1. Students to User Rich Text Editor while answering
assessment Question

2. Assigning Different Roles to Students inside the activity.

3. Rate (Ratings like Good,Needs Improvement,Excellent e.t c)against the Competencies attached to the activity. Which can be exported with the portfolio and can be attached to the grade book.

I will add some more.....

This is in LAMS 2.3.4 (which I should be testing now so it's out shortly!)

Can you elaborate on this a bit more? What different roles do you see in activities for students?

We are working on this... hopefully for 2.4 we will be able to integrate Evalcomix, a brilliant evaluation system by Universidad de Cadiz that would give LAMS a great flexibility for students to evaluate each other contributions to activities, students to perform self-evaluations and teacher to evaluate students. I'm hoping we can have a demo for this after 2.3.4

Thanks,

Ernie

Let us take an example of an Activity by Name "Virtual Oil Spill" where we represent the videos and flash files two give an idear on oil spill virtually

Where we find the Roles like

1.Coastguard
2.Emergency Services
3.Oil Company
4.Environmentalist
5.Local Resident
6.Ships Captain
7.Media

so students take one role and act in Discussion forum and share the ideas.

To Extend .....

Student login to a flash tool and they find their avtar there and perform the rescue operation (virtually)

Hi Sridhar,

There are examples of role play sequences in LAMS. Here's one by James Dalziel:

http://lamscommunity.org/lamscentral/sequence?seq_id=690433
or a simpler option
http://lamscommunity.org/lamscentral/sequence?seq_id=924470

I think you can do what you are suggestion even today defining roles and branches, right?

Thanks,

Ernie
