Moodle Checklist and Moodle Course Roadmap
Checklists aren't just for groceries and roadmaps aren't just for road trips!
If your students ever feel overwhelmed or unsure where to start, Moodle has two tools that can make a big impact on their organization, motivation and progress tracking: Moodle Checklist and Moodle Course Roadmap.
Moodle Checklist
Perfect for modules, assignments, or multi-step projects, the Checklist activity helps students track required tasks and even add their own depending on instructor settings. It’s quick and easy to set up—especially useful for instructors working section-by-section rather than mapping the whole course at once. Activities can be automatically checked off for students if you set up activity completion. Learn more in our Teaching Resources article: Use Moodle Checklists to Help Students Get Organized and Track Progress.
Moodle Course Roadmap
The Course Roadmap activity provides a visual “big picture” of your course, helping students see progress across phases and modules of the course. It takes more planning and configuration than the Moodle Checklist, but is powerful for whole-course organization and long-term motivation. Learn more in our Teaching Resources Article: Moodle Course Roadmap Overview.
Tips for Both Tools
- Set up Activity Completion first so students can automatically track their progress.
- Build before the semester starts to avoid mid-course changes and confusion – particularly important for the Moodle Roadmap.
- Use Checklist for module-level tracking and Roadmap for full-course guidance.
