Course and Activity reports


There are many different reports that you can use in QMplus to track students engagement within your course, as well as to plan your assessments. Some of these reports are available automatically, others have to be set up in advance.

To access the reports menu, click Reports in the top tabs bar and choose the one you want to view.




Logs and live logs


Logs give a broad indication of learner activity in a course. Consider the type of activity in the Actions dropdown, and you will usually want to select 'Participant' in the Events dropdown to see student activity.

Individual reports for users


Logs and reports for individual learners may be accessed from their profile, allowing you to monitor the activity of just one learner.
