Hot Question

This plugin will help teachers to collect entries/posts from users in or out of a classroom.
NOTE: 20251101 I have finally managed to get a Moode 5.1+ test site up and running and can verify that HotQuestion v4.2.5 works in it, as expected.
The first Moodle activity for a physical classroom. The idea comes from Purdue University’s hotseat.
Some possible uses:
Users can make posts in “real” time during a face-to-face class/lecture/meeting.
Users can make posts 24/7 in a Hot Question activity.
Can be used as a “Suggestion Box” with labels changed to reflect the activity is for suggestions.
Can  be used for user analysis of any kind of data placed in the description.
Can  be used for user analysis of a video placed in the description.
Can be used for quick polls.
Can be used for classroom auctions.
Inside or outside a classroom, users can post into this activity from any device which can access the Moodle site. Users can also apply Heat, (vote) on other users posts, so that the hottest post will be popped up to the top of the list. Teachers can set a priority, either positive or negative, on selected posts, which overrides the Heat. Teachers can also control visibility of user entries, with an approval setting for each individual entry.
General capabilities:
Everyone can set a preference for view/hide unapproved questions.
Site admin, teacher, or manager can allow questions to still be seen and commented on, after a Hot Question activity is closed.
Site admin, teacher, or manager can show or hide author names from students, but still see all author names, themselves.
Site admin, teacher, or manager can show or hide Priority or Heat columns depending on need.
Site admin, teacher, or manager can change the words used for the column labels.
Site admin, teacher, or manager can delete individual questions.
Site admin, teacher, or manager can hide individual questions.
