Class Weekly Reports come in two sections. The first section is intended to be printed out and posted on a classroom wall. The second section should only be seen by the teacher. These reports are automatically emailed on a weekly basis and can also be accessed if the teacher logs in.
The Problems We Identified
Teachers need a simple, duplicatable way to motivate students to use MathScore. Our experience has shown that praising students for accruing lots of engaged time leads to increased motivation. However, prior to this report, showing weekly engaged time was not convenient.How This Report Helps
We email this report automatically to teachers and strongly encourage them to print out the reports and post them on classroom walls. Given the convenience of this report, the probability that a teacher will motivate students based on engaged time usage increases significantly compared to not having this report.
What to do with this data
As you can see, students are listed in order of engaged time usage. Special accomplishments, such as a new rank or new trophy also appear here.

What to do with this data
One major point of emphasis is identification of new topic struggles. When these occur, it is a good idea for you to spend some individual time with these students to figure out what is causing them difficulty.

When that happens, this report will suggest that you congratulate that student for overcoming a tough challenge.How to Access this Report
