			Activity Locking is a type of condition activity in Moodle, literally the conditions a student must meet to enter a specific activity in '''a single course'''. There have been several versions of this kind of non-standard module. The development map indicates a module with similar features will be a standard part of 2.0.

			Towards that goal, this page has been moved to the development area of MoodleDocs in September 2007.

	==Overview of Activity Locking==		==Overview of Activity Locking==
	~~Activity Locking is~~ a ~~type~~ of ~~conditional~~ activity in ~~Moodle~~. It is not part of the standard Moodle and all flavors requires sepecial installation. Various flavors can be found at the [https://docs.moodle.org/en/Activity_Locking Activity Locking MoodleDoc page].		The basic concept locks a student out of a specific activity until the student meets a score, a time or a view criterion matrix for one or more specific activities or resources in a course. In some versions, there are options to hide the locked activity, or hide a complete section of activities and resources. Other options include showing a progress icon next to completed activities. Some specialized conditional activities locks are based on an overall course criterion matrix.

	~~Please be patient~~, there are ~~several versions~~ of ~~Activity Locking being developed that have different goals~~ and ~~approaches~~. ~~These examples happen~~ to ~~come from an Activity Locking 2~~.~~1 flavored branch developed for Moodle version 1.6, sometimes called '''ActivityLockingWithHide-1.6''' Other versions may also appear~~ on ~~this page. Finally (there really is never any finally), I am most familar with Lesson Activities, so my initial screen shots will concern this kind of activity~~. ~~I am trying to keep the new Moodle teacher in mind as I write. --[[User:chris collman 2\|chris collman 2]] 05:09, 27 June 2006 (WST)~~

			Various flavors can be found at the [https://docs.moodle.org/en/Activity_Locking Activity Locking MoodleDoc page]. Please be patient, prior to Moodle 2.0, there are several versions of Activity Locking that have different goals and approaches. The examples below come from an Activity Locking 2.1 flavored branch developed for Moodle version 1.6, sometimes called '''ActivityLockingWithHide-1.6'''
