There are 3 main types of Analytics available in Ultra. Question Analysis reports data on overall student performance on assessments with questions, as well as statistics on individual questions. Course Reports reports data on overall student performance, interaction and engagement with the course. SCORM Reports generate data for specific SCORM Packages in the course.
