Dashboard
Is there a place to find real-time data on my students' progress?
| Alerts | There are three different icons shown under the 'Alert' column, what do they mean? | The orange alert means the student is waiting for a review of his/her work before s/he can access the assessment. The yellow alert means the student has submitted work that needs grading. The red alert means the student is out of retakes on an assessment. |

The Course tab provides details specific to individual student courses. This page is useful when comparing students assigned to the same course, as it provides a graphical representation of student progress. |
| Interpreting Dates and Progress on the Dashboard | There looks like a lot of information on this page. What are the key data metrics to monitor? | Some of the key data to monitor to are: Start Date, Target Date, First Grade, Last Grade, Days Since Last Action, Target Completion, and Progress. |
Managing Enrollments
Is there a page where I can keep an eye on student's overall performance in a course? I'd like to track their progress, pacing, grade, and even the last time they had a gradebook entry.
| Active Tab | Is there a list of all my student enrollments? | Accessing the Active Enrollments |
| Action Buttons | What are all the actions that can be taken with an enrollment? | Action Buttons |
