    After trying out the New Analytics features, we found some confusing ways for presenting some features. (1) The list of students is not clear. By default, the Course average is displayed, and the list below counts all 10 students in my course. When I...

    I'm curious--what is your thinking around enabling New Analytics view for students? If you did it, why, and how's it going? If not yet, why not and when do you think you might (if ever)?

    Having to wait 24 hours to get the class averages for an assignment is burdensome and not helpful for a teacher!! I would like to see the statistics for an assignment as soon as I entered it, like we were able to do last year with the statistics.
