        • implement a simple way to send assignments to teacher

          we need to send assignments editing a document at course material and uploading the file with a name that identify yourself. I think it's a good idea to implement a way only to submit assignment to the teacher, so the teachr knows who send the file and students have a "Send your assignment here" label

          • Default to sorting course list by open courses

            The course listing page at http://p2pu.org/course/list doesn't default to sorting by open courses first. This would probably be the most sensible default.

            • improve formatting on notification emails

              right now there's not a lot of white space and the stripped down formatting looks kind of messy. it would be nice to format them a bit nicer.

              • Q&A area, rather than forum

                A simple questions and answer layout, say something like uservoice itself, but instead of idea it would be a question and answer follows, makes things more clear and easy.

                • some way to link to a comment in a thread.

                  In the comment template we could add some way to link to a comment in the thread.

                  Sometimes I want to do this, and there's no way to reveal the "permalink" to that comment in the current site.

                  • Better timezone handling across the board

                    Course members often need to decide on international group meeting times. So far the votes have been outsourced to third party applications generally. A simple poll (Drupal core) could facilitate the process of meeting decisions.

                    from stian:

                    Initially in our specs (for the second cycle) we had a calendar. The idea, which I got from Edufire, which does this very well, was that you would tell the system your time zone when you signed up, and all events would then be displayed in your time zone - for a project as global as ours, that would be quite important. However,… more

                    • Improve course list filter

                      Filtering by course status doesn't appear to be working right now. I am using FF3.6 on Mac OS X. I have tried filtering just by status and with status and keyword search, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

                      Given the small number of courses on offer right now, I wouldn't describe this as a critical issue, but I think it's worth mentioning.

                      • custom chat capability: irc meets skype chat

                        irc is awesome because people can add themselves and it's totally free and open, but it would be nice to have the added features of a) adding users to a chat so that they receive the transcript even if they weren't there in person, and b) have it logged automatically, possibly to a course-specific location.

                          Seems as if these are being stripped out right now. I'm trying to use it to embed a calendar and student work, but no such luck yet.

                          • course suggestion feature

                            should let people indicate if they would be willing to run the course or not, and integrate nicely with the "create a course" workflow. Also include an "Adopt this Course" feature for courses whose organisers are no longer able to run them. This adoption mechanism could also be used for course ideas with no obvious owner.

                                    • Filter course by language

                                      It'd be nice to have a way to filter out or search for courses by the language it's in. Maybe even a default view by what my primary language is so when I land on the courses page that it shows those courses.

                                      • CSS change - make forum text left aligned.

                                        Small change to the CSS to make forum text left aligned. Currently, URL's break the formatting in a bad way.

                                        • Tone down the colour scheme a little.

                                          The bright yellow is very loud, the colour scheme on this feedback page is better.

                                          • Enable sub forums/boards

                                            Allow admins to create sub forums or boards so multiple section/teacher courses can operate on site and in an organized manner.

                                            It would be great if this were multilevel too, so each teacher could organize the course their own way.

                                            This also allows students to subscribe to the teacher they need to without worrying about their email overflowing with topics that don't apply to them :).
