The activity completion tracking in Moodle 2.0 lets students do this. (They get a tick box next to each think on the course page, so that they can tick them off as they do them. Some things, like a quiz, can be set to tick automatically.)
This sounds exactly what I wanted. Thanks! However, I have just started playing around with moodle with the intention of setting up lessons soon. I know moodle 2.0 is in development. Should and can I start using it now or wait until it is ready? If I don't can the change from moodle 1.9.7 or whatever to 2.0 be made easily?
Hi there Don't use Moodle 2.0 now - use 1.9.7 as it will last you for quite a while yet
