7.1 Classroom Performance Tab Explained

What the Classroom Performance tab shows, how it's organized, and how to use it as your weekly classroom checkup.

Written by Kerry Ao

The Classroom Performance tab is your at-a-glance dashboard for the entire class. If you only have five minutes between periods, this is the one tab to check — it surfaces the most important signals about how your class is doing.

Opening Classroom Performance

Inside your classroom, click the Classroom Performance tab (it's the leftmost tab and the default landing page when you open a classroom).

The Course Selector

At the top of the page, you'll see a Course dropdown (e.g., "Personal Finance Core Foundations (2e)"). If you've assigned multiple courses to this classroom, use this dropdown to switch which course's data you're viewing. The entire page updates based on your selection.

The Four Main Sections

Classroom Performance is organized into four stacked sections, top to bottom:

  1. This Week in Your Classroom — A snapshot of the past 7 days

  2. Sub-View Tabs — Overview, Mastery, Engagement, Action

  3. Classroom Snapshot — Headline metrics for the entire class

  4. Module-by-Module Breakdown — Unit and module-level performance details

We'll cover each in its own article. This overview gives you the lay of the land.

This Week in Your Classroom

The top banner shows four metrics for the past 7 days:

  • Avg Accuracy — How accurately students answered assessment questions this week

  • Module with Most Difficulty — Which module is causing the most missed questions

  • Students at Risk — Count of students performing below mastery thresholds

  • Significant Improvement — Count of students showing notable upward progress

These weekly metrics are designed to be glanceable — a quick "is the class healthy?" check.

The Four Sub-Views

Below the weekly snapshot, you'll see four tabs:

  • Overview (default) — Headline numbers, Classroom Snapshot, Most Challenging Module, Most Improved Module

  • Mastery — Deeper dive into how students are mastering specific lesson concepts

  • Engagement — How active students are (time spent, lessons attempted, completion rates)

  • Action — Suggested next steps based on classroom data (e.g., "Re-teach Module 2," "Check in with these 3 students")

Click any tab to switch views. We'll cover the Overview view in detail in the next article — Mastery, Engagement, and Action work similarly.

Classroom Snapshot

In the Overview tab, you'll see a row of five high-level metrics:

  • Avg Accuracy — Overall accuracy across the class (e.g., 67%)

  • % On Track — Percentage of students keeping pace with assigned work

  • # At Risk — Number of students currently flagged as needing support

  • Avg Completion — Average percentage of assigned lessons completed

  • Avg Time/Lesson — How long students typically spend on each lesson (in minutes)

These metrics give you a much more accurate read on classroom health than weekly snapshots alone. We'll cover how to interpret them in 7.2 Reading the Classroom Snapshot.

Most Challenging / Most Improved Module

Below the Classroom Snapshot, two callout cards highlight:

  • Most Challenging Module — Where students are struggling the most

  • Most Improved Module — Where students are showing the strongest gains

These are great prompts for instructional decisions: "Should I re-teach this?" or "Can I move faster through this material?"

Module-by-Module Breakdown

At the bottom of the page, you'll see your course units laid out as expandable sections (e.g., "1. Financial Responsibility"). Click any unit to expand it and see:

  • Total Missed Questions — How many questions the class got wrong, summed across all students

  • Average Completion Time — How long lessons in this module typically take

  • Individual lessons within the module — Wants vs. Needs, Understanding Income and Expenses, Creating a Personal Budget, etc.

Click into any lesson to drill deeper into per-student performance on that specific content.

How Often to Check Classroom Performance

Daily (1 minute): Glance at "This Week in Your Classroom" to spot anything urgent.

Weekly (5 minutes): Review Classroom Snapshot and Most Challenging Module to inform next week's pacing.

Monthly (15 minutes): Drill into modules and lessons to plan re-teaches or interventions.

Before parent conferences (30 minutes): Dive into specific students using Student Performance (covered in 7.6 Student Performance Tab Deep-Dive).
