We've been discussing the need for a component that does this. Lot's of lecturers at King's College want their students to enter 'essay style' answers and aren't satisfied with the MCQ type answers that Adapt assessments usually contain. Whilst there is options like the Open Text Input. Information that is entered here is 'lost' when submitted.
This could have a few options. You could automatically get the email addresses from the LMS of the learner and teacher and have it automatically email, or have the learner add it manually. You could also provide pre-built forms that are emailed out or even converted into a pdf/word doc. Similar to the H5P documentation tool.
Whilst 'sendto' isn't an ideal solution (personally when I use it it tries to use the mac email client which I haven't even setup yet), I feel it is a start and learners can be told to copy + paste the text into their own email client as well. If this isn't doesn't work then looking into a mailing server may be worthwhile as Matt suggested.
The extension sounds of interest too, kind of like a poor man's xAPI. I feel like this would be harder to create. Helen could you think of any specific stats you would like to track with this?
I'll be happy to create this component or assist others in doing so. I should be free next week to start.
Cheers,
Simon
