The learning environment allows you to define default activity completion criteria. Once set, any activity added to a course will automatically inherit these defaults. This helps prevent instructors from inadvertently omitting completion criteria—a common cause of the system being unable to issue learning records and certificates of completion. This feature was introduced specifically to address this frequent source of errors.
Step-by-step Guide
To define default activity completion criteria:
-
Go to Site Administration > Courses > Default settings > Default activity completion
-
Expand each activity and set your preferred defaults
-
Click on “Save changes”, which is available in each activity.
Important Notes
-
Changing the default activity completion criteria does not affect existing activities; it only applies to activities added going forward.
-
Dual Code has already configured the most commonly used criteria, so reviewing every setting is optional unless you wish to customize them.
