Ability to export the data, say as csv. All too often we teachers require such data and having it available in a common format that is easy to manipulate and upload to other reporting software is a very useful feature.<br>2. A common way to assign the tasks within the applications would be excellent. Each program has its own features to learn as is, but it would be great if the UI would be consistent throughout all programs.<br>3. The ability to assign tasks that must be completed before students can go on to other work, for instance a student must attempt 10 words in a
particular khangman category before being able to move on to other categories.<br><br>In my opinion this would be implemented as a plugin or module, then individual programs would be adapted to feed information into this new feature.<br><br>Tracking individual students would be a must. I know at my high school all students have individual logins. However, all the local primary schools just use a generic login for which ever room they happen to be in. User management would then perhaps need to be done at some level. Perhaps even just a popup asking for a name when a task is completed so the results could be recorded. This popup could possibly be enabled/disabled when tasks are set, something like a check box to prompt user for their name or use current logged in user.<br><br>Just my thoughts.<br><br>Keep up the outstanding work.<br><br>Ben<br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:

I imagine
that there is some kind of central component where a<br>teacher could define tasks for his pupils like <br><br>- do 10 exercises with KBruch<br>- train following list of words with KHangMan<br>- etc.<br><br>The teacher should also be able to get the results of those exercises. It<br>might be even useful that he could define the exact tasks to solve. For<br>example, he could use KBruch to do some kind of exam with his pupils.<br><br>Interesting points besides how to integrate that in the different edu apps<br>is how to handle user management. For example, do we expect that each pupil<br>got an account on the Linux system or do we have to establish our own user<br>management?<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Sebastian<br><br>PS: Starting tonight, I'm out travelling for work and won't respond.<br>_______________________________________________<br>kde-edu mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:kde-edu@mail.kde.org"
