Advanced Filtering Options:

1. Rather than creating a graph with only views and interactions, several basic actions/events are included in this dropdown and can be selected. Keep in mind that these actions are specific to each type of eClass activity, so be sure to adjust the activity filter accordingly. For example: if a series of quizzes are selected along with an assignment event, the graph results will be 0. Leave this filter blank (none selected) to see views and interactions.
2. If you’d like to view unique events (rather than total), select this checkbox. This option counts each student only once, irrespective of how many times they may have accessed a piece of content or performed a specific action. This feature can be used to identify how many total students have accessed a particular piece of content.
3. In addition to the standard bars, selecting an option other than “None” on the average filter will plot a second set of results alongside the first showing average event counts for different sub-groups of your students. It is possible to view average event counts for the top 15% of students in your class, the average across all students, or the average across the bottom 15% of students in your class - based on their scores in the course total column of your gradebook. If you do not use the gradebook in eClass or use a different column as the final grade, these results will not be accurate.
   

   Additional Information:

4. The y-axis for the graph is measured in the total number of occurrences of a particular action/event that is counted while processing the eClass event log.
5. The x-axis for the graph contains entries for each item selected in the activity filter. If no items are selected, a sensible default (visible in the sample) is shown to the user. As a user, you may select individual activities, entire sections (aggregates all activities in that section), or activity types (e.g., quizzes, assignments).
6. By default, “Views” and “Interactions” are shown for each selected activity. “Views” typically involve the student reading some sort of information, while “Interactions” involve a student submission or a student updating/changing content. Click the help bubbles while viewing the report to see a few examples of each.
7. Clicking this button will export the results to an excel spreadsheet.
8. Clicking this button will save a screenshot (in PNG) of the graph to your computer.

Mousing over a bar on the graph will display a tooltip indicating the exact number that is being displayed.

Anytime a graph displays an aggregated activity type (e.g., “All forums”), you are able to click on one of the bars and the graph will automatically be re-drawn (and the filter updated) with each forum in the course selected. You can narrow in on particular results in this fashion.
