Mark a module as complete - Staff Guide
You can choose to set your module as Complete when it has ended, to provide a visual indication that it has finished and to prevent further changes from being made. When a module is set to Complete you will no longer be able to make changes to it. Students will still be able to access the module, but they will not be able to participate in any interactive elements (e.g. they will not be able to reply to discussions or submit assignments).
If you mark a module as Complete, you will no longer be able to upload a file to the Gradebook. This action can be undone easily, should you set a module to Complete in error. You can also make a module marked as Complete, Unavailable or Available at a later date. See Undo a module marked as Complete for further guidance.
