Assignments Due

The number of assignments due in a course offering for a given week is defined in the mart_helper.context__student_activity_score__assignments table. The week_number of an assignment is determined based on the difference in weeks between the due date of the assignment and the start date of the academic session. If the start date of the academic session is null, the start date of the academic term is used. If the start date of the academic term is null, the start date of the course offering is used. The student activity score only includes published assignments with due dates and non-zero points possible.

Submissions

The number of assignments submitted by a student in a course offering for a given week is defined in the mart_helper.context__student_activity_score__submissions table. The week_number of a submission is also defined as the difference in weeks between the due date of the assignment and the start date of the academic session, academic term, or course offering. We only count submissions for published assignments with due dates, non-zero points possible, and allowed submission types of 'on_paper', 'Assignments', 'not_graded', 'none', ' ', or 'external_tool'.

Navigation time and Number of Sessions

The amount of time spent and number of sessions in the learning environment for a student in a course is defined in the mart_helper.event__student_activity_score__navigation_time table. The week_number of an event is defined as the difference in weeks between the event time and the start date of the academic session, academic term, or course. The navigation_time for a given week in a course for a student is the amount of time spent in the learning environment for the prior two weeks. The num_sessions is the number of sessions for the prior two weeks. We define the two week range for a week based on the latest event time for the given week in the course. Periods of inactivity, 25 minutes or more between two consecutive events, are removed from our aggregations.
