Need help on site for classes - student management
Hello, I need to come up with a solution really quick and hoping someone could help. Drupal 6.5. I created a site for my classes I teach. 4 sections, 25 students each. I want to have each students registered, not for blog or forum, but for them to see their grade/assignment status for themselves. Is this possible? What I need is that they see their personal page upon login, where I post their grade on each quiz/assignment, and message from me when needed. I have been trying to check OG, which doesn't seems to be the right module for this, while OG page has been off line since last night. Any advice would be much appreciated. I need to get this done this weekend. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com
The coherent access module might do just what you are looking for: http://drupal.org/project/coherent_access We have used it to accomplish what you describe on several sites. Cheers, Bill A-NO-NE Music wrote:

Nice! Thank you so much for this info. I think this would do. I am installing on my local server. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com
This Coherent Access module seems to work well for my purpose. I have one additional question. Is there any way to catalog each students by tagging them? For example, <year> < class name> and <section name>. Without some ways to categorize them, I am afraid student management will be quite chaotic down the road. I did installed OG to see how it works but I removed it since it seems to be aimed at different purpose than what I need. Any advice would be appreciated. --- Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com On 08/10/18(土), at 14:22, Bill Fitzgerald wrote:

You could use either core profile module or the Content Profile (http://drupal.org/project/content_profile)module to get this done. Core profile would probably be easier, although content profile provides a lot more flexibility. Then, you'd want to use Views to generate your class lists -- Views will work with either method.

Thank you so much. Un fortunately I haven't been able to make this to work. The new Views 2 under Drupal 6 is so different from previous Views. I even installed the advanced help as well as Simple Views module. I originally had a problem with Views path, which Simple Views module kinda solved for me, but I feel I should be able to create the path without Simple Views module. I attached class sections with Core Profile to every user, but Views doesn't show it as a filter option. I then installed Content Profile, but I can't figure out how to associate it with each user accounts, especially I don't need to create bio/profile for users. I only need to be able to list students by class sections. P.S., I feel I should had started this site with Drupal 5, where I am much more comfortable with. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com
As soon as I hit [Send], I realized my error. Core User Profile isn't listed under User! Huh. Also noticed I need to create Page Display first in order to create the path. I think I can get this done now.

Drupal 6.5. I thought Coherent Access module was the ticket but I am having problems with 6.x-1.0. Every time the node is modified, Private setting flips to public, and everyone can see the node. There is no such issue I found on the project page. Before I investigate this problem, I need to ask if I am on the right track. To recap, I needed to create a private page for each student where they can see their grade status. I need to have student upload assignments. I made their private page editable except all the fields those which shows their grades per quiz/ project. I couldn't find any other way for them to be able to upload files which is attached to their private page. The problem is that, because of Coherent Access module problem, as soon as they attach > save, the page becomes public. Note that I do not want to give permission to student for creating any content. I want Comments only, and Comment won't allow uploading files other than images even with FCKeditor, as far as I can see. Any help would be appreciated. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com
This sounds like a bug; I put a placeholder ticket in the issue queue at http://drupal.org/node/325776 RE the files issue, you could try the filefield module at http://drupal.org/project/filefield -- this would also allow field-level permissions. A-NO-NE Music wrote:

You could try the Publish Content module. Unfortunately, I have had problems uploading to CVS, but there is a working copy I attached to this thread in the issue queue http://drupal.org/node/275994#comment-952926 Good luck!

Thank you. Do I need to do anything about this? I don't think there is anything I need to add.

Thank you but, unfortunately, this won't solve my problem since I still need to make the node to be editable to the students for File Field CCK to work, and once they hit Save, the private page will be public. Is there any other way? -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com
