Note
The Attendance Logs for EdgeEX and heritage courses function separately. If you are looking for information about the Attendance Log for heritage courses, reference Accessing the Attendance Log.
Use this article to view the Attendance Log and Session Log for EdgeEX courses.
The EdgeEX Attendance Log provides a high-level view of a student’s daily activity across all courses. The EdgeEX Session Log shows a granular breakdown of how they spend their time in each course. Filtering options are available for you to isolate specific students or sections to monitor.
Included in the EdgeEX Attendance Log is the new metric of Review Time, which captures when students spend time revisiting previous work to reinforce their learning. In the EdgeEX Attendance Log, Active Time represents the total of Activity Time plus Review Time. This is because reviewing course content as a student studies for assessments is a learning activity. In heritage, that review time is included in Idle Time.
