I'm pleased to announce the release of ECAssignmentBox 1.2. New features, bugfixes, and performance improvements implemented during winter semester 2006/2007. Check CHANGES.txt in the distribution for details. ECAssignmentBox 1.2 is available at the following locations: <http://wwwai.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/software/ecab/releases/1.2> <http://plone.org/products/ecassignmentbox/releases/1.2> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ECAssignmentBox is a Plone product which allows the creation, submission and grading of online assignments (exercises, homework), both for traditional on-site courses and for e-learning. ECAssignmentBox is licensed under the GPL and is freely available from: <http://wwwai.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/software/ecab> <http://plone.org/products/ecassignmentbox> The basic idea is that teachers create assignment boxes into which students submit their answers or solutions. The student submissions are then put through a number of workflow states, typically submitted, accepted and graded. The teacher can view the submissions, assign a grade and add feedback. The assignment workflow is designed to accommodate different processes. Assignment boxes can be grouped together using ECFolders, which provide specialized view templates and statistics for the assignments they contain. ECFolders can be nested. You can use them to represent, for example, courses and weekly worksheets. -- Michael Piotrowski, M.A. <[email protected]> Otto von Guericke University, Magdeburg WDOK Research Group ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
