Report measures
What is Activity?
Activity = number of Views + number of Posts from users in the course, over the period of interest.
What's the difference between a View and a Post?
- "Views" are instances of a user accessing a Moodle resource or activity to "read" or download it.
- "Posts" are more active responses such as: submit a quiz, submit an assignment, respond to a discussion forum etc. Posts are not just discussion forum posts!
What is the Participation ratio?
For the report type 'Most participatory courses (posts/views)'
Participation ratio = posts / views
- in other words the number of posts divided by the number of views
For the report type 'Most participatory courses (enrolments)'
Participation ratio = active users / users enrolled
Active users are users with activity in the time period specified.
