Marking Lessons as Complete

Hi,

So I just installed LearnPress with the eduma theme and I’m in love with the ease of the design and how much it models other moocs with simple design and easy ability to chunk information for my middle school students.

Unfortunately, we’ve run into two majors problems. One issue that I’m encountering frequently is that a number of my students are marking complete for when they finish a lesson, but the yellow check mark does not display next to completed lessons, making it difficult for them to keep track of when they finished a lesson and they’ll end up skipping too far ahead.

Also, I’m finding that the quizzes don’t have an option to force an answer. My students are either leaving questions blank or they are encountering system errors because several of my students reported that they answered the question but they were marked incorrect. If they were forced to answer the question, then it would at least remind them to fill in an answer again before submitting their quiz.

Also, is there an option for open ended responses I can grade later? I teach reading and writing and I would much rather give my students options to write open ended responses that I could manually grade than limit it to multiple choice quizzes. This would allow me to embed more course content into our lms if I was given the option to do open ended quizzes.

Thanks for your help!
