2 | <b>Declare another class as neighbor</b>. |

3 | <br> |
||
4 | !href cmd=help&special_parm=neighbor Neighborhood relation |
||
5 | between two classes will be effective only when |
||
6 | supervisors of both classes declare the other as its neighbor, either for |
||
7 | supervisor, for participants, or for both. |
||
8 | <p> |
||
9 | Although the principle is that people from a neighboring class can never |
||
10 | modify your class (unless they are |
||
3970 | bpr | 11 | !href cmd=help&special_parm=share sharing teaching materials |
1384 | czzmrn | 12 | with you), you should |
13 | declare another class as neighbor only if you can trust its supervisor. |
||
14 | <p> |
||
15 | By declaring a class as your neighbor for supervisor, you are allowing the |
||
16 | latter to |
||
17 | !href cmd=help&special_parm=import import |
||
3970 | bpr | 18 | teaching materials from your class. That means that he will gain access to possible |
3921 | bpr | 19 | sensible data of your class, such as hidden worksheets or exercises. Make sure |
1384 | czzmrn | 20 | that he will not reveal these data back to your participants. |
21 | <p> |
||
22 | What's more, by importing participant accounts from your class, the |
||
23 | supervisor of your neighbor may have means to read personal passwords of |
||
24 | your participants. (This fact is also true if you declare the other class as |
||
25 | your neighbor for participants.) Make sure that he will keep them secret. |
||
26 | <p> |
||
27 | In order to keep security level as high as possible, the principle is that |
||
28 | you declare neighborhood of another class only when it is really necessary. |
