Article Summary

On each Item you add you can add Release Conditions. The following conditions are available:

  • Members or groups
  • Performance
  • Date.

This video will explain how to set it up.

Multiple performance criteria

You can set more than one performance criteria per content item.

For example:

  1. Students must complete coursework in a specific order and after they've demonstrated understanding. You want students to progress to the next item only after they score a B or above.
  2. Students must score 70 points or higher on a quiz to access the Chapter 1 Test.

To set additional performance criteria, such as a second threshold the student must meet, select Add additional performance criteria.

Grade visible to students in Gradebook when item is hidden

Note that instructors can set release conditions without concern of hiding grades. Regardless of the setting in "When will content appear?", students can see the grade. All other functionality of release conditions is unchanged.

Trouble shooting

If you're in a situation where you can't update a due date because of date/time release conditions, you can perform the following:

  1. Remove the release conditions on the item that needs a new due date. You can set the item to "Hidden from students" and this will remove/strip all date/time release conditions.
  2. After the release conditions are removed, change the due date.
  3. After the due date is changed, apply your desried release conditions or set the item to "visible to students".
