| th1a | hi replaceafill. | 18:59 |
| replaceafill | hey th1a | 18:59 |
| replaceafill | never mind, jelkner wanted something | 18:59 |
| replaceafill | we realized he has a different problem | 19:00 |
| replaceafill | it's a data problem! | 19:00 |
| replaceafill | :) | 19:00 |
| th1a | Is everything resolved? | 19:01 |
| replaceafill | not yet, he's waiting for someone to respond | 19:01 |
| replaceafill | see his "Skills List for CS II" email | 19:01 |
| th1a | What's the deal with the optional skills? | 19:01 |
| replaceafill | we didn't discuss that | 19:02 |
| replaceafill | i think they want what glenda just asked? | 19:02 |
| replaceafill | i updated the aps server btw | 19:02 |
| replaceafill | to use the latest code | 19:03 |
| th1a | They want what that glenda asked about? | 19:03 |
| replaceafill | i mean, the feature we fixed early this week | 19:04 |
| replaceafill | ability to switch from required to optional | 19:04 |
| th1a | OK, so it was just a bug. | 19:05 |
| th1a | Do I need to answer jelkner's email of 56 minutes ago saying that? | 19:06 |
| th1a | Do you just edit the skill? | 19:07 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:07 |
| replaceafill | go to the course -> skills -> set required/optional | 19:07 |
| th1a | It is confusing when people find a bug and then ask you how to do something instead of saying "there's a bug." | 19:07 |
| replaceafill | i think they want to know how to do it | 19:08 |
| replaceafill | they're not saying it's a bug | 19:08 |
| replaceafill | they haven't even seen it | 19:08 |
| th1a | So they have to find the skill. | 19:09 |
| replaceafill | hhmm | 19:09 |
| replaceafill | reading their email for the third time... | 19:09 |
| replaceafill | "How do we (teachers)..." | 19:10 |
| replaceafill | they want *teachers* to do that! | 19:10 |
| replaceafill | teachers can't edit courses | 19:10 |
| th1a | What would courses have to do with it? | 19:11 |
| th1a | Is optional per course? | 19:11 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:11 |
| replaceafill | we can't customize skills per section | 19:11 |
| th1a | Schooltool course. | 19:11 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:12 |
| th1a | This is somewhat beyond my understanding of CanDo. :-( | 19:12 |
| replaceafill | sorry that i didn't catch the "teachers" part earlier | 19:12 |
| replaceafill | but again, jelkner didn't ask about that | 19:12 |
| th1a | This is further than my documentation has progressed. ;-) | 19:13 |
| replaceafill | he's going to ask matt to take charge | 19:13 |
| replaceafill | :D | 19:13 |
| th1a | As far as adding students, it isn't like adding them through the web interface is some hacky workaround for students added during the year. | 19:13 |
| replaceafill | jelkner is just afraid he doesn't know the "import process" | 19:15 |
| replaceafill | and he thinks the manual process will take a lot of time | 19:15 |
| th1a | Probably less than the automated one. | 19:15 |
| th1a | Anyhow. | 19:15 |
| th1a | What is the deal with the optional course skills? | 19:17 |
| th1a | The admin assigns skills to courses. | 19:17 |
| th1a | Then they are "copied" internally. | 19:17 |
| th1a | Then there is some way the admin can make them optional for the course? | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | again: | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | go to the course -> skills -> set required/optional | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | actually, it should be: | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | go to the course | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | click Skills | 19:18 |
| replaceafill | click Set Required/Optional | 19:19 |
| th1a | OK. | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | uncheck what you need to | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | Save | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | :) | 19:19 |
| th1a | Presumably the leader of the course could do this too? | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | haven't tried it | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | but they have schooltool.edit on the course | 19:19 |
| th1a | OK, so that's what I should say? | 19:19 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:20 |
| th1a | Did you guys sort out assigning the skills to multi-term sections? | 19:21 |
| replaceafill | you mean making them different between each linked section? | 19:22 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:22 |
| th1a | Also, just to confirm, this optional thing is supposed to be changed at the course level only, not individual sections? | 19:22 |
| th1a | Oh, he needed them different? | 19:23 |
| th1a | Was that the problem? | 19:23 |
| replaceafill | the optional thing spreads to the sections | 19:24 |
| replaceafill | i think so, if i understand correctly, he wants to change skill attributes just to his sections | 19:25 |
| th1a | OK, check my reply. | 19:29 |
| * replaceafill notices th1a copy/paste the irc :D | 19:30 | |
| replaceafill | looks good | 19:30 |
| th1a | OK, thanks replaceafill. | 19:34 |
| * th1a goes to get Julia. | 19:34 | |
