Feedback module
The Feedback module allows you to create and conduct surveys to collect feedback from students. It is smaller in scope and easier to use than the Questionnaire module, and unlike the Survey module allows you to write your own questions, rather than choose from a list of pre-written survey instruments.
Questionnaire module
The Questionnaire module allows students to complete online feedback style forms using a variety of user input methods. It allows you to create your own questions, unlike the Survey module which has presets to choose from, and it allows for more advanced questionnaires than the simpler and easier Feedback module.
Face-to-face module
Useful for blended learning programmes, the Face-to-face module allows users to keep track of training events which require advance booking. Sessions can be given over multiple days, confirmation messages are sent on enrolment or cancellation and reminder messages are sent a few days before the session is scheduled to start.
Book module
The Book module makes it easy to create multi-page resources, with a book-like format which can be printed entirely or by chapter. The module is not interactive, however you can link to resources from within a book and include multimedia objects.
Simple Portfolio module
With the Simple Portfolio module each user gets an e-portfolio which is displayed as a new tab in their profile and a file repository. The portfolio holds "elements" which contain reflection, date, file attachment and a simple permission setting (private/public). It also has a block for direct access through the course area.
Customised modules
Kineo Open Source are happy to validate other modules for customers. Quality often varies amongst third party modules, so Kineo Open Source perform rigorous testing on any requested modules prior to deciding whether it is suitable to install or requires further work. Kineo Open Source will also quote for building modules from scratch.
All these modules are available in Kineo Open Source's standard Moodle build from March 2009, click for full details on our hosting options.
