feedbackxblock's Introduction

Feedback XBlock

This is a basic clone of Dropthought for use in Open edX. This used to be called the RateXBlock. We renamed it for better consistency. We are keeping the old one around for backwards-compatibility.

The goal of this XBlock is two-fold:

  1. Allow students to reflect on their learning experience
  2. Provide instructors with feedback on which parts of courses work well and which parts work poorly.

Instructors have a good amount of control over the contents of the block:

Screenshot of the FeedbackXBlock -- good to bad scale Screenshot of the FeedbackXBlock -- scale where good is in the middle Screenshot of the FeedbackXBlock -- numerical scale

This can be placed anywhere in the courseware, and students can provide feedback on those sections. With just a few database queries, we can compile that feedback into useful insights. ;) We do provide aggregate statistics to instructors, but not yet the text of the feedback.

It installs on any Open edX install same as any other xblock:

pip install -e git+https://github.com/pmitros/FeedbackXBlock.git#egg=rate==0.0

From there, add "feedback" to your list of advanced modules, and you're good to go.

feedbackxblock's Issues

Add support for Python 3.8+

Hello!

I've installed the xBlock on Maple release and discovered the following:

When I'm trying to edit and save the xBlock in the studio (see screenshot attached), I'm receiving an error:

Mar 10 09:03:45 lms-maple-dev [service_variant=cms][root][env:sandbox] ERROR [lms-maple-dev  3207192] [user None] [ip None] [signals.py:22] - Uncaught exception from None

AttributeError: module 'cgi' has no attribute 'escape'

Here is where the error line lives:

FeedbackXBlock/feedback/feedback.py

Line 283 in 3cb4ccd

self.prompts[0][item] = cgi.escape(item_submission)

Another place using this function:

FeedbackXBlock/feedback/feedback.py

Line 287 in 3cb4ccd

self.prompts[0]['scale_text'][i] = cgi.escape(likert)

The problem is cgi.escape() was deprecated since py3.2 and removed since py3.8

Could you please update the xBlock to support py3.8+?

AFAIK the preferred replacement for cgi.escape() is html.escape()

PS
I don't know if any other issues related to py3.8+ support existing

Enable support for Django 3.2

Hi all! I'm interested in contributing to the edX open source project and was looking at open issues related to the Django 3.2 upgrade. I saw that FeedbackXBlock is the replacement component for the deprecated RateXBlock component but that FeedbackXBlock is not yet compatible with Django 3.2.

Would it be possible for you all to upgrade this component to be Django 3.2-compatible? I'm happy to help however I can.

You can find the associated edX Django upgrade Github issue here.
