The moodle plugin allows you to view open exams within a block in Moodle.
Detail: By using the "onlineexam" plug-in, open exams for a user are displayed within a block in Moodle. The data request for open exams of a user can is carried out via LTI. The connection to a user can be established either on the basis of the user name or the email address. If the user name is used, a specified EvaExam custom field can serve as a method of authentication. It is possible to define customized LTI parameters and to map the LTI specific roles "Instructor" and "Learner" in Moodle, e.g. "Learner" --> "Student". It is also possible to use a pop-up message to alert participants about open exams.
This plug-in requires Moodle version 3.1 or higher and EvaExam version 8.0 (2200).
Please install the plug-in into the directory "blocks": /blocks/onlineexam
After installation, the plug-in has to be configured. To do this, please go to: Site administration--> Plugins --> Blocks --> Exams (EvaExam)
There are three sections:
Here you can enter information about the block title that is displayed, user identification, connection timeout and the display of the pop-up dialog.
Connection data for LTI is entered here. Furthermore, additional parameters can be defined which will be transferred as well. You can also define role mappings. If the pop-up dialog shall be used, a regular expression must be specified in order to determine whether the LTI result contains open exams.
