Completion Tick Boxes Activity Completion

Completion Tracking and Conditional Access TCCSA PD Team Note: The moodle administrator for your site must first enable these features before users will be able to view them in their course settings. Completion tick boxes This feature allows users to place a tick next to a resource or activity to indicate when an activity is complete. 1. From the Settings block click Edit settings 2. In the Student progress section, Enable Completion tracking. Also place a tick in the box so completion tracking begins on enrolment. • If a dotted tick is shown, you can click it to tick the box when you think you have completed the activity. (Clicking it again removes the tick if you change your mind.) The tick is optional and is simply a way of tracking your progress through the course. • If a blank tick box is shown, a tick will appear automatically when you have completed the activity according to conditions set by the teacher for that resource/activity. • • Note: resources & activities posted before student progress is enabled will not automatically have tick boxes. Edit the resource or activity and change the ‘Activity completion’ setting to enable this feature. Also, ticks will only appear once the course main page has been refreshed. Activity Completion By default, when student progress is enabled, completion tracking will be set so students can manually mark the activity as completed. Any resource/activity with this setting will receive a tick mark next to the title in the course. (as shown above) When Completion tracking is set to ‘Show activity as complete when conditions are met’ no tick mark will appear next to the title in the course. (as shown above) Note: Checking the ‘Require view’ tick box is the simplest condition to meet. Additional conditions can be found in the Completion tracking section of the Settings block. Moodle 2.0 1/11/11 Completion Tracking and Conditional Access TCCSA PD Team Completion Tracking (course) When a course has student progress enabled and set activity completion, users can also control course completion status. Completion Tracking works in hand with the ‘Course completion status’ block, which should be added to the course main page. 3. Click Completion tracking from the Settings block. 4. Control how completion tracking operates by adjusting the settings. Manual self completion allows students to mark their own course completion status. The ‘Self completion’ block must be added to the course main page by the teacher so students can do this. Manual completion by teacher allows a teacher to mark students’ course completion status. 5. Select at least one of the requirement options such as Activities Completed, Date, Duration after enrolment or Grade. Any single option or combination of options can be chosen as conditions for course completion. Note: Choosing Activities completed can only be chosen if resources have been posted. 6. Click Save changes if setting conditions. Moodle 2.0 1/11/11 Completion Tracking and Conditional Access TCCSA PD Team Course Pre-requisite (an option at the top of completion tracking settings) When there is more than one class in a series, teachers can set conditions so earlier classes must be marked complete before later courses can be marked complete. Note: This condition does not limit access to course materials. To the right are two examples. The second example lists a course the teacher can select. Students would have to complete this course before completing the next course. Adding the Self Completion Block If manual self completion is enabled, the teacher must add the ‘Self completion’ block to the course main page. This will allow students to decide when they have completed a course. 1. From the course main page, with editing on, click the drop down arrow in the ‘Add a block’. 2. Choose Self completion. Students will see ‘Complete Course…’ in the block. When clicked, they can click Yes to confirm self completion. Ideally, this would only be done at the end of a course. Adding the Course Completion Block This enables students to view their progress in a course. This block is helpful if manual completion is marked by a teacher, or if required criteria is set for the course. such as a required grade to complete, or set number of activities are completed. 3. From the course main page, with editing on, click the drop down arrow in the ‘Add a block’. 4. Choose the Course completion status block. Teachers will see View course report. Students will see their status related to the conditions set by the teacher. Note: A student will not see their status change immediately. This information is refreshed on the server every five minutes. Students may have to refresh their web page to see updated information.
