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.
