    Currently, the Messages Students Who percentage range only allows between 0% and 100%. Some faculty award extra credit and would have students with scores greater than 100%. The instructor is not able to message these students currently.

    Currently, Analytics Beta shows percentages. It would be nice if we could also toggle to show the raw numbers that create those percentages. It would be nice also to see the median score in addition to the average. #analytics beta‌

    Something that would be extremely helpful with the Analytics Feature would be the Number of Assignments students are missing along with the percentages.

    Loved the Analytics Feature.  It would be helpful to see usage times.  Sometimes I would like to know who was studying at home but if they came to class an logged in, it would just show that they logged in that day. There was no way to tell if they w...

    It would be really nice in the analytics beta to be able manually change the date range.  I am trying to email only those students who have not been active in their class (no participation) within the week.  I can't see that there are other ways to d...

    Having been looking at the Weekly Online Activity reports added to Analytics Beta this week, one thing that does strike me is that the resource listing also includes api resources (e.g. /api/v1/courses/3705/ping, /api/v1/courses/3705/pages/session-5/...

    TL;DRIt appears concluded enrollments are displaying in the analytics list. Only active enrollments should display by default.  Instructors should be able to filter out inactive and concluded enrollments from the analytics list.

    Students who are no longer enrolled in my course are showing up in Analytics Beta. So, when I look at which students with missing submissions, students who are no longer enrolled appear.Thank you!

    Why only a mean? Please add median for the class. Also, when I insert the filter for a course section, it only overlays dots on the scatterplot but provides no summary stats (i.e., means) for the sections. Summary stats are only provided for the whol...

    What time is the Analytics Beta data actually refreshed every day? My timestamp simply says "a day ago" but I am wondering if it happens at the same time every day so teachers can adjust accordingly when using it. Thanks!

    I've just played with Analytics Beta a little bit, but the immediate thing I wish it had was a force refresh button. I just put students tests in and I would like to see their average now rather than wait 24 hours. At that point, the feedback isn't a...

    Since all of my grades are imported from a publisher's site, every grade shows up as an "assignment". It would be much more valuable to be able to filter by Assignment Group. I have close to 100 graded items and they are not all equally important.

    Add the Total Activity column, currently available in the People tool, to Analytics Beta. This is a useful measure which our academics use a lot, and it seems strange not to have this in the new tool.
