Online Attendance in New Analytics

Online Attendance is a new dashboard in the course-level New Analytics space, with several possible attendance criteria:

  • Page views
  • Post a comment to an announcement or a discussion
  • Submit an assignment
  • Create a page
  • Start taking or submit a quiz

Instructors can set the days of the week their class meets. When a student meets any of the selected criteria on a given day, that student is marked as “attended” for that day.

Instructors can filter the Online Attendance dashboard to view data by course, section, or individual student. Instructors can also filter by day of week and students who met the criteria or did not meet the criteria.

For more information, please refer to Instructure's new release announcement, and the FAQ
