Purpose
Provides an overview of Bookshelf engagement at an institutional and course level. Gain insights to the number of courses, students, average time spent and percent of engaged students.
Dashboard Notes
- The access filter will automatically filter the report to only show courses and institutions related to the system user.
- Calculations related to Avg. Session Length and Engagement have been corrected. The original calculation (from the legacy Instructor Dashboard) was not rolling up the data accurately in lieu of the measure.
- The new calculation addresses that a student may be present in multiple courses. Therefore, the Avg. Session Length and % of Engaged Students are calculated by student and course, so the same student in two courses is represented as two separate records in the calculations to provide a more accurate picture of the student engagement.
