Step 13. Activity Completion allows you to set up different completion requirements
- Completion Tracking
Options |
Description |
Do not indicate activity completion |
This option will not show any checkbox that will indicate Activity completion |

- Require View: When this option is turned on, students have to view the activity in order to complete it. You should usually not turn on the 'view' condition if you have other requirements - this makes extra work for the server and it's unlikely that a student could meet any other conditions without viewing the activity.
