Gloucestershire has been using their student record system for management of assessment for about the last five or six years. Students were submitting files on that. Any other assessment basically was done manually. About two and a half years ago, when I arrived at university, they had a list from staff of about 100 developments that they wanted done to the CMA system. And I took one look at this and said, well, Moodle will do about 80 or 90 of those out of the box. So why aren't we using Moodle for the front end of this? And then just using student records for the end of it. So this is what I arrived at. Basically they were using Moodle for learning and teaching. We had all these extra facilities, not all of them being used, but quizzes were group assignments. And file submissions were going direct into student records, but all of the administrative stuff like dates and suspected breach was all being done by student records. So the solution was we would integrate the two and we'd make Moodle do everything as the front end to save staff and students going into multiple systems. And the student record system would be used for the records. It's the admin tool, so use it for the admin, but use Moodle as the front end for the learning, the teaching and the assessments. The question there was how do we integrate the two together. And the first step for that was to recognise the bits that we already were and where the sources of the data were coming from. So courses and modules were coming from student records. So were the enrolments on to those, validated course details, things like that. We're all coming from student records already. Whereas the assignment brief, the due dates, quizzes, the date the students actually submit, the core data for those would eventually come from Moodle because that's where the student was submitting it to. So the asterix are the ones we were already passing to Moodle anyway to create courses and modules to put the staff and students on them. And the validated course details has a different colour start because that was in development. We had a parallel development to put module guides online and automate them at the same time. So the techie bit, we have a data warehouse sitting in the middle. We use MySQL for Moodle, Microsoft SQL for the student records. We have a data warehouse sitting in the middle of it that's also used for reporting. So we had schedule tasks. And that was our easiest way to create database writing and Moodle APIs to do everything we wanted to do. An assessment setting, schedule task where we decided these were summative assessments. We wanted a specific set of settings so we'd go with those. Assessment dates were to be passed from Moodle back into. And we did it by creating a link code. That link code represented the module, the semester and the academic year and which assessment it was, number one, number two. And that could be pasted into any assessable activity. Assignments, quizzes, forums, blogs, anything that could be assessed can have that ID number put in. And then we rolled it out. Pilot first. We started off with some staff just using Moodle because they were familiar with it from other institutions or from their formative assignments and you transfer the grades manually. And then rolling it out to a small group and then on to everybody else. And some of my colleagues, one of whom is sat somewhere in the back, I think Maggie, were responsible for doing a whole load of compulsory staff training to bring the staff up to speed with all of this. It did raise a few issues. Starting with a pre-pilot where we didn't have any of these integrations in place. It was just getting people used to using Moodle assignments. And then handling offline activities. We started by just saying, well, get rid of all of the submission types. But then Coventry and Catalyst developed their barcode scanner. So we tested that and we've had that in use since about October. Overall very positive. The main benefit being that they're not being a requirement of hopping between the learning environment and the student records to do your assessments. So it all came down to one front end. But we did have a few other fairly major issues that are still going on. I know I've just been up to Roger's talk for what they did at Solent and they had some of the similar ones. The data we get from Central Records, not the best. Practice doesn't always match policy. Dates are supposed to be in there before the beginning of a semester. Practice does not always match policy. So the integrations were written based on the policy and then got adapted to try and match as many different variations of the practice as we can. Or to be honest, I've told staff that's not policy so you can't have it. We're still addressing some of those issues. The accurate data and the policy one. That practice is ingrained. People have been doing it for four or five years. Getting them to change is not easy. There we go. I've caught up with myself. There should be another slide there, I think. There we go. So what we're then doing, one of the bits of practice was some of our staff seem to have difficulty copying and pasting a link code. So they want a button to click that will insert the link code and things like that. We actually released the feedback to students. Feedback and grace to students and to student records automatically after 20 working days. So that's something we need to tweak a little bit. And a shameless plug on my very last slide. Anybody who's interested in using Moodle and Mahara, the Mahoodle for this year is being held at Gloucestershire. So if you want to register for it and come along and talk about anything to do with Moodle or Mahara, register on that site. Thank you. I'm here till Wednesday if anybody wants to ask me anything that takes more than six minutes. Any questions? Thank you very much. Thank you so much.
