Module completion is a reporting feature that shows if a module has been completed. It can show the progress a student is making towards finishing the course according to specific criteria and can be used in conjunction with Activity completion.

Module completion can can be automatic or manual. Automatic completion is based on specified criteria such as module grade. Manual completion can be recorded by Programme Administrators, Lecturers & Teaching Assistants in the completion report or (if enabled) by students in the Self Completion block.

Module completion is enabled by default on all new modules.

To configure Module completion:

1. From the module page, select More from the contextual navigation menu.
2. Select Module completion.
3. On the Edit module completion settings page, scroll down to the required settings box. (Settings explained in the Settings options below)
4. Select Save changes when done.

• General: This setting allows you to indicate if all, or any, of the below conditions have to met in order to achieve course completion.
• Condition Activity Completion: This setting is used to indicate which activities will contribute to course completion. You should also indicate if all selected activities have to be completed, or just any of the selected should be completed, using the dropdown box against Condition requires.
• Condition: Completion of other modules: If you have course completion setup for another module, then you can require that students also complete that module before your current module is considered complete.
• Condition: Date: If you select the Enable box you can then set a date, after which the course will be declared complete
• Condition: Enrolment duration: If you select the Enable box you can then choose a number of days after enrolment upon which the course will be marked complete.
• Condition: Unenrolment: If you select the Enable box then the student's course will be complete once they have unenrolled.
• Condition: Module Grade: If you select the Enable box you can set a passing grade for the course.
• Condition: Manual self completion: If you enable this, then students can mark the course as complete themselves. You must also add the Self completion block as students need this to manually mark the course as complete.
• Condition: Manual completion by others: This setting allows users with selected roles to mark the course as complete. If used, select next to the role that can mark the course as complete. The roles listed (ie lecturer, etc) are ones for which the capability Mark users as complete in course completion is allowed.
  • Additionally, select an option against the Condition requires setting
  • Select ALL selected roles to mark when the condition is met when every role that is marked here must put a check mark in the course completion report in order for the students' course to be marked complete.
  • Select ANY selected roles to mark when the condition is met when one or more of the roles that are marked here have put a check mark in the course completion report in order for the student's course to be marked complete. This is the recommended setting.
