[edx-code] rst2edx

2016-08-23 Thread Gregor von Laszewski


I am not sure where to post this, but we are looking for a trivial 
conversion from RST into edx. What we want to use is not latex2edx, but 
actually rst.

We do not need fancy things just dealing with the sections, subsections and 
horizontal sections. Do you have such a tool, and if not could it be made 
so the community could use it?

Re: [edx-code] Using courses in EDX.ORG in my Openedx instance

2016-08-23 Thread Amish Gandhi
No you cannot use the courses on edx.org. They are created by partners who 
have partnered with edX. More about partnering with edX to publish content 
on edx.org 
here: http://learning.perpetualny.com/blog/open-edx-for-corporate-use 

You could reach out to the partners and work out an agreement with them to 
use the appropriate content.

[edx-code] Linking multiple courses' content to 'master' course through CMS

2016-08-23 Thread Ethan Barden
Apologies if this is the incorrect place for this question!

Currently we have multiple high schools using our installation of Open edX 
to access content that we have developed.  As it stands, we've created 
separate courses for each school, filled with the same content.  We've done 
this to segregate student data between schools, so that educators at one 
school cannot see the email address or marks of students at another school.

As it stands, when we want to modify the content we provide to schools, we 
need to separately make identical changes to many different courses.  Is 
there a better way to do this?  In essence, I'd like a way to link separate 
cohorts back to the same 'master' content, where staff and students from 
different cohorts cannot access each other's information.  The existing 
'Cohorts' functionality is unsuitable, for example, because I cannot find a 
way to restrict staff to access information about particular cohorts.

Thanks very much for your help.
