Course completion in Eduframe

How to complete a course manually in Eduframe?

As an admin, you can mark a course enrolment as 'Passed' or 'Not passed'. Once a participant has met the requirements to pass a course, the admin can manually mark this student as passed. This can be done in the courses tab of a particular student or in the enrolments tab for a selected course, like in the below image:

Based on the result (Passed or Failed/Not passed), it is possible to award students with a certificate and/or credits automatically, if this is setup in settings. 

Here you can find for more information on how to configure outcomes in Eduframe settings. 

You can automatically email the certificate to students once it's awarded by enabling the certificate email in 'Settings' -> 'Email templates & Triggers' -> tab 'System'.

How to complete a course automatically based on Canvas module progress

If you configure the necessary settings, completing all modules in a synced Canvas course will automatically mark the student's Eduframe enrollment as 'Passed'.

Once the enrollment is marked as 'Passed', the participant can be awarded a certificate and/or credits, just as is the case for manually completing a course. Additionally, an email with the certificate can be sent automatically.

How to set up auto completion?

In order to start completing courses automatically, on the Eduframe side you do not need to do anything (besides linking Eduframe to Canvas). However, in Canvas a few steps need to be taken for this to work:

1. Set up the Data Stream in Canvas: 

1. As a Canvas Admin, navigate to Admin and select the Canvas root account. 

2. Then look for 'Data Services' in the sidemenu. 

3. Click on the '+ Add' button to create a new data stream. See image below.

   1. Fill in the fields as shown in the image below: 

   2. Name/Title: Course Completion Eduframe

   3. Delivery Method: HTTPS

   4. URL: Use your Eduframe URL here and add '/canvas/data_streams' at the end. For example: 'https://my-school.eduframe.nl/canvas/data_streams'. 

   5. Sign PayLoad: Should be checked

   6. Message Type: Canvas

   7. Application Type: Data Streaming

4. In the table, scroll down and look for 'Course'. Click on the arrow to open this.

5. Check the two checkboxes behind 'course_completed', as shown in the image below.

6. Click Save & Exit

2. Setting the module requirements for a course in Canvas

For each course in Canvas (that has been created via Eduframe) the result of a student will be automatically synchronized to Eduframe when the student completes all module requirements. 

1. To set up module requirements for a course, go to the course and select 'Modules'.

2. Then edit the module by clicking on the three dots next to the module and clicking 'edit'

3. Click on 'Add requirement to add a requirement for this module. 

4. Select the type of requirements as you like and confirm.

5. It is possible to add requirements for all or multiple modules within the course, by repeating steps 2-4.

Now, if a student completes all module requirements within this course, a course completed event will be sent to Eduframe and the result of the participant in this course will be marked as 'Passed' (with a delay of a few minutes).
