Self Study modules can be used to track independent studying by users.  The module allows submissions forms to be constructed that include many question types including checkboxes, short/long answer questions, Likert Scales, and document uploads.  When the user has submitted their responses to the module's questions, they can be reviewed by a supervisor, instructor, or other user.  The reviewer can be required to submit feedback and has the option to pass the user or return their submissions to them for additional work.  Administrators can create Predetermined Responses for reviewers to use.  A user only receives credit for the module when their submission is approved.  You can run a Submission Report on any Self Study (or OJT) module to see user responses.
