Pimenko Feedback Radar extends Moodle’s native Feedback activity by adding a powerful visual analytics layer. Based on rated multichoice – single answer questions organized by label, it automatically calculates average scores per category and displays them as an intuitive radar chart. Teachers and administrators can instantly compare individual performance against group and course averages, spot trends at a glance, and export comprehensive reports for further analysis, all without leaving Moodle.
In short, with the ‘Feedback Radar report‘, you can :
- Visualize Feedback activity results as a radar chart, organized by label, skill categories or thematic groups
- Automatically group rated multichoice – single answer questions sharing the same label and calculate their average score per category
- Compare three levels of results at a glance : the individual learner’s average, their group’s average, and the global average across all participants in the course
- Export data as CSV for deeper analysis : detailed responses per learner, thematic averages per user, per group, or across all participants

Customizable exclusions #

This ensures that calculations reflect only meaningful responses, improving data accuracy.
