Each Learning Plan includes reports highlighting the trainings needed to complete the plan, the start and end date of the training, the learners and the status of the training. All in all, it is a great plugin to manage organizational learning.

Moodle blocks can be very useful, adding productive features to any page or course.  With each block you can specify its location and its intended audience.  One of the most versatile blocks is the HTML block. You can add text, images, web links, audio and video files, YouTube films and flash files.

The HTML Block can be used to add information, activities or resources that you may want accessible to your students longer than a course or that may be of interest to your students but does not really relate to a particular course.  Because blocks can appear on any page or course your students will find it easily without being signposted there.  It is a different way to engage with your students or to get them to engage with each other.

The DemoStudent block gives instructors a way to enroll a "demostudent" in their course, then switch back and forth between their instructor view and the student view.

Students have a different view of your course than instructors do. This block provides a way to test the student experience beyond the existing Switch role to... link in the Settings block.  Instructors in a course can use the DemoStudent block to create a personal "demostudent" account, and then switch between the demostudent user and their instructor role.  The demostudent user can complete assignments and quizzes with persistent data to verify grading, and can be used to test restricted access using groups or groupings.

Shows a teacher all of the assignments and manual quiz questions (essays and file responses) that have been submitted, but not graded.

The block is configured to work with groups that is, teachers will only see the assignments submitted by students if they are both members of the same group. You'll have to let me know if it works with courses that don't use groups at all.

You can install the block on the Front Page and it will show ungraded assignments for ALL courses, and if you put the block on a course page it will only show the ungraded assignments for that course.

A block to display dataform content on the course page.

As its name suggests, the dataform_view block allows the instructor to display in a block a selected dataform view. The flexibility of the dataform views allows for a variety of applications. For instance, with the dataform's Interval view type, the content of the dataform block can be made to change periodically, sequentially or randomly, for purposes such as 'Quote of the Day', 'Weekly news', 'Random pic' etc. With the dataform's Fancybox view, the dataform block may be used to populate to the course page complete photo galleries. Since the content of a view is constrained by user permissions, the dataform block may be used to display on the course page restricted information to user's eyes only.
