QUAMP verfügt über eine Schnittstelle zum LMS (Lern-Management-System) Moodle. Diese ermöglicht es, in Moodle-Kursen Links zu Evaluationsfragebögen einzublenden, die pro Kurs und Studierenden nur einmal gültig sind. Die Schnittstelle ist als Moodle-Plugin (Block) realisiert.

This Moodle block module enables you to show up course evaluation links within a sidebar block in your Moodle courses. The given URL leads a student to a feedback questionnaire managed by your QUAMP instance.

• Moodle 1.7.x to Moodle 1.9.x (other versions may work, but not tested)

The following global/default settings are available.

• QUAMP server URL. Your QUAMP instance, e.g. http://yourname.quamp.de (including protocol and host names)
• Connection timeout. Timeout in seconds waiting for QUAMP response
• API key. API key to get allowed connecting QUAMP instance

• Block Title. Course evaluation block title
• Invitation text. Text to invite students
• Questionnaire link text. Link text to click on
• Help page URL for course editors. URL of a Help/FAQ page to link to from instance/course settings page

Lecturers may overwrite some of the global/default settings at instance (course) level.

• Invitation text. Text shown up in the course evaluation block
• Questionnaire link text. Link text shown up to click on
• Course key. Key of the counter part QUAMP course

Lecturers may set the course key manually. This helps when no course key is available at all. Setting the course key manually overwrites the course key given by the specified DB field (see global settings).

To ensure that no Moodle user (student) can fill in the questionnaire multiple times the user's username will be encoded (MD5 hash) and transmitted when requesting QUAMP for survey URLs. This user key is only used to check whether or not a user (student) has already been participated.
