Defining the Path: Using Completion Tracking and Restrict Access in Moodle
“Empower Your Students with Smarter Course Navigation!
Want to make sure your students stay on track and access the right resources at the right time? Join us for an interactive workshop where we’ll explore how Completion Tracking and Restrict Access can help streamline your course and enhance student engagement.
- Completion Tracking gives students and instructors clear visibility into progress, ensuring they know when activities or resources have been viewed or completed.
- Restrict Access enables instructors to set conditions—such as requiring task completion, limiting access to specific groups, or defining availability windows—to guide students step by step through course materials.
Whether you’re looking to improve organization, create a structured learning path, or simply boost student accountability, this workshop will provide the practical strategies you need to make your course more dynamic and effective.
