Hi community,

is anyone out there using Webexas a virtual classroom tool?

If yes I would appreciate is you could share your way of integrating sessions into courses.
I am especially interested in how to track attendance for users ...

Best, Kai

Hi Kai, we have found that the Moodle plugin https://moodle.org/plugins/mod_webexactivity works reasonably well. There are some limitations, and it is still in beta.

For example users creating webex course activities must have an account on the webex server. If you have a limited number of webex accounts then only that number of Moodle users can create activities.

Chris,

thank you for sharing this.

Our IT had issues with this plugin because is stores information not encrypted which seems to insecure for them. Unfortunately a showstopper for us. :-(

Tried using training center SCORM integration but I cannot get the corresponding activities completed, even if users participated.

Best,
Kai
