If you have a module with the requirement in which an item is set to be “marked as done”can the teacher edit the content in that item that has already been marked as done by a student? Will the student need to mark it as done again if the teacher edits it or will their initial selection of the “marked as done” button remain selected? (e.g., editing typos in text or other content in the module item that is already marked as done)
Hi @JeffreyBurleson,
It appears to me that once the student marks as done, that is permanent for that specific content item. Even if you edit the item content significantly, there doesn't seem to be a way to unmark it as done (f that's what you wanted). I'd say if there are major changes, it may be better to create a whole new page and add it to the module rather than edit existing things students may have already completed.
Hope this helps a bit!

Hi all, When uploading a SCORM package and outputting as an assignment, full screen works within the package. However when outputted as a page, it doesn't. Anyone found a getaround that isn't "just use the assignment option??"

I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
