Video Tracker is a video-based learning activity in Moodle that tracks how much of a video learners actually watch and records their progress automatically.

Video Tracker ensures that:

• Expectations are clear
• Progress is measured fairly
• Completion reflects real engagement

This creates a more transparent and consistent learning experience.

Progress is tracked based on actual viewing time. As the video plays, the progress updates automatically in the background.

You don’t need to click any buttons or manually mark the activity as complete.

Each Video Tracker activity defines a minimum watch percentage (for example, 80% or 90%).

Once learner reach that percentage, the activity is marked as complete.

The exact requirement is shown within the activity.

This depends on how Video Tracker is configured:

• In some courses, skipping forward or backward is allowed
• In others, skipping may be limited to ensure full viewing

In all cases, completion is based on time watched, not on jumping to the end.

Learners can pause the video at any time.

When they return, Video Tracker will resume playback from where they left off.

This allows learners to learn at their own pace without losing progress.

No. You can watch the video across multiple sessions.

Your progress is saved automatically each time.

Once you reach the required viewing percentage:

• The activity is marked as completed automatically
• Completion is reflected in your course progress

There is no need for manual confirmation.

Video Tracker is designed to ensure fair and consistent completion.

Completion is granted only when the required portion of the video has actually been watched.

This protects learners who genuinely engage with the content.

In many courses, completing a video:

• Unlocks the next activity (quiz, assignment, or module)
• Moves you forward in the learning path
• Contributes to course or certification completion

The next step becomes available automatically.

Yes. When you complete a video, your progress and completion status are recorded accurately.

This ensures your learning effort is properly recognized within the course.

Yes — positively. Video Tracker:

• Reduces uncertainty
• Removes manual steps
• Creates a smoother learning flow

Tracking happens quietly in the background so you can focus on learning.
