I'm feeling dumb asking this question, but I only ever used this functionality at the end of a course to see a student's last attendance/participation as required for my final grade entries.
I used to be able to find (usually with a small amount of searching) a page on student activity in a course that gave me a graph of their grades, both entered by me and entered automatically for online assignments.
I believe showed the assignments on the y-axis, the dates on the x-axis, and the student's time spent and grade in the graph itself. It would be cascading graph of "blobs" of green.
I accessed it either thru People or Gradebook.
This semester I cannot find that activity timeline graph anywhere.
Perhaps it is gone now with the New Analytics replacing it?
But I can't find what I want in New Analytics (not yet anyway).
Does anybody remember this graph and where it was found?
And is there anything similar that is still available?
Edit: I found a picture of the Graph that I mean on this page How do I view analytics for a student in a course? - Instructure Community - 969 (canvaslms.com)
It is in the "View Submissions" section.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello @parmana,
I believe the most comparable feature in New Analytics would be https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-view-analytics-for-an-individual-studen.... You may also find useful information in the Individual Gradebook feature. It seems like the direct analog may not exist though.

James

@james_whalley, you may want to check that first link you pasted in 😅
Sorry, my original post was poorly worded. I wondered where an equivalent could be found in NA. It apparently doesn't exist yet.
Thanks for catching that.
Thanks. I don't think an equivalent exists in New Analytics yet. I desperately hope it shows up in NA before Canvas gets rid of Old Analytics.
