Assignment Settings - Student Focus Tracker

Edcite's Student Focus Tracker will monitor how many times students navigate away from the tab and for how many minutes. It also adds a message to the start of the assignment that the teacher will be notified about leaving the assignment.

Turning on the Student Focus Tracker:

1.  Open the Assignment Editor by going to Assignments, My Assignments on the navigation bar to the left, then clicking on the pencil to the far right of the assignment name. 

2. When in the Assignment Editor, click on the Settings Gear at the top right and select Open all Settings from the dropdown.

3. Select the Basic Settings tab on the left of the pop up. At the bottom, checkbox to the right of Track Student Focus, then click Save Changes. 

Save your assignment and you will be able to see the student focus tracking results after the students' submissions.

Accessing Student Focus Results:

The amount of minutes off of the assignment and the number of times the student left the assignment can be found in the student's answer history. You can access a student's answer history from their individual report.

Below is a screenshot of a student's report. You will find "Saved Answers History" in the top right corner.

From there you can see a quick snapshot of the focus tracking in the top right corner, and you can select "More" for a more detailed overview.

Teachers will see what time students left the assignment, for how long, and from what point of the assignment.

For more real-time information of when students are on and off the tab, check out our Real-Time Connect feature which shows teachers a green outline around the students that are on the assignment and a red outline around students that have navigated away.
