Goals

  • Run Moodle with the modified quiz module on an XO running XS, The XO school Server.

Milestones

Week 8

  • Create Moodle data flow diagram to give an understanding of how the Moodle Server and corresponding database interact with Student and Teachers machines.
  • Have Moodle's latest stable release functioning in an XS School Server VirtualBox OSE Virtual Machine

Week 9

  • Have Moodle's latest stable release functioning on an XO running XS using the techniques outlined here.
  • Have PHP calls successfully querying mock student results from Moodle's MySQL database running on XS.
  • Parse mathematical-operation-based and tally percentage of success with each individual operation (+,-,/,* etc).
  • Parse mathematical operation and check for compliance with standard 4.P.3 Determine values of variables in simple equations, e.g., 4106 – x = 37, 5 = y + 3, and s – y = 3.

Week 10

Wes

  • Get StudentParser.awk to successfully calculate the accuracy for each mathematical operation, plus other relevant information TBD, one example will be success of division with remainders.
  • Get ClassParser.awk to successfully calculate class-wide statistics on the same information
  • Provide Grader.awk which grades each student, calculates a class average, tallys students in each grade interval.

Jeremiah

  • Create Moodle data flow diagram to give an understanding of how the Moodle Server and corresponding database interact with Student and Teachers machines.
  • Install Moodle server and DBMS on a test Virtual Machine.
    • Attempt PHP calls to the Moodle DBMS.
