Point of view - Feedback
Maintained by
Astor Bizard, Quentin Fombaron
Did you ever want to know the feelings of students about your courses, exercises or other activities? Point of View is a reaction system with emojis representing feelings; students can vote and rate activities and hence share their experiences. It improves social networking and gamification in your courses with students and professors reactions.
Point of view plugin allows to add customizable reaction buttons to moodle activities, display the number of users who reacted and the type of reaction or specify graphically difficulty levels for activities with color tracks. And it is fully customizable!
Comments
Comments are no longer open for new posts. Existing comments remain available to read.
It is a kinda tough job (though, feasible).
Difficulty for each module are stored as block configuration data.
Block configuration data storage is standard across all moodle blocks, and is stored within the block_instances table. There, the configdata field contains a base64-encoded string of the block configuration data.
I hope you will get this sorted out.

I´m trying to get the difficulty of each module directly from the DB, where can I found them?
Thank you,
Mikel.
Thank you for your suggestion, I will add it in my list for future versions
Comments really seem a nice thing to have, the next release should be adding them - but I cannot provide you with a release date yet.
Best regards,

Thanks again for the quick reply. I think the default emoji looks exactly like the sad face emoji. But this is not a big issue, and we'll try to solve the issue by designing our own emoji.

Are you sure it is not the grayed combination of the 3 emoji you are seeing? This is the default when no votes have been cast.
And, you may find that it looks a little too much like the sad face. In that case, you can design your own default emoji, and register it in the plugin administration settings as group_.png.

This is odd. The default emoji we see is the sad face. No feedback has been given yet. Maybe this has something to do with the Moodle version (3.9) or the course settings. I need to take a closer look at this from our side. Thank you for a quick answer!

The default emoji shown is either:
- The "neutral" one (described by the group_.png picture if you set a custom one), in the case no votes have been cast on the activity yet,
- A combination of emoji, representing the set of votes that have already been cast on the activity.
If you want the default emoji to show on any case, you can either:
- Uncheck "Show other users reactions" (this will completely hide what other users have voted),
- Set all group emoji to a neutral one (but this will leave the neutral emoji even when the user has voted).
Best regards,
Astor
Thank you for a very useful plugin. There's one thing that slightly bothers me and my colleagues: the plugin shows sad face emoji as the default (meaning it's the only emoji shown to the student before actually giving the feedback). Could the neutral face emoji be set as the default?

Thank you for you nice feedback ! This idea has been discussed and will likely be implemented in the future - how distant is that future, I sadly cannot tell.
Best regards,
Astor
A suggestion for a future release ?

Thank you for your feedback!
This plugin has not been thought to support rtl mode yet.
I'm adding this issue for future developments.
For the moment, the only fix that comes to my mind is for you to add custom CSS in the Administration > Appearance tab, to fix the pop-up texts position.
I hope this helps at least a little.
Best regards,
Astor
thank you for your cool plugin.
The issue we face is when using this plugin with rtl mode, the pop-up texts of emojis (I'm getting better, etc.) are showing out of activities main frame. They're shifted to the left & are not showing up above the emojis. Is there any way to fix that?
Sincere Regards
