The system collects statistical data on the questions used in your assignments items. It can produce various statistical analysis based on item usage and student performance data automatically.
On the Item Statistics tab, select from the following options to build a report.
Assignment(s) - To specify items from particular assignments (use CTRL to select more than one assignment)
Date Range - To specify for assignment completion
Printer-Friendly - To display the report below the Get Report button or in a separate window
To create item statistics reports:
From the Instructor Main Menu, select Gradebook.
Click the Item Statistics tab.
Customize the report by selecting the Assignment,
Date Range, and Printer-Friendly
Table.
If you select Printer-Friendly Table, the report
displays on a new screen. Otherwise, the report displays below the Get Report button.
Click Get Report.
The report displays.
Click Back to return to the Item Statistics tab if you selected Printer-Friendly Table.
Important:
The system allows a variety of possible assignment applications for each
question item, which means calculating traditional item
analysis on question bank items may produce unexpected results.
Remember that the analysis and statistics produced in the Item Statistics reports here are based on the limited
use of question items in the specific context of the assignments you specify.
If you specify assignments that are of more than one assignment mode or
that do not have identical assignment settings, item statistics calculated
here are unreliable.
To produce reliable item analysis results, select only one assignment for
Item Statistics or ensure that all selected assignments
have identical rules and policies.
