   1  Feedback-Module
   2  ===============
   3  Overview
   4  --------
   5  The Feedback-Module is intended to create individual surveys in an easy way.
   6  
   7  This module consists of two parts
   8  a) the "activity" feedback (required)
   9  b) the "sideblock" feedback (optional)
  10  
  11  The activity is the main part an can run without the block. Here you can create, fill out or analyse the surveys.
  12  The sideblock is an optional part. It works as a bridge between different courses and
  13  an central placed feedback-activity. So you can create one feedback on the main site of moodle and then publish
  14  it in many courses.
  15  
  16  Requirements
  17  ------------
  18  Moodle 1.9 or later
  19  
  20  Installation
  21  ------------
  22     The zip-archive includes the same directory hierarchy as moodle
  23     So you only have to copy the files to the correspondent place.
  24     copy the folder feedback.zip/mod/feedback --> moodle/mod/feedback
  25     and the folder feedback.zip/blocks/feedback --> moodle/blocks/feedback
  26     The langfiles normaly can be left into the folder mod/feedback/lang.
  27     The only exception is the feedback-block. The langfile is block_feedback.php and
  28     have to be copied into the correspondent lang folder of moodle/moodledata.
  29     All languages should be encoded with utf8.
  30  
  31  After it you have to run the admin-page of moodle (http://your-moodle-site/admin)
  32  in your browser. You have to loged in as admin before.
  33  The installation process will be displayed on the screen.
  34  That's all.
  35  
  36  using the block-feature
  37  -----------------------
  38     1. create one or more new feedback-activitys on the moodle main-site
  39     2. go into some course and enable the feedback-block. This block now shows the feedbacks from the main-site.
  40     3. login as student and go into the course where the feedback-block is enabled
  41     4. fill out the feedback chosen from block
  42     5. login as admin and look at the feedback you created above
  43     6. now you can analyse the answers over the courses
  44  
  45  good luck
