How to conditional release restricted content to your students in Moodle?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
To conditional release restricted content to your students in Moodle, please follow the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After ‘Activity completion’ has been enabled for a section, resource or activity, It is then possible to restrict access to the following section, activity or resource based on the completion of the latter (or any other selected section). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you are within the settings of the required section, please navigate to the \u2018Restrict access\u2019 and set the conditions based on \u2018Activity completion\u2019, as exemplified in the screenshot below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note: We recommend setting up activity completion for all prior activities or resources if they are not optional. If the restriction is based solely on the completion of the just the previous activity or resource, then students can skip others and only complete that one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a great place to take a second look at the restriction(s), to make sure it is set as accurately as you intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
