9.3* Student Analytics
Student Analytics is where EdisonOS's reporting depth truly shows. Clicking into an individual student's report gives you a comprehensive breakdown of their performance across every dimension of the test.
Top-Level Score Summary
The first section of a student report displays headline metrics at a glance:
Metric | Description |
|---|---|
Total Questions | Total number of questions in the test |
Correct | Number and percentage of questions answered correctly |
Incorrect | Number and percentage of wrong answers |
Skipped | Number and percentage of questions left unanswered |
Missed | Questions not reached due to time running out |
Accuracy Percentage | Correct out of attempted (excludes skipped/missed) |
Correct / Attempted | Ratio of correct answers to questions actually attempted |
Percentile | Student's performance relative to all students on the platform |
Score Gap | The gap between the student's current score and their target score |
Target Score | Pulled from the student's profile (if set) |
Total Time Spent | Overall time the student spent on the test |
The Score Gap field only populates if the student's target score has been entered in their profile. Make sure Academic Goals are filled in for every student this turns a raw score into a meaningful milestone marker.
Section-Level Breakdown
Scrolling down reveals a breakdown by test section Reading & Writing and Math each showing:
Total questions in the section.
Correct, incorrect, skipped, and missed counts.
Score for that section.
Time taken.
Accuracy percentage.
Performance by difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard).
Performance by time spent.
You can click directly into a specific section (e.g., Reading & Writing) to see a further breakdown by:
Baseline section results.
Adaptive section results (Upper or Lower, depending on how the student performed).
Section-specific score, accuracy, and time data.
Comparing a student's Baseline section performance to their Adaptive section performance tells you a great deal about their consistency. A student who performs well on Baseline but drops significantly on the Adaptive Upper section may be struggling with higher-difficulty material specifically not the content domain overall.
Answer Changes Tracker
EdisonOS tracks every answer change a student makes during a test, categorising each change as:
Correct → Incorrect (student changed a right answer to a wrong one)
Incorrect → Correct (student self-corrected successfully)
Incorrect → Incorrect (student changed from one wrong answer to another)
A high rate of Correct → Incorrect changes is a red flag for test anxiety or second-guessing. This student may not need more content practice, they may need test strategy coaching on trusting their first instinct.
Skill Difficulty Heat Map
The Skill Difficulty Heat Map is one of the most actionable reports in EdisonOS. It breaks performance down by domain and difficulty level simultaneously, showing you exactly where a student is struggling.
For each domain (e.g., Craft and Structure, Algebra, Data Analysis), you can see:
Total questions from that domain.
How many were Easy, Medium, and Hard.
How many the student answered correctly at each difficulty level.
Example: Craft and Structure might have 14 total questions: 6 Medium, 4 Hard, 4 Easy. Student answered 11 correctly overall, with a breakdown showing they got all Easy correct but struggled on Hard.
Use the heat map to write targeted problem set assignments. If a student is scoring well on Easy and Medium Algebra but failing on Hard, assign them a problem set filtered to Hard Algebra questions specifically not another full Algebra set.
Look across multiple students' heat maps to find class-wide patterns. If the same domain is red across many students, that is a signal to address it in group instruction not just individual practice.
Student Response Review
The Student Response Review shows every single question the student answered, with:
The question itself.
The student's selected answer.
The correct answer.
Whether it was right, wrong, skipped, or missed.
Clicking Detail View on any question opens a deeper layer showing:
The full activity log for that question (including time spent and answer changes).
Insights about the question - difficulty, domain, skill, and question type.
Use the Detail View when a student disputes a score or is confused about why they got a question wrong. It gives you the full audit trail of exactly what happened on that question during the test.
