down the cause of this bug & am glad to report that we launched a fix for the issue as part of version 4.1.1 tonight. Thanks again for reporting this bug & let us know if you run into any more issues by either…

Marcos Wright Kuhns replied to Vidya A's discussion 'Assessments: 1st Attempt & Final Scores' in the group Teaching with haiku LMS

Vidya, Thanks for reporting this odd behavior. It seems to me that if there's only 1 attempt allowed & no pending points, the score from the 1st attempt should be recorded automatically as the "Final Score." I'll see if I…

Assessments: 1st Attempt & Final Scores

I have two questions regarding how exam scores are viewed and published:1. When I review the results of an exam, I find that sometimes the 1st attempt score is also published in the "Final Score" column, and sometimes not (attachment "assessment_scores.png"). What causes this?2. If I don't modify the "1st Attempt" score in the "Results" window in some fashion, it doesn't transfer over to the "Final Score" column, and consequently, does not get "published" when I publish the results for student…See More

With version 4, due out in two weeks, it is possible to maintain several sections within one roster. Each section shares Pages, but can have different calendar events and assignments, discussions, dropbox listings and even gradebooks. :)

At 11:02am on July 13, 2009, Barb said…: Re: your question about setting up one haiku site for two classes with identical content.
Yes, there is a way to manage the grading component ( as well as discussion, polls, drop boxes): Build 3 sites. Before you scream, read on! site A would contain the content, weekly assignments, & the names of ALL students. Site B would contain a discussion board, drop box, polls, quiz tool & roster for one of the classes; Site C would contain a discussion board, drop box, polls, quiz tool & roster for the second class. This way, site A will serve as the entry point with Sites B & C group specific.
Does this make sense?!
