Class Progress

Introduction:

The Class Progress tool in Brightspace is a valuable resource for instructors to monitor student progress in a course. It allows you to track various aspects of student performance, such as content completion, assignment submissions, quiz scores, and participation in discussions. By using this tool, you can identify at-risk students, personalize instruction, and generate detailed reports to assess course effectiveness.

Accessing the Class Progress Tool

1. From your course navbar, select Class Progress.
2. Click on Class Progress.
3. Review any student progress. Once you access a particular student, you can view grades, content, assignments, quizzes, course access, etc.

Visual tour of the Class Progress Tool

1. You can filter class participants based on membership in groups or sections.
2. Use the Class Progress navbar to sort the order in which users appear in the chart. By default, the following performance indicators appear from left to right in the navbar: Content Completed, Objectives, Logins, and Grades. A maximum of 4 performance indicators can display at any time on the Class Progress page. Available indicators include: Content Completed, Objectives, Assignment Submissions, Grades, Checklist Completion, Content Visited, Discussion Participation, Login History, Predicted Grade (for Student Success System users only), Quiz Performance, Survey completion, and System Access.
   • Login History indicates when the learner logged into Brightspace, not the course. However, if the Brightspace Data Platform is enabled, Course Logins displays in each learner's User Progress report, which reports on when they accessed the course.
   • System Access indicates each time the learner accesses Brightspace using a browser, or launches the Pulse app. System access begins when the user logs in, launches the app, or returns after 30 minutes of inactivity. It ends after 30 minutes of inactivity.
   • Absent period indicates the number of days since the learner last logged into Brightspace. For example, if "Oct 30, 3017 - absent period: 3" displays, the learner did not log in for 3 days, and an Oct 26 login displays below the Oct 30 login.
3. All course participants appear in the chart. Their name, username, and Org Defined ID display alongside their profile picture, if supplied. Their performance results for the listed indicators also display in the chart. Clicking on any area of this chart brings you to the individual user's User Progress page.
4. To adjust which performance indicators are displayed and which order they are displayed in, click Settings. You can also search for users by typing in the Search users field.
