Using Reports

Activity reports can be used to track learner progress and content usage in a course. Reports can be accessed from the course navigation menu at the top of the course page by clicking Reports. These reports allow instructors to view course Logs, Live Logs, Activity report, Course participation and Activity completion.
Logs
Using Logs can help create reports with detailed information about course participants and content. It is possible to view the pages a learner accessed, the time and date they accessed them, the IP address from which they accessed the course, and their actions, such as create, view, update and delete.
Note: The IP address link provides an estimate of the learner's location.
The logs can be viewed directly on the page or downloaded in text, PDF, HTML, JSON, ODS, CSV or Excel format.
To generate a log, select any combination of group, participant, date, activity, actions, sources or events. When you are ready to display or download the report, click the Get these logs button.
The Logs Report page contains active links to a learner's profile page or a particular page that the learner was viewing.
Live Logs
The Live Logs report displays a page with current activity for all users, showing the pages learners accessed, the date and time of access, the IP address used, and their actions (for example: view, add, update, and delete).
Activity Report
An Activity report displays all activity in the course, sorted by topic in sequential order. Each item is shown with its type and name. Teachers can filter the Activity Report by date range by clicking on Filter and enabling the From and To date fields.
The report includes a list of activities, the number of views, and the last access date.
Course Participation
Available filters include:
- Activity module: Select an activity or resource. All activities and resources in a course are listed here.
- Look back: Determines how far back the participation report covers.
- Show only: Filters users by a specific role.
- Show actions: Select the type of actions to display. Choose All actions for a complete report, or filter by View or Post.
Sending Reminders to Learners to Complete Online Activities
One useful feature of the Course participation report is that it allows messages to be sent to learners who have not completed an activity. To do this:
1. In the Course navigation menu, select the Reports option.
2. Click on the Course Participation link.
3. Select an Activity and set other desired filters.
4. Click the Go button to see a list of participants and their activity.
5. Click the Select all 'No' button below the list of learners.
Checkboxes are selected for all learners where No appears in the All actions column.
6. Choose Send a message in the With selected users... drop-down menu.
A pop-up window appears where the teacher composes a message and sends it to the selected participants.
The message will be sent using the internal Moodle messaging system. If learners have their messaging preference set to receive email messages when they are offline, they may also receive the message by email.
Activity Completion
To manually change the completion state, the teacher can check the box and click Save changes in the Confirm pop-up.
The selected activities for each student can be checked one activity at a time.
Teachers can then save the Activity completion table to their computers in either spreadsheet or Excel-compatible formats.
