Description

Workload Assessment

The Workload Assessment block lets students record the number of hours they spend on each course every week, and gives quality managers cohort-wide statistics on student workload across the semester.

 For students

  • Log weekly hours per course directly in the block using + / ' buttons or an h:mm input field.
  • A personal My Statistics page with KPI cards, weekly and per-course charts, and CSV export.

 For quality managers

A dedicated "Workload Manager" role is created automatically on install.

  • Manage cohorts — group students by study programme, department, and activation period.
  • Assign members — by search, in bulk by department/institution, or imported from an existing Moodle cohort.
  • Assign courses — depends on the cohort's course-management mode:
    • Cohort mode — pick courses from the category tree; reorder them and toggle on/off per cohort.
    • Enrollment mode — courses are taken automatically from each student's own Moodle enrolments, with per-student excludes and manual additions.
  • Aggregate statistics — KPI cards, average-hours and active-students charts, a top-10 pie chart, and a filterable student table with one-click drill-down and CSV export.

 Configuration

  • Site-wide defaults — max hours per course/week, increment per click, courses per page, and course display order.
  • Course-management mode — choose Cohort or Enrollment (see above).

 Requirements & notes

  • Moodle 4.5+ and PHP 7.4+
  • Ships with English, German, and Ukrainian translations.
  • Supports the Moodle Privacy API (GDPR).
