New Analytics is a Canvas tool that allows instructors to track average course grades for student submissions using an interactive chart, graph, or table. Additionally, New Analytics allows you to filter and compare student data to whole class averages. Having access to this information provides insights into student engagement and participation as well as student overall assessment and progression. This session will provide an overview of New Analytics and an introduction to creating and interpreting data reports using New Analytics in Canvas.
