Complete By*
You can specify the time before which they expect the activity to be completed by the participant. Specifying this field will place the activity in the correct chronological order on the action plan.
You can choose to specify the complete by time by month, week, day or date. You can also choose to not set any due date.
If you choose a date, the activity must be completed before that date, otherwise the component will move to an "overdue" status.
If you specify a month, the activity must be completed within those many months from the start date of the program. For example, if you enter 1, the activity must be completed within 1 month from the start of the program.
If you specify a week, the activity must be completed within those many weeks from the start date of the program. For example, if you enter 1, the activity must be completed within 1 week from the start of the program.
If you specify a day, the activity must be completed within those many days from the start date of the program. For example, if you enter 10, the activity must be completed within 10 days from the start of the program.
Submitting evidence does not complete an activity. When evidence is submitted, the activity status changes to Evidence Submitted until a tutor marks it. The status changes to Completed only when all required evidence has been marked and accepted, or, if Tutor decides is selected, when the tutor completes the activity.
Until the status is Completed, the activity shows as overdue from 00:00 on its Complete by date, even if evidence has been submitted.
