# See how students did: the Insights tab

> Scores, how far students got, the hardest questions and the most common wrong answers, for the activity, each interaction in it, and each student.

The **Insights** tab shows how students did on an activity. Everything on it comes from what students actually did. Your own previews and anything staff do are never counted.

Open the activity and press **Insights**. Until a student answers something, it says **No insights yet.**

## Find your way around

Insights has three levels: the **activity**, each **interaction** in it, and each **student**.

- **The menu on the left** lists the activity, then its interactions under **Interactions**. The number beside each is how many students answered it. Press the arrow at the top to shrink the menu to its icons, and again to open it. Taktyl remembers your choice on this device.
- **The band at the top** names where you are. Above the name, each step back up is a link. Beside the name, **Switch** opens a list of the others at the same level: the other activities in the workspace, the activity's other interactions, or the five students before and after this one.
- **Four numbers** sit in the band. For the activity: how many students took part and finished, the average of the score that counts (with how many passed, if there is a pass mark), attempts per student, and the median time from opening to finishing.
- **Overview**, **Visualisations** and **Students** are the three views, under the band. They stay at the top while you scroll.

## Narrow it down

- **Course** shows one LMS course, or the activity's own link. **All courses and links** shows everything.
- **Version** shows one published version. It appears once there is more than one.
- **Since** shows **All time**, **Last 7 days**, **Last 4 weeks**, **Last 8 weeks** or **Last 12 months**.

Your choices stay in the page address, so a copied link opens the same view. They stay as you move between levels.

## The activity

- **Overview**: **In short** (up to three plain facts worth knowing), **How far they got** (how many opened it, answered a page, finished, and passed), and **Page by page**: for each page, **Right first time** (answers right on the first try), how many **Answered**, and each question's **Most common wrong answer**, in the words students saw. Press **Lowest first** to put the hardest at the top. Press an interaction's name to open its level.
- **Visualisations**: **Attempts each week**, how many students got each score, **How far they got**, and **Right first time, page by page**. Press a page's bar to open its interaction.
- **Students**: each student's course, **Score that counts**, **Attempts** and **Last attempt**. When scores go to an LMS gradebook, a **Gradebook** column says **Sent**, **Sending**, **Not sent** or **Not graded**, and buttons above the list show just one of these. Search by name or email. Press a name to open that student's page.

If any scores did not reach the gradebook, a notice at the top of **Overview** and **Students** says how many and why. Press **Retry** (or **Retry all**) to send them again.

## One interaction

Press an interaction in the menu. It counts this activity's attempts only, under the same choices.

- **Overview**: **Question by question**: **Right first time**, then the percentage **Right**, **Wrong** and **Skipped** of the attempts that reached it, and the most common wrong answer.
- **Visualisations**: **How each question went** (right, wrong and skipped, as one bar each) and **Right first time, question by question**.
- **Students**: everyone who answered it, from their latest attempt that reached it: how many questions they answered and got right, and the points.

## Charts

Every chart on **Visualisations** is a card:

- Point at a bar, or move to it with the Tab key, to see its number.
- Press **Table** to see the same numbers as a table, and **Chart** to go back. Taktyl remembers your choice for each chart on this device.
- Press the star to keep a chart at the top. Your stars are yours alone, and they follow you to every activity (or every interaction) and to any computer. Press the star again to take it away.

## One student

A student's page lists their attempts, newest first: when they started and finished, the time, the score, whether it reached the gradebook, and every answer they gave, with the right answer beside a wrong one. Opened from an interaction, it shows that interaction's answers only. It is read only: press **Open in Review** to give a mark and feedback.

## Reports and downloads

Press **Create report** for a file of the view on your screen: the numbers in the band, then each of the view's tables, under your choices. Taktyl makes it in the background. When it is ready, press **Create report** again: your last five reports of the same view are listed there, newest first, with **Create a new report** at the foot. Only you can download your reports, for 7 days. The file is a CSV, which opens in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets.

Press **Download CSV** for every attempt, one row each, with points, percent and gradebook state.

## One interaction, everywhere it runs

An interaction has an **Insights** tab of its own, in its editor. It counts every activity that runs the interaction. It shows the attempts that reached it, the average score on it, and **Question by question**: the percentage **Right**, **Wrong** and **Skipped**, and the most common wrong answer.
