You can bulk apply settings to ALL activities but your completion tracking options may be limited to none or manual.
Use this process for one type of activity/resource at a time for the most control and the best results.
Enter the course with completion tracking enabled.
Select the More option from the secondary navigation.
Select Course Completion.
From the drop-down menu below the secondary navigation, select the Bulk edit activity completion option.
Check off all the activities (or resources) where you want to apply a particular type of completion tracking.
Scroll to the top or bottom of the page and click the Edit button.
Define the desired completion tracking settings for these activities/resources.
You have 3 options for the Completion tracking setting:
-
- None – This option is best used for Text and Media Resources as well as activities and resources that are not a required/graded element of the course.
- Students must manually mark the activity as done – This option is best used for activities and resources that you want students to indicate when they have completed it.
- Add requirements – This option is best used for activities and resources that you want automatically marked completed when the complete a specific task (view, submit a file, earn a grade, etc…)
If you would like students to complete the activity or resource by a specific date you can enable and change the Set reminder in Timeline date. This won’t prevent students from accessing the activity or resource beyond that date but will post a reminder on the Timeline and Calendar located on the Dashboard.
NOTE: Setting this date in addition to a due date or close date can cause duplicate entries on the Timeline and Calendar.
Click the Save changes button.
Repeat Steps 4-7 as desired.
When you’re done with all the activities/resources, consider adding a Course Completion Status Block or Completion Progress Block so you and your students can track course progress.
