Educational Groups, User Types & Access Permissions
By edusites
I'm about to install an Elgg SN on an educational support website I manage. Does anyone know if it's possible to have both public and private groups in the same SN. Essentially, I need to have open access for teachers and restriced access for students.
#1 Could a teacher create a group for his / her students and set it up so that only those students can access the group, discussions, etc.?
#2 Could a teacher then choose to share access with another teacher's group to allow a collaborative exchange?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Kind regards, Richard

You must log in to post replies.For education i prefer use Moodle.
http://moodle.org/
Regards.
yeah bro much better moodle a lot of educational features
#1 is possible and pretty easy to do
#2 for a simple easy to do method it would take a bit more time. For a slighty less straightforward way it's easy.
Point #2 has also been covered under the umbrella of "federated Elgg websites" sometime since last year. I had uploaded the initial design schematics at http://connectmyschool.com/
Point #3 .. maybe better to hang out on Moodle groups than fritter precious time here being asinine ;)
I prefer chamilo. It is easier and lightweight.
Chamilo es un nuevo proyecto que opta por el código abierto. En sus comienzos vendrá en dos presentaciones: Chamilo 1.8.6.2, el sucesor directo de Dokeos.. riendo en voz alta aquí lolz ;)
gracias a su mensaje y mi curiosidad -
tengo Chamilo 1.8.7.1 alquitrán estable para jugar con el ahora;-)
tu eres gracioso haha! Hey, que paso con tu signature? =(
