Viewing Student Progress

Updated on

This guide will demonstrate how instructors can see which items students have marked as reviewed within the course.  Additionally, instructors can see the visibility status of a particular item at the current moment in time.  This feature is helpful to determine if students are able to access items with access restricted due to test availability exceptions or adaptive release rules.

To view students' progress in the course, hover over the item you wish to view user progress for, and click the chevron that appears to the right of the item name.  From the menu that appears, select User Progress.
