Requirements in unlocked modules

[netta_huebscher]

I run a distance course in basic music theory, in which there are only instructional animated videos followed by a series of practice quizzes, divided to progressive modules. I did set prerequisites on modules to make sure that the students only progress to the next when the previous one is completed. What I only realized 2 days after the course opened was, that I should also add requirements within every module in order to clarify when a module is actually "complete" - in my case, it suffices that they view the pages and submit the quizzes, regardless of their grade. 

So I added the requirements and decided not to lock the modules, so as not to "punish" students for my own mistake by forcing those who already submitted quizzes to submit them again. But I'm still not sure what will happen with students who viewed quizzes without submitting them prior to my change of requirements. Will it be visible to them in some way that they need to go back and submit missing quizzes in order to proceed with the course? Or will canvas consider them to have already met the requirements of that incomplete module, (because there weren't any when they did it)?

Please advise!

Hello  @netta_huebscher ...

I am reviewing older questions here in the Canvas Community, and I stumbled upon your question.  While I'm not sure that I really have an answer for you, I wanted to check in with you because I saw that you've not received any responses since you first posted on September 5, 2019.  Have you been able to find any solutions on your own that you'd be willing to share back here in this topic?  Or, are you still looking for some help with this question?  Either way, we would like to hear back from you.  For the time being, I am going to mark your question as "Assumed Answered" ... not because we've been able to find a solution for you ... but more because we've not heard back from you and because there hasn't been any new activity in this topic for over five months.  However, that will not prevent you or others from posting additional replies below.  I hope that's okay with you, Netta.  Looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

Hi!

No, I never got an answer for that question. I sort of moved on, but it would still help me to understand that issue more for the future. Any clue?

Thanks

Hi  @netta_huebscher  

Your students will see a missing label ( a dash where the score should be) in their Grade Report.  They can learn more at How do I use the icons and colors in the Grades page? 

However, you can easily go into the gradebook and perform a "Message Students who.............." action to remind them to complete. Learn more at https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-16553-4152813641
