You can require that students complete specific items in your module to “complete” the module, or require that students complete specific items in the module in a set order. To do so:

Select the three dots to the right of the module and select “Edit.”

A Canvas module’s options dropdown menu, with Edit highlighted.

Select “+ Requirement.”

Canvas module settings, +” Requirement” button visible under the Requirements header

Choose whether students must complete All or One of the requirements you set. If you choose All, you can check the box to require that students move through requirements in sequential order.

'Requirements' settings in a learning management system. The 'Complete all' option is selected, indicating that students must complete all requirements. Below, there is a checkbox for 'Students must move through requirements in sequential order,' which is unchecked. Another option, 'Complete one,' is unselected. Under 'Content,' an item labeled 'M1: Overview & Objectives' is listed with a dropdown set to 'View the item.' A trash can icon appears to the right of the item, and a '+ Requirement' button is at the bottom.

Select “+ Requirement” to add more requirements, and select the trash can icon to remove them. Use the dropdown menus to choose the item and choose how completion is tracked - viewing the item, marking the item as done, submitting, etc.
