This Moodle module provides very simple yet useful functionality. When added into a
|
|
|
7 |
course, it behaves as a graded activity. The grade for each student is took from a
|
|
|
8 |
final grade in another course. Combined with
|
|
|
9 |
[metacourses](http://docs.moodle.org/en/Course_meta_link), this allows course
|
|
|
10 |
designers to effectively organise courses into separate units.

Usage
|
|
|
34 |
-----
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
* Create a main course and one or few other courses that should act as a sub-courses of
|
|
|
37 |
the main course.
|
|
|
38 |
* Into the main course, add a new instance of the Subcourse activity module for each
|
|
|
39 |
of the referenced course (sub-course) to fetch grades from.
|
|
|
40 |
* Enrol students into all courses (the main one as well as the referenced ones).
|
|
|
41 |
* 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.
