Viewing the Usage report in Imagine Language & Literacy

The Usage report allows Teachers and Administrators to view time on the program for all students assigned to them. You can view actual student usage and predicted end-of-year student usage at both the group and individual student levels, and the Usage report updates within an hour.

 Notes

  • District Administrators can also view school-level data.
  • Only usage data from active students assigned to a group are included in the Usage report. Administrators with students unassigned to groups are notified at the top of the report. Click Unassigned Active Students to begin the process of assigning the students to a group. 

To view Usage reports:

  1. Log in to Imagine Language & Literacy.
  2. Select a group or organization from the bottom of the Home page.
  3. From the dashboard, click into the Usage section.

  4. The Usage report opens to the group-level view on the By Week tab. The Predicted EOY (End of Year) tab is also available.

     Note

    District Administrators: The report is available at the school level, and you can drill down into group-level data by first clicking on a school name in the bottom section of the report.

  5. Click on the tab corresponding to the section of the report you wish to view. The By Week tab displays data for past usage; the Predicted EOY tab calculates usage projections for future usage based on usage averages observed throughout the current academic year.
By Week Predicted EOY
  1. The Time Period filter defaults to the last 4 Weeks. Change the Time Period and Grade filters if desired.

    The Time Period options are:
    Time Period Definition
    This Week The current week that will end on Saturday.
    Last Week The previous full week that ended on Saturday.
    4 Weeks  The previous 3 full weeks ending on Saturday plus usage  accumulated so far in the current week that will end on Saturday.
    8 Weeks The previous 7 full weeks ending on Saturday plus  accumulated usage for the current week that will end on Saturday.
    Year to Date The data from the beginning of your school year until now.
    Custom Select a date range by clicking the start and end dates you want. If you select a date mid-week, the first dot on the graph shows data starting that day and ending on the Saturday of that week.
  2. The top of the report is either a bar graph (when the time filter is set to This Week or Last Week) or a line graph (all other timeframes, including the default 4 Weeks).  The horizontal dotted-green line on the graph visually indicates the usage goal, which can be edited at the school level by an administrator.

    When the Time Period is set to This Week or Last Week:
    • Each bar represents one day.
    • The weekly usage goal is divided by 5 to arrive at the daily usage goal. 
    • You can hover over a bar to display the average usage compared to the usage goal, as well as how many students used the program that day or week.


    When the Time Period is 4 Weeks, 8 Weeks, Year to Date, or Custom:
    • Each dot represents the week that ends on Saturday.
    • The faint dotted-green line represents your weekly usage goal.

  3. Depending on your role, the bottom of the report shows a row for each student's, group's, or school's data for the time frame you've selected in the filter.

    The columns at the bottom of the report for School Administrators and Teachers with more than 1 group are explained below. (Skip to step 4 if you have only 1 group).
    Column Name Description
    Name The name of the group (class).

     Note

    District Administrators: Your report shows a list of schools instead of groups; click the name of a school to drill down to the groups within that school.
    Active Students (YTD) The number of students within the group with 1 or more minutes of usage during the current academic year.
    Active Students (Time Period selected), i.e., Active Students (4 Weeks) The number of students with 1 or more minutes of usage during the selected timeframe.

     Note

    Only weekdays are included in the denominator of average daily usage calculations. For example, if you select a custom time period of 9 days and 2 of the 9 days are weekends, then the total usage will be divided by 7, not 9, to calculate the average.
    Daily Goal 
    or
    Current Weekly Goal    		 The usage goal set by an administrator for all students in the school. When the Time Period filter is set to This Week or Last Week, the daily usage displays, which is the weekly goal divided by 5. For all other timeframes, the weekly usage goal displays.

    Avg Percent of Daily Goal

    or

    Avg Percent of Current Weekly Goal

    The average percentage of the daily or weekly usage goal that the student has met during the selected Time Period. This is displayed visually in a bar and also listed as a percentage.

    A row for each student displays with the following columns. This is the default view for Teachers with only one group.
    Column Name Description
    Name The student's name. Click on the name to go from the group-level report to the individual student's data.
    Grade The student's rostered grade.

     Note

    In the PDF version of the report, the usage goal displays in minutes only, not hours and minutes. For example, a goal listed in the program as 1h 20 m will display as 80m in the report.

  6. Click on a student's name to go to an individual student's Usage report.
  7. The student-level report opens with the Time Period defaulted to 4 Weeks. This report is much like the group-level report; you can change the time period in the drop-down filter, and if you select This Week or Last Week, you'll see a bar graph instead.
