What is the Minutes?
You can view how many minutes students spend on eSpark each day in your Weekly Activity Report.
You can set a goal for how many minutes you want students to spend on eSpark daily.
How are minutes calculated?
Minutes are separated out by Math and Reading on the Weekly Activity Report.
The minutes calculation is intended to capture minutes students spend engaged in learning activities on eSpark (for example, if student logs in spends 5 minutes on the subject choice screen, those minutes won't count). Minutes get reported to the teacher dashboard hourly instead of in real time.
How can I view minutes?
1. Click on the Weekly Activity Report tab on your dashboard.
2. To view minutes, toggle to minutes under the report title in your Activity report.
Keep in mind that the reporting is divided by subject: Math and Reading. In this example, the reports only reflect the minutes students have spent working on Reading. You can also filter minutes by activity type, including Quests, Assignments, or a combination of both.
💡 TIP: You can track the total number of minutes spent on eSpark in the week on the left-hand column.
How can I adjust the goal number of minutes for my class?
1. In the Minutes view in the Weekly Activity Report, click on the highlighted box.
2. You can enter in how many minutes a day you would like students to work on eSpark.
Students with highlighted numbers spent less than the goal time you set. In this example, Violet spent 20 or more minutes on eSpark on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but less than 20 minutes on Tuesday.
