Insights Tab on Lessons
Threads & Themes Insights tab offers teachers an overall performance view and a way to take actionable next steps.
The performance data on the Insights tab includes:
Overall performance
Progress (student participation status)
Average performance on standards tagged
Top 3 underperforming questions
Item type performance
Average Time to Submit
Demographics**
For teachers, the data presented on this tab will include the data aggregated from all the teacher's classes this lesson was assigned to. For admins, there will be an option to filter down the data by teams, teachers and classes.
Note: guest student data is not included in the Insights data
Overall Performance
Based on the amount of students who responded to the assignment (not including guest students), the number and percentage of students who scored within each score threshold category are displayed.
The threshold categories correspond to those defined on the teacher's account. Teachers can adjust their default thresholds from their Threads & Themes account settings page.
Click on the 'i' icon next to a threshold category to view a list of students who scored within this threshold and their individual performance:
Create Student Groups
You can use the Overall Performance and the Thresholds breakdown to create performance based student groups within your class. Once set, you will be able to assign any lesson to one or more of these groups without having to select individual students.
To create student groups:
Select a class from the dropdown menu at the top of the screen
Click the "Create Student Groups" button
Confirmation will appear at the bottom of your screen
The newly created groups will now be visible on your class' student management page - where you will be able to edit them as needed. The groups will also be available for selection in the Assign Settings of any lesson moving forward.
Progress
This section will display total student participation status - how many students submitted the lesson, how many are still in progress, and how many have yet to start
Standards Tagged
Here teachers can view the overall average performance on each of the standards tagged to the lesson
Top 3 Underperforming Questions
The 3 most underperforming questions on the lesson will be presented in this section. Click on each one to see full details
Item Type Performance
This section will provide you data regarding the performance level of your students on different item types. This data can be used to discern if there are specific question types that your students are struggling with.
Rubric Performance
This section provides an overview of student performance on Rubric criteria. Select the rubric from the dropdown list, and whether you'd like performance displayed by percents or points (totals)
The performance will now display as a table:
Average Time to Submit
This section will display the average time it took students to submit their work from the time they accessed it for the first time. You can also find out how long it took for the first submission to come in, and the longest submission.
