The Book activity is not listed on my course gradebook? What could I be missing?
Grade for Book activity
Book is a "resource" and has not grade option. Consider moving your content over into a "lesson"
Re: Grade for Book activity
Thanks, John!
There are some challenges with the lesson activity I have run into, in the past. Specifically, it's a little wonky especially if there is nothing "graded" associated with a completion dependency..like a question etc.. I can always build a "Are you done?" type yes/no response question, but that another click, for the learner...unless, you have figured a method around that?
Re: Grade for Book activity
I realize this was...3 months ago...but...question: if you don't want to ask questions or have them do something in the book (other than read), what are you grading? And if reading is the key, even in lesson, they could skip the content and answer the question...
Re: Grade for Book activity
Maybe grading is not the word here, but for lack of another term, the company's management wants me to track their completion, so that is what I am reporting-how many folks read through the book activity. Does that help?
Re: Grade for Book activity
Activity Completion - set the condition =Require view.
But as most forum users would reply, how do you know if the comprehended the content? You need a quiz, to see if the "folks" read through the book activity. All students can click through each slide without reading any of them.
Kind Regards,

That's the direction I suspected you were going. You could always try the Games route, Book with Questions. It is a plugin that has a bunch of rather cool little games that link into quiz, glossary and Book. Using Book with questions you might be able to hide the book (available, not visible) and use the game where each question covers a section. Then you can prove they at least viewed every page if you have a question on every page...that might be a lot though.
Maybe that's just me, when I create books...well, they're BOOKS. Like Gone with the Wind size books (>1000 pages). Gone with the Wind is shorter than some of my books, to be honest.
But I agree with @Shirley...require view. I think maybe book can require view of all pages? But that still doesn't indicate they read it. Maybe add a compulsory "I agree that I read this information in its totality and I will..." statement they have to accept to get credit for completion. My old employer had an IT Security course for years that did that--there were three policies and they had to agree to follow the policies and acknowledge their responsibilities before they got credit. If they didn't get credit, they could lose their network access and be fired. A couple people tried the "I don't agree" option and...well, it didn't go so well for them.
