In this post, I want to share our data-based analysis of how Eagles use Canvas. Four dashboards created with Tableau are embedded below as captioned images. I want to highlight three trends:
- The percentage of active courses hit new highs for the Spring and Fall terms in 2018, 73.34% and 78.61% respectively (more than 1,900 courses were active in each term).
- Several features were more popular in Fall 2018 than ever before. Old standbys – Announcements, Assignments, and Files – lead the way followed by Canvas’s course material organization tool – Modules – and online grading features – Scores and Submission Comments.
- Thousands of individuals at Emory use Canvas mobile apps every day. From Spring to Fall, the number of peak daily mobile app users increased by more than 50% and the number of monthly app users increased by more than 25%.
