Engagement Analytics

  • Updated

This article explains how to use Engagement Analytics, a tool that helps educators track student engagement within an Aula space at both the class and individual levels. This data can support informed teaching decisions.

As an educator, the Engagement section can help you understand:

  • Whether your students are  viewing and interacting with the space, allowing you to adjust it to improve participation,
  • Whether specific students might need additional support to achieve better outcomes.

Accessing Engagement Analytics at a Class Level

  1. In Aula, open the space that you'd like to see the data for.
  2. Head to Journey > Engagement.
  3. Select one of the following tabs: Space or Individual students
  4. By default, the data shown covers the last 30 days. To view a different time period, click on the Date box, select your desired range, and click the Update filter button.

Accessing Engagement Analytics for Individual Students

  1. In Aula, open the space that you'd like to see the data for.
  2. Head to Journey > Engagement.
  3. Click on the Individual students tab.
  4. Select the name of the student whose engagement data you want to view from the right side of the page, or enter the name in the provided search box.
  5. By default, the data shown covers the last 30 days. To view a different time period, click on the Date box, select your desired range, and click the Update filter button.
