Activity completion can be beneficial to both instructors and students. Students can see what is needed to complete an activity, while instructors have the capability to track student progress by viewing the Activity Completion report.
Configuring Activity Completion
- Enable Edit mode in the top right corner
- Go an activity's settings using one of the following methods:
- Create a new activity
- Click the menu icon (⋮) next to the activity title and choose Edit settings
- Click the activity title, then click Settings in the navigation bar under the activity title.
- From Settings, scroll all the way down and click Activity completion. Change completion tracking from Do not indicate activity completion to one of the following:
- Students can manually mark the activity as completed
- Show activity as complete when conditions are met
- You can set conditions by checking any of the boxes next to Require view and Require grade
- Adjust any dropdown or numbered text boxes as needed (only available for some activity types, eg. Forum or Quiz)
- After you have chosen all the conditions you would like to apply, click Save and return to course or Save and display
View the Activity Completion Report
- Click Reports on the top of your Moodle course page
- Choose Activity completion from the pop-up menu
A table containing all course participants and all activities that have completion enabled will appear. If an activity has been completed by a student, a check mark will be displayed in their row under the activity name.
Note: For quizzes that require a passing grade to be marked as complete, a green check indicates a passing grade and a red check indicates a non-passing grade.
