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?
'Most participatory courses (posts/views)'
Participation ratio = posts / views
- in other words the number of posts divided by the number of views
'Most participatory courses (enrolments)'
Participation ratio = active users / users enrolled
Weeks periods
- the Users column is the average of the total number of enrolled users each day during the last N weeks. - the Active users column is an average of the active enrolled users each day during the period.
Years periods
- the Users column is the average of the total number of enrolled users each month during the last N years. - the Active users column is an average of the active enrolled users each month during the same period.
Active users are users with activity in the time period specified.

When a user accesses a resource or activity, these actions are usually captured in the Moodle site database, ready for counting when a Course Overview Report is run. However, some additional plugins do not have the code necessary to register a View or Post action, and so such activities are not captured.
