Meeting the baseline
The UCL E-Connected Learning Baseline suggests the following for Structure :
- 1.5 Guide students as to which task to complete next. This may include appropriate use of conditional release, so tasks are hidden until prerequisite tasks are completed, or until a certain date.
The Orientation category suggests that you:
- 2.2 Explain participation requirements:
- Identify which activities are compulsory and optional.
2.7 Students are sent a welcome message before the start of the module. Using the Moodle News forum ensures all students get an email. Include:
- A short overview of the course;
- A summary of expectations for online engagement.;
- How they can gain access to their course.;
- Explain the introductory activities to be completed and by when (e.g. posting to an introductions forum).;
- Link to the 'the UCL online learning orientation' Moodle Moodle course (for wholly online courses).
How do I set one up?
- Once course completion is enabled (see above), go to the administration block top course menu on your Moodle course homepage and click on More > Course completion.
- While most settings can be left with their default value, select the following options that you would like to enable:
- Under Condition: Activity completion select every activity to include as part of the completion status.
- Under Condition: Manual completion by others: select Tutor and Course Administrator to enable staff to mark activities as complete on behalf of a student.
- By default, enabling course completion will display the dates, times and completion requirements for any activities a student can manually mark. If you do not want to display this information to them, ensure Show activity completion conditions is set to No in your course settings.
- Click Save changes.
- With editing turned on, add the course completion block to the Moodle course homepage, so students (and their tutors) can see their progress.
