Setting Up and Using Completion Tracking

Margarita Berezyanskaya

Last Update há um mês

The completion tracking feature adds check boxes next to activities and resources on the main course pages. These check boxes allow a learner to quickly see which activities he/she has and hasn't completed. Instructors can decide if they prefer the check boxes to be selected manually by learners or checked automatically by Moodle after a learner meets the completion requirement for that item, e.g. a score, viewing it, etc. Completion tracking can be used by instructors wishing to use the conditional release of activities.

Default Activity Completion

The Default activity completion section allows teachers to choose the type of activities or resources that students can manually mark as complete.



These settings apply to all Moodle activity types, not only to a particular activity or learning object in your course. To edit any of the settings, click Edit.


Here you can modify the actions you would like to edit for all activities of a certain type across your course.



  • Completion tracking allows students to manually use the check box to track the completion of the activity.
  • Require view is not a condition. This criterion is especially useful for URLs, links to files, links to directions, etc.
  • Require grade: Any grade will complete the activity. If a specific score is required, enable the Required minimum score setting.
  • Require status is a SCORM-related setting. Teachers can choose from the available options.
  • Expect completed on is used to set the expected completion date.


Once you finish editing these settings, click Save changes.

Bulk Edit Activity Completion

 


The Bulk edit activity completion tab is similar to the previous section in that you can apply bulk settings to several activities at once. The difference is that these settings do not apply to general Moodle modules, but rather to the specific activities you have designed for your own course.


1. Select all or any of the activities that you need to edit and click on the Edit button.


The settings appear as follows.



2. Change the settings and click on Save changes.
