The Completion Progress block shows students their activity completion tasks status across the module.
It is a useful time management tool allowing students to track past and upcoming tasks from the module homepage. Staff can also compare the progress of students throughout the module and can use the tool to quickly determine who is engaged or who may need additional support.
The block can describe what activities have been submitted, marked, or require completion:
Yellow: Submitted but not completed (e.g., if you have submitted a quiz but not recieved a passing grade)
Green: Completed (e.g., any activity completed by the student)
Red: Not-completed (e.g., any activity not completed before the expected deadline)
Blue: Future not-completed (e.g., any future activity before the deadline not yet completed by the student)
Staff and students can interact with the progress bar:
- Hover the mouse over a bar to see details of the task such as the requirements and deadline
- Click on a bar to open the activity/resource
Staff can add 1 or more completion progress blocks into the blocks drawer on the right of the course. Each block can be set up to show all or a selected group of activity completion tasks.
The Completion Progress block will only be tracking progress if Completion tracking is enabled in the module. To enable Completion tracking, go to Course Administration > Edit settings > Completion tracking > Enable completion tracking.
