Moodle Conversations – Limiting Students to Own Comments

Question: How can I set up a discussion between a teacher and her students, but limit the students to only see their own comments? The teacher doesn’t want the students copying responses from each other.

Here’s my response…what would your’s be?

Have you considered using one of the Q&A or Simple forums that Moodle has? I hope I’m not suggesting something you’ve already considered.

Another possibility is that you might use the Learning Diary module and while setting it up, use the Guided Diary option which allows the teacher to setup each area for students but also enables teacher commenting…better explanation here:

Guided diary – guided learning diary is teacher driven diary. Teacher must provide chapters that students can fill in. Teachers can also comment students diary entries, edit their own comments and delete user entries if necessary.

You can get the Learning Diary via this link in my Moodle Habitudes article.

  1. Hi Miguel 🙂 We’ve thought about this too – we use the journal for private conversations between pupils and teachers related to school problems and also have played with individual one to one forums – they are good because students can attach images/work and the teacher can comment on them and continue a private, on-going conversation. I have a few other thoughts here: http://www.moodleblog.org/?p=72
