    How do I view account analytics?

    You can view account Analytics from your Account Courses page. Account Analytics show all analytics in your account. You can also view analytics as part of the account Statistics page.

    If you need to view account analytics on a more granular level, You can open the course and view analytics for that course.

    Notes:

    • Account analytics also includes analytics enabled at the sub-account level.
    • Currently, analytics does not measure activity on mobile devices.
  • Once you have filtered student enrollments or sections in your Gradebook, you can sort the Gradebook columns by student name, secondary id, total grade, individual assignment, assignment group (if you have assignment groups set up), and assignment due date. You can also resize and rearrange the columns in the Gradebook.

    Note: Gradebook columns are persistent, meaning the columns will stay in the order they are arranged.
