The Common Course Module Properties group is found on all modules that you create/edit within a course. Be aware that certain modules only have a few of these properties while other modules may have nearly all of the properties.

Lets look at each of the options found under Common Course Module Properties in detail:

Option	Description
Copy Module	The copy module feature copys the current module and creates a duplicate of it inside the course.
Delete Module	The module feature is only enabled if the course does not have any existing enrollments. If the course has existing enrollments then the module can not ever be deleted because it is in use by learners/students/users.
Module Name	The name the module will have inside the course.
Module Description	A description for the module.
Completion Rule	There are three options: Must Complete Course Module - Means the module is a requirement for the course and must be completed. Course Module is Optional - Means the module is optional for the course and does not have to be completed. Must Meet Course Module Minimum Passing Score - This option works hand in hand with the "Minimum Passing Score" option found under Advanced SCORM Settings. Selecting this option means the module will only complete successfully if the Minimum Passing Score is met when the student interacts with the module.
Module Access By Students	There are five options as follows: This Module is available to students This Module is NOT visible to students This Module is locked until X days after the student's course registration date (note you will be prompted to enter the number of days for the delay) This Module is locked until X days after the previous module was completed/passed by the student (note you will be prompted to enter the number of days for the delay) This Module is available between a fixed start and end date (note you will be prompted to enter the start and end date)
Module Due Date:	The Due Date for this module.
Minimum Required Minutes:	Use this option to establish the minimum number of minutes the user must play the module before the module will complete. The total minutes a user plays the module are accumulated even if the user exits and re-enters the module multiple times.
Minimum Passing Score:	The minimum score required to complete the module.
Percentage this module counts towards the course score:	This is the weight of this modules score on the overall score of the course.
Session Timeout Setting:	Certain modules allow setting a module specific Session Timeout value. The module either uses the System setting or it uses the one you define here.
Automatically Load Next Module	Checking this option tells the course player to automatically load the next module when this module completes.
Send Notification when this Module is Completed	Checking this option tells the system to send the "Course Module Completed" Automated Notification. IMPORTANT - The notification must be configured before this feature will function. See Manage Automated Notifications to learn more.
This Module is Locked Until Previous Module(s) are Completed	Checking this option tells the course player that this module CAN NOT be opened until all previous modules have completed.
This Module can be Shared in Other Courses	Checking this option marks the module as a Shared Module. See the Shared Modules section of this guide to learn more.
