Become a Better Instructor Through Data Analysis
成人直播 faculty are excellent researchers and instructors. Now, with the use of a new tool, 成人直播 faculty are using their research skills to become more effective instructors and ultimately, learning scientists.
If you teach a course in any format (online, hybrid, or in-person) and use the D2L Gradebook, you can use uHoo Analytics to easily and effectively collect and analyze data and start your research into student success.
To gain access to uHoo Analytics, complete the Introduction to uHoo Analytics module within OwlTrain. Completing this training will also earn you the Introduction
to uHoo Analytics souvenir microcredential.
Once you gain access to uHoo Analytics, you will also receive:
- Monday Measures Email: This email will contain student, course, and quiz question alerts and links directly
to the uHoo Analytics dashboards.
- uHoo Analytics Dashboard: Links in the Monday Measures email will lead to the uHoo Analytics Dashboard, which
will provide insight regarding questions on quizzes and assignments that students
struggled with the previous week. If you use D2L to record attendance, this data will
also be available. These dashboards will give you a closer look at data for individual
students, assessments, and the course in general.
