How the percentage is calculated
The percentage is calculated for the whole course, not for a single lesson. It is an average across all course videos, where each video weighs as much as it lasts. The result is rounded down to a whole number.- If all videos have the same length, you get a plain average. Ten videos watched at 10%, 20%, … 100% give 55%.
- If the lengths differ, long videos have more weight. A 60-minute video watched at 10% and a 5-minute video watched at 100% give 16%, not 55%.
- Videos the student has not opened yet count as 0%.
Which videos count
The calculation includes videos from published lessons of the course. These do not count:- videos in unpublished lessons and in lessons of unpublished modules;
- deleted videos and lessons;
- lessons turned off for all of the student’s groups in this course on the “Access to lessons” page. If the student is not in any group of the course, all published lessons count;
- videos with no duration set.

How it differs from progress in the student card
On the “Progress” tab of the student card, viewing is shown for each lesson, and inside a lesson for each video. The filter calculates one percentage for the whole course. So you cannot compare the card numbers and the filter value directly.Frequently asked questions
A student watched almost all videos but does not match the “from 100%” filter. Why?
A student watched almost all videos but does not match the “from 100%” filter. Why?
To get 100%, the student must watch every course video to the end. One unfinished or unopened video is enough to make the result less than 100%. The result is rounded down, so 99.9% becomes 99%.
A student watched most of the videos, but the percentage is low. Why?
A student watched most of the videos, but the percentage is low. Why?
Long videos weigh more than short ones. If the student skipped one long video, the result can be lower than after skipping several short ones.
Why can't I find the course students at any filter value?
Why can't I find the course students at any filter value?
The course has no videos that count. For example, there are no videos at all, lessons with videos are not published, or the videos have no duration set.
Do videos from lessons turned off for a group count?
Do videos from lessons turned off for a group count?
No, if the lesson is turned off in all of the student’s groups in this course. If the lesson is open in at least one of their groups, the video counts.
