Note
titleCaution

Be sure to review the GoReact tool settings and check the training videos to ensure you are happy with your video assignment. Most error messages can be resolved by editing the tool settings and ensuring that the assignment is set up correctly.

The following important points should be considered:

  1. Ensure you change the Launch Container from 'Default' to 'New Window' otherwise GoReact may be unable to access your camera and microphone to record videos.
  2. Ensure you select the correct course when creating your GoReact assignments. You could otherwise accidently use some of the restricted licenses for students.
  3. Only users enrolled into your Moodle course with the role of ‘Student’ will be synchronised to GoReact and have access to your video assignments.
  4. When setting up a new assignment, you may see a 'Students will pay $29.99' message (see image on the right-hand side), this doesn't apply to our licensing model and you can skip the message by selecting 'next'.

  • If students are seeing the error message "We're terribly sorry, but it looks like your instructor hasn't finished setting up GoReact for this assignment. Please let them know." Then the GoReact assignment was created in Moodle, but never opened by a tutor/administrator. Once you (the instructor) open the GoReact assignment and select the GoReact assignment type and any additional settings, then this error will be resolved. When you open the assignment in Moodle and see the GoReact dashboard, then you know that the assignment is set up correctly.
  • If you are seeing the error message "GoReact doesn't appear to be setup correctly. The referenced resource was either missing or malformed and could not be copied to this activity."  ThenThen, you most likely attempted to copy the assignment outside of GoReact. GoReact doesn't support external assignment copying. Instead, you will need to create a new assignment in Moodle, open it, and then use the "Copy a previous assignment" functionality within the GoReact tool.
