 Course Analytics 

Analytics evaluate individual components of a course and evaluate student performance. Course Analytics takes a three-pronged approach to creating substantive data for Canvas users:

  • Justification focuses on system reports and how the system is being used.
  • Intervention looks to predict at-risk students and how to meet their needs.
  • Learning focuses on learning outcomes, the effectiveness of the teaching style, and the division of time between students achieving competence and those falling behind.
