Quick overview

Activity completion allows the lecturer to set completion criteria for a specific activity or resource. A tick appears against the item when the student meets the criteria. The criterion might be viewing, receiving a certain score or a student marking it as complete. Through Activity Completion staff and students can track learner progress. Activities might be shown to be 'completed' automatically e.g. when a quiz is submitted, or manually marked as completed by the Student. Used together with restrict access, you can explore opportunities for self-directed learning.

titleSelf Directed Learning allows lecturers to...
  • create structured routes through the materials in their modules,

  • track students' progress through activities and resources,

  • create personalised learning by providing different resources and activities based on individual students' achievements. 

Timed Release

Timed Release allows documents or activities on Moodle to be available to students from or to a set date.  This feature is useful to guide students to read articles at a set point in their course or to ask them to complete a piece of assessment at a particular time, e.g. an in-class multiple-choice test.

Grade Conditions

Lecturers can guide students to different resources based on each student's existing knowledge, thereby personalising each student's route through the module based on their achievement.

For example, a mid-term formative quiz has been set. Those students who achieve more than 70% in the quiz will get access to Report 1. Those who achieve less than 70% will be given access to a follow-up presentation.

Activity Completion

Activities can be set to be manually marked as complete by students or Moodle will automatically mark them as complete when conditions are met.

For example, an Assignment is hidden from students until all three of the activities have been marked by the students as complete. The Week 3 Assignment will automatically be marked as complete by Moodle when the assignment has been submitted.

Student Self Completion

This is beneficial to students as they can keep track of their own progress through a module. Students are able to mark work as complete as they move through the module.
