Canvas New Analytics Now Available!

New AnalyticsCanvas has updated the Analytics tool and as of 11.05.19 the new tool has been enabled as the default for LCCC. The New Analytics button is located on the Home page of each course. The new Analytics data refreshes every 24 hours. A timestamp is included above the chart indicating when the last refresh was completed.

Page views and participation metrics include an aggregate across all devices used, including Canvas mobile apps which is a tremendous improvement for seeing a true reflections of a user's activity. Activity data currently includes LTI launches; however, it does not contain detailed LTI tool activity. This is true for New Quizzes and non-Canvas LTI tools such as Cengage, Pearson, etc. New Quizzes data is planned for the new Course Analytics offering but a timeline has not yet been determined.


What are the differences between existing analytics and Analytics Beta?


New Analytics has a few notable differences:
  • New Analytics displays data by week. This change was made to improve performance. If daily analytics data is required, data can be viewed through other mediums, such as Live Events.
  • The user experience has been simplified to focus on the most pertinent information in a more easily read format. High and low grades are displayed when selected.
  • A course average for students will be included in an upcoming feature that allows a user to view data based on a customizable setting by course.
