Moodle Hot Question module
The first moodle activity for physical classroom. The idea comes from
Purdue University's hotseat.
Inside or outside classroom, students post questions into a Hot Question
activity from notebook, netbook, android, iPhone, iPod or any other device
which can access the moodle site. Students can also vote on others'
questions, so that the hottest questions will be popped up to the top of
the list. Teachers can make oral comments on selected questions in classroom.
See the download page for more suggestions and way to use this plugin.
NOTE: If you plan on disciplinary action for any inappropriate question,
you should download the evidence BEFORE you remove questions or remove rounds,
as once removed, questions and rounds are not recoverable.

Moodle Hot Question module
The first moodle activity for physical classroom. The idea comes from
Purdue University's hotseat.
Inside or outside classroom, students post questions into a Hot Question
activity from notebook, netbook, android, iPhone, iPod or any other device
which can access the moodle site. Students can also vote on others'
questions, so that the hottest questions will be popped up to the top of
the list. Teachers can make oral comments on selected questions in classroom.
See the download page for more suggestions and way to use this plugin.
NOTE: If you plan on disciplinary action for any inappropriate question,
you should download the evidence BEFORE you remove questions or remove rounds,
as once removed, questions and rounds are not recoverable.

Moodle Hot Question module
The first moodle activity for physical classroom. The idea comes from
Purdue University's hotseat.
Inside or outside classroom, students post questions into a Hot Question
activity from notebook, netbook, android, iPhone, iPod or any other device
which can access the moodle site. Students can also vote on others'
questions, so that the hottest questions will be popped up to the top of
the list. Teachers can make oral comments on selected questions in classroom.
See the download page for more suggestions and way to use this plugin.
NOTE: If you plan on disciplinary action for any inappropriate question,
you should download the evidence BEFORE you remove questions or remove rounds,
as once removed, questions and rounds are not recoverable.

Moodle Hot Question module
The first moodle activity for physical classroom. The idea comes from
Purdue University's hotseat.
Inside or outside classroom, students post questions into a Hot Question
activity from notebook, netbook, android, iPhone, iPod or any other device
which can access the moodle site. Students can also vote on others'
questions, so that the hottest questions will be popped up to the top of
the list. Teachers can make oral comments on selected questions in classroom.

November 2018 Changed Behat tests due to new language string for the Post button.
Changed the code for Export to CSV to make it also work with PostgreSQL.
Reorganized the fields in the Export CSV to make it easier to read in spreadsheets.

teacher priority and thumb up for heat. This is due to Moodle 3.6 has added
svg versions of the files and uses them by default.

Recent Activity block when anyone posts an entry in a Hot Question acitivity.
Added a Recent activity setting that lets you limit students to seeing

any round in the current Hot Question activity if they deem all the questions in the
round are no longer needed, or if the round is empty. Can also be used to reset
the activity. If you need to keep a copy of the questions in a round, you must download
them before the round is removed.
