Run Student Usage by Day Report

The Student Usage by Day report is also referred to as an Attendance report since it reports time spent in courses by day. This report is also referred to Idle Time report since it reports idle time for a student by day.

To Run a Student Usage by Day Report:

1.  Select Other Reports from the Main Menu, then select Student Usage by Day.  
2.  Select the Input Criteria prior to generating the report (see table below).  Note: Administrators and Teachers select from different input criteria.   
   

   Setting	Options
   Domain	This single select list will display the current domain and all domain names under the domain where the report is being run. If the district domain is selected, only the users at the district level will display in an alphabetical list under teachers and students, only data for those users will be included in the results. School or Program subdomains must be run in a separate report by selecting subdomains individually. Running this report for a large district or school may timeout due to the amount of data the report needs to display. For those scenarios, Pearson recommends running the report for 50 teachers or 50 students at a time, depending on the user report need.
   Teacher	This is a multi select list of teacher/teacher-author names in Last Name, First Name format for the selected domain(s) above. By not selecting a teacher, the report will be generated for all teachers. Teacher IDs’ are provided after the name to differentiate between teachers with the same name.
   Student	This is a multi select list of students in Last Name, First Name format for the selected domain(s) above. By not selecting a student, the report will be generated for all students. Student IDs’ are provided after the name to differentiate between students with the same name.  If teachers and students are selected, then the report will display courses where at least one of the teachers and one of the students are both enrolled.
   Enrollment Status	This is a single select list that will display student activity for courses with a selected enrollment status. Default is Active.
   Course Status	Active course will include all Continuous courses and all Traditional courses where  the current date falls in the course start and end date range. Selections are Active and Inactive. Default is Active.
   Start Date – End Date	Specifying a date range displays usage within the date range. A date range must be included. The date range may not exceed one year in duration for a single report request.  The report includes the time spent for activities worked on during that date  range, as long as the activity was launched on that start date and the course enrollment is active for the specified date range.
   Display By	There are three options – by Course, Student (default), by Student, Course, and by Student. Depending on the user selection, the information displays time spent by day for students in a course (by course, student), or all courses for a student (by  student, course), or for students across all courses.
   Export Options	Export options of HTML, PDF, XLS, and DOC are available. Default is PDF.

Reading the Student Usage by Day Report

 Notes on the Student Usage by Day Report

• This single select list will display the current domain and all domain names under the domain where the report is being run. If the district domain is selected, only the users at the district level will display in an alphabetical list under teachers and students, only data for those users will be included in the results. School or Program subdomains must be run in a separate report by selecting subdomains individually. Running this report for a large district or school may timeout due to the amount of data the report needs to display. For those scenarios, Pearson recommends running the report for 50 teachers or 50 students at a time, depending on the user report need.

• If an administrator runs a report for certain teachers, only the courses taught by that teacher will display. If the teacher is enrolled in the course as a student, that course will not display as taught by that teacher.

• Students who have saved assessments that were not submitted will not display even if the assessment was saved during the time range specified. Assessments are only displayed when they are submitted.

• The date range filter must not exceed 1-year duration from the start date. In other words, you cannot choose a date that is more than 365 days from the start date entered. For example, the start date of August 1, 2020, the end date cannot exceed July 31, 2021. If you enter August 1, 2021, that is one year + 1 day.

• The date range filters on the activity end date. If a student launched an activity on 8/30/20 at 11 pm and worked in it for a couple of hours, the activity will span two dates of 8/30/20 and 8/31/20. If the teacher runs the student usage by day report for a date range of 8/30/20 to 8/30/20, the activity will not display since the activity end date is 8/31/20.

• If a student logs in at 11:55 pm on 8/30/20 and logs out at 12:08 am on 8/31/20, online time will display as 5 minutes for 8/30/20 and 8 minutes on 8/31/20.

• Idle Time is calculated as Online Time minus Time spent in course.

• Submission date for manually graded items is the date the teacher scored the activity. When a student submits an activity, the activity status is Submitted – this is submission number 1. Submission number is incremented by 1 when the teacher scores the activity.

• The XLS output displays time as seconds, as this time format is easier to import into other systems and format to meet multiple customer needs. All other printable report formats display time in both seconds and HH:MM:SS format.

• If a student does not appear in the list, they may be set as an observer to another user by mistake or their user account is inactive. Correct that error to populate the student in the filter list.
