Who am I teaching? - New FrogCode Widget

[pconkie 626]

Handy widget to show pictures of particular students that the currently logged in user teaches. Optionally associate an ePortfolio collection with the widget so that you can click on the student to quickly open their copy of that ePortfolio (if it exists).  e.g set widget to SEN group and associate IEP ePortfolios.  e.g. set widget to PP group and associate Pen Portrait ePortfolios.  e.g. set widget to Gifted & Talented group and associate ePortfolios used to record G&T activities.

Choose one from 7 student groups to be displayed: PP, SEN, AGT, FSM, Looked after, Services child, EAL. Of course you can add multiple widgets to the same page/site. Students colour coded by year group.

Now if you could just get it to sort by year group......... 

[gbligh 258]

How do I get the bunch of numbers and letters I need for the ePortfolio box? @pconkie

[pconkie 626]

@gbligh Go to frogdrive --> ePortfolios --> collections

Right click on the collection you want and select "inspect".

You want the data-uuid.

Sometimes i have a go.....  realise it's too "geeky" then give up quickly!!! 

[gbligh 258]

I have given this a go, however, I am getting an 'No eportfolio found for this student' message. @pconkie

[pconkie 626]

Student username has to be in the eportfolio title. Is this the case?

[gbligh 258]

Didn't realise you had to have that - cheers Paul, all sorted now and working.

So have you created Eportfolios for every kid in school.......  or have you only made on for those kids??   EAL G&T Etc..

@Graham Quince @adamwCouldn't Frog auto populate a group based upon this information pulled in from the MIS???  Would be mint if you could build a "Eportoflio" only for those kids who are PP EAL etc!!  And if they are added to the group it automatically created the eport!!!

[adamw 223]

Interesting idea - I'll bring it up with our MIS guru.

Well the data's all ready pulled into Frog......   just needs using!! 

[adamw 223]

True, but making it part of the import means that it will be kept up to date, if the group members change. You could probably do it now with a frog-code widget, but it would be a manual task that you'd have to do every time any of the group members changed.

We just have ePortfolios for our PP students currently.  Thinking about SEND, but we haven't got the PP portfolios working like we want yet.  Yes, this "Who am I teaching" widget was a means to an end, rather than the end in itself.......more to come....issue at the moment is: there isn't enough widgets around that can take advantage of the possibilities ePortfolios open up.

Morning guys how far did you get with this??  I've just been asked by our SEND department if there is a way to link file from the "who am i teaching" page's.......  and i said " well the idea is you could link them to their own little site............"  After her eyes lit up i then said but i haven't played with it yet!!

@gbligh @pconkie

[ADT 1,255]

So after a quick play i came up with....

Is there a way to auto populate other info on this page???  Say Form, Year Group if they are PP SEND etc??
