The Dashboard blocks is a block accessory useful to build complete data reporting reports within a course, using dashboard instances as report elements to process one single query in moodle database and display results.

Query results will be a starting dataset that can be cached, sorted, filtered, and finally plotted in raw data tables or in graphs, and exported to files.

Originally design for use in course format “page” (or “flexipage”), it provides the choice of plotting results in the block body or in a separate full screen page. From Moodle 3.1 and ahead, some themes provides possibility to layout blocks in a more flexible way, and thus assemble dashboard block instances in a meaningful organization.
