About Reports
Reports are a useful way for you to track your students' progress through your course. You are able to generate reports that track which Moodle activities and resources your students have viewed or list what activities need to be completed.
...
This will take you to the Course Administration page. Look for the section labeled Reports. From here, you can choose to view Logs, Live logs, Activity Reports, Course participation, or Student consent.
Reports
Logs
Moodle logs course activity for all course participants. You can generate a report based on a number or variables chosen from the Log pull-down menus:
...
- While you can see when a student viewed a resource, such as a page or book, you cannot tell if they actually read or engaged with the material.
- Logs can be useful if a student is not participating in the course (for example, not posting to a forum) and you want to see if that student has visited the course site.
- Course logs are kept for a limited time, so you may not be able to check student activity for the entire run of the course.
Live logs
Clicking on Live logs shows course activity as it's happening, updated every 60 seconds.
Activity Report
If you want to see how often the various course activities have been accessed by all course participants, then use the Activity report.

A Course Participation report for a particular activity can be generated. Choose from a number of variables:

Individual activity reports generate various reports on a single course participant.

Today's Logs
Today's logs shows student activity in the current day. Below the chart, but not shown here, will be a detailed listing of each hit on the course site.
All Logs

Outline Report

Activity & Course Completion
If Course completion and Activity completion have been enabled in your course then you will be able to generate these reports, as well.
