New Analytics

New Analytics provides interactive graphs and tables that allow instructors and students to track data related to course grades, activity, and communication. Instructors can track student grades, submission status, weekly course activity, individual student participation, and online attendance. Instructors can also use New Analytics to message students based on their submission status or grade.

Data displays in interactive chart graphs or tables. You can also download the data.

Data is refreshed for published courses in the New Analytics dashboard every 24 hours. Report data may be delayed by 24 hours; however, Course Activity Report data may be delayed by 40 hours. Only active and completed student enrollments are included in data for New Analytics. Deleted or inactive user enrollments do not generate data.

Notes:

Currently, New Analytics is managed at the account and course levels through the New Course and User Analytics feature option. New Analytics will replace the current analytics feature at the course and user levels in a future release.
