Explaining the Learners Progress Overview (LPO) in Figures

What are the “sections” in the LPO? 

The Learner Progress Overview reports metrics based on the number of subsections (labelled “Sections” currently) that contain any content that can award points, regardless of whether those subsections are part of the grading criteria. For example, a course with 4 graded subsections, 5 ungraded subsections that have practice problems and 2 subsections that contain only video would show up on the Learner Progress Overview as having 9 “Sections”.

  • Points: [Currently unclear. To be added soon…]
