With the Student Folder module students can upload documents which can be made visible by teachers. This facilitates publication of student's documents in a course and improves exchange of knowledge.
The student folder has two features: on the one hand participants can upload their documents in the student folder which can be made visible for other students immediately after the upload or after the teacher's approval. On the other hand it is possible to import documents from the activity assignment. Here teachers can decide which documents should be visible to all participants or name individual students to release documents.
The plugin is available for Moodle 2.7+. This version is for Moodle 3.7.
-

- Approved by default
- Maximum number of attachments

You can find a cheat sheet for the plugin on the AMC website and a video tutorial in german only in the AMC YouTube Channel.
We try our best to deliver bug-free plugins, but we can not test the plugin for every platform, database, PHP and Moodle version. If you find any bug please report it on GitHub. Please provide a detailed bug description, including the plugin and Moodle version and, if applicable, a screenshot.
You may also file a request for enhancement on GitHub. If we consider the request generally useful and if it can be implemented with reasonable effort we might implement it in a future version.
You may also post general questions on the plugin on GitHub, but note that we do not have the resources to provide detailed support.
