Instructor Attendance Analysis

You can use the Instructor Attendance Analysis report to generate a summary of student attendance in class sections by instructor.

If you frequently generate reports with the same selection criteria, you can save the selection criteria under a name. This makes it easier to create reports in the future with the same selection criteria.

Procedure to Generate the Report

  1. Specify the data selection criteria.

    Campus GroupsClosed The group you specified for the campus. Your institution configures the groups for campuses.

    CampusesClosed The campus where the student or students were enrolled.

    Class/Section Start DateClosed The start date of the class or class section. From and To

    CoursesClosed The code and name of the course associated with the record. Some pages also indicate the course status (Active or Inactive).

    InstructorsClosed The instructor or instructors assigned to the course, class section, or class section session.

    Load Saved CriteriaClosed Select the saved criteria you want to load in the selection criteria fields.

    Student GroupsClosed The name of the student group. If you are selecting a group and your institution has configured Anthology Student to limit groups to campuses, you can only select groups for the campus to which you are assigned. If you are selecting a group, it can also be filtered to display groups where you are the owner, public groups, and private groups to which you have been given access.

    Student ID to PrintClosed Indicates whether you want to include the Student ID, Social Security Number, Enrollment Number, or None. Note: The ID is printed for each student selected for the report. Most reports have all three student IDs available to print on the report. The SSN is required on some reports. You must be authorized to view social security numbers (SSNs) and to select SSNs in the list. Reports about leads (prospects) do not have an Enrollment ID. The ID selection is not used for reports that do not list individual students.

    Student Start DateClosed The date the student starts the class section/program version. This value is filled in by default based on the Class Section Start Date. Some processes, reports, and list include the option to filter records by start date or start date range. From and To

    TermsClosed Specifies the term associated with the record. Terms are configured by your institution. The term start date must be before the end date of the award year.

Task Action to Take
View the report

  1. Select the View Report button. Anthology Student displays the generated report.
Export the report

  1. Select the Export to Excel button. Anthology Student displays the Export Report Data dialog.

    Export File NameClosed The name of the item (e.g., data set, batch, job, process, task, person, organization, entity, file).

  3. Select the Export button.

Anthology Student exports the generated report as a CSV file, which may be viewed in Excel. In some cases, the exported file will contain additional data not displayed in the report on your screen.

If you entered special characters like *, -, !, (, or ) in the report fields, Anthology Student automatically prepends an apostrophe to those field values upon export to Excel or CSV. The apostrophe is added to reduce vulnerability, as these characters are perceived by Excel as an actionable formula. Once the report is exported to Excel, Anthology suggests using find and replace on the characters only if necessary to restore original values.
