Classroom use cases for mobilizing your Communication activity report:
-
Filter for All students and a specific channel to see who was active in that channel. You can then check the posts to see who offered help, who needed help, or who didn’t participate.
-
If you create a channel for certain topics or units, you can use this report to measure participation for those subject areas.
-
Prompt students to help each other and share their knowledge with the class with a daily or weekly challenge in a channel. Ask students to share a lesson summary, help other students with their homework, or reply to questions. Filter your report by that channel and see which students stepped up to the challenge.
