How to test the LangLabEmailer

2013/06/08 Leave a comment
  1. The LangLabEmailer, when run, displays no GUI. To monitor:
    1. the progress, view the trace-listener.log;
    2. the results, view:
      1. “_sent” filenames in your assessment file store. NOTE: the LangLabEmailer will rename assessment files, by adding “_sent” to the end of the filename (for easy tracking;no deletions). If this is an issue for you, do not run it!
      2. “sent” items folder of mailbox used ( = mailbox of user logged into AD-domain-joined computer). NOTE: The LangLabEmailer will email assessment files from the language lab collection! (That is its primary purpose.) Specifically, it will send 
        1. as you configured: within your campus email system (unless your campus mail administrator allows mail forwarding),
        2. as you configured:  from the campus mail account you have the right to send from (I have the right to send ca. 3000 messages per day; you may want to inquire with your MS-Exchange admin about your limits),
        3. as you configured:  from the student collection file share classroom data (which has special, relaxed FERPA rules),
        4. per its design – which is primarily based on file ownership which itself is based on who logs in on the originating lab computers and the digital audio lab software’s saving rules for pair and group work, but also by making some honest guesses about the intended recipient, based the file name and, as you configured, the list of teachers using your lab (since from experience these also happen to be logged in for students at times) – , primarily to the presumed originator and to her teacher (and in special cases, as a fallback, to whoever you configured as language lab admin).
        5. If this sounds a tad scary: just start with configuring
          1. a few “dry” test runs (no sending, no renaming, just logging what would happen)
          2. then some limited test runs (small time window and dummy files)
          3. and examine the results which the langlabemailer logs for you in either mode, and you will likely find, it is not scary.
          4. Next: Run. Or up:Langlabemailer table of contents.

  1. LangLabEmailer logs its activities automatically.
    1. image
  2. Please consult the log files which you can find
    1. if you search C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\Data
    2. for the files
      1. “trace-rolling.log” (contains activity log messages).
      2. and, should you run into an Exception, “exception-rolling.log”.
    3. Useful information about the LangLabEmailer working with your MS-Exchange configuration is automatically kept in the same folder:  EwsResponseHttpHeaders.txt, AutodiscoverConfiguration.txt, AutodiscoverRequest.txt, AutodiscoverRequestHttpHeaders.txt, AutodiscoverResponse.txt, AutodiscoverResponseHttpHeaders.txt, EwsRequest.txt, EwsRequestHttpHeaders.txt, EwsResponse.txt.

2013/06/07 Leave a comment
  1. Ver 1.0.1.0
    1. emails as attachments new (hitherto unsent) audio recording or writing assessment or assignment files from the language lab student collection file share to originating student and teacher
    2. attempts to automatically
      1. skip sending small files created during microphone and similar systems tests
      2. reroute email address for files of late students that have been collected under teacher login (simple delimited list, manually editable), but renamed to valid address
      3. reroute files that have been sent under position number rather than student names (including at least to one student of a student pair or group recording)
      4. puts meaningful course name in the  email subject to  easily integrate with email workflow that teachers and students will already be familiar with
    3. provides options to
      1. exclude files from sending
        1. language lab manager: using file name patterns and extensions
        2. teacher:
          1. by marking individual files  as _sent or, preferably, put them in the subfolder
          2. not sending or delay sending until after grading (with inserting feedback, written or voice-insert recorded aural feedback)
          3. send to students only
    4. and more…
  2. Not implemented yet:
    1. Full Support for Sanako ver 6 save files under “last name, first name”

Which prerequisites you need for the LangLabEmailer

2013/06/07 Leave a comment
  1. MS-Exchange (2007 and up) email-server (on-premise; sorry, no Exchange online yet) with Active Directory;
  2. A login to an on-campus domain-joined office PC (tested on Windows 7);
  3. MS-.Net 4.5 (how to find out which);
  4. Preferably a digital audio lab file saving scheme that uses the username (more robust and flexible than always going via file ownership).
  5. Next: Download. Or Langlabemailer (table of contents).
