What is the Reports feature?
The Reports feature is Albert’s one-stop shop for a wide variety of data reports. You can generate reports for your classes based on different criteria, allowing you to analyze your data more flexibly and make instructional decisions. You can scope your Reports to a single Albert class or view student data for all of your classes in a single view.
Report Types
Albert offers 6 report types. All our data reports operate in a similar way, and can be further distilled by using the “Drilldown” option.
Gradebook [Pro]: The "Gradebook" report is part of the Pro Upgrade, which offers a suite of additional data reporting tools to provide educators with even deeper insights. The Gradebook report allows you to easily view how your students perform across all assignments.
Students: Reviewing student-level data lets you easily view how your students perform within your class or on a specific standard/question/topic. You can drill into student-level data to see how each student performed on specific assignments, as well as student averages by questions and standards. Like all of our Reports, Student reports can be downloaded for use during IEP meetings or conferences.
Assignments: Reviewing assignment-level data allows you to easily view how your students perform on a specific assignment. You can drill into a single assignment, or even multiple assignments' data to view student performance, including their scores, and class averages for questions and standards.
Questions: Reviewing data by question allows you to easily view how your students are performing on specific questions. You can use this information to create review assignments or identify patterns in any misconceptions. Drill into question-level data to see how individual students performed on each question.
Standards: Reviewing data by standards allows you to easily view how your students are performing on key standards within your curriculum. You can drill into standard-level data to see how class averages by standard or across multiple standards. You can also view how each student performed on specific standards, and question averages sorted by standard.
Subjects & Topics: Reviewing data by subject allows you to easily view how your students perform across all Albert subjects you've assigned practice from. This is also helpful to track student performance in subjects you've opened for Independent Practice.

Viewing Additional Data Details
Albert Data Reports offer many levels of data to assist with analysis. To see further details and insights, hover over the name of the assignment, student, standard, etc. You will see a blue arrow appear. This is the “Drilldown” arrow, indicating there is more information available. Click the arrow to dig deeper into your data.
Example use of the drilldown to analyze assignment data:
Click Reports and select the relevant class name.
From an Assignments Report, click the blue drilldown arrow next to an assignment title to drill down to the student level data, exposing scores and submission statuses by student.
[Pro-Tip]: You can adjust the view to see how your class performed at the question or standards level for that particular assignment by changing the selector in the report toolbar to Questions or Standards.
Additional Reports Guidance
Using the Multi-Select Tool
The multi-select option allows you to view data for multiple assignments, students, standards, etc. Simply check the box next to the assignment title, student name, etc. then click Drilldown Selection.
How Time Spent is Calculated
Time spent calculates the active time students spend answering questions. If students closes the page or select an answer, time spent stops calculating.
For example, if a student spends 3 minutes reading a passage and 30 seconds choosing an answer, their "time spent" will be calculated as 3:30.
Once the student selects an answer, the time spent stops calculating. If they change their mind and select another answer, the time spent will update again for that second choice.
If the student spends 3 minutes reading, 30 seconds choosing an answer, and an additional 15 seconds double-checking if the answer they selected is correct, the last 15 seconds are not counted because an answer was already chosen and not changed.
Viewing Draft Guesses
If you would like to view a student's draft guesses as they complete the assignment, adjust the *1st Attempts filter to “Include In-Progress Attempts”. If you do not want to view draft guesses, you can choose to exclude in-progress attempts.
Draft guesses are answers students have selected for a specific question before they have clicked "Submit Answer". Students can return to these questions and revise their answers, if they choose.
Using the Search Feature
At any point, you can use the Search bar to refine your data further. For example, you could search by a specific state’s standards by typing “CA” or “California” into the search bar.
Downloading Reports
To save your report, click Download Report. This will generate a CSV that can be viewed in Excel or Google Sheets. To share your report with a co-teacher or approved school admin, simply copy & paste the URL. Alternatively, any co-teacher added to your classroom can generate their own data reports.
Grades vs. Accuracy
In a few of our reports, teachers have a choice to view student performance either by Grade or Accuracy.
Metric | Definition | Purpose |
Grade | The "Grade" metric counts any unanswered questions in an assignment as incorrect attempts. | "Grade" is typically the preferred metric that most teachers input into official gradebooks. |
Accuracy | The "Accuracy" metric does not count unattempted questions as correct or incorrect. | "Accuracy" is typically the preferred metric that most teachers use for monitoring student progress as the assignment is being completed since it ignores unanswered questions. |
To change relevant reports from displaying either Grade or Accuracy:
Click the gear next to the Grade or Accuracy column header.
Select the Calculation Method dropdown. Select the preferred metric: Grade or Accuracy.
Note: The Accuracy metric is most relevant for students during an active assignment. Some reports can only show the Grade metric based on the data's context.
