Hi!
We recently were looking at the "FeedbackIsRead" column in the data report "Assignment submissions" and we've noticed some issues with the way the data is collected for feedback. If a user views their overall feedback from the Gradebook, this doesn't count as "read". Additionally, if there is inline marks that the student accesses by clicking the "View inline feedback" from within the gradebook, this also isn't counted as "read". This latter item is especially odd as this link opens up the feedback area in the assignment — the same view that the student sees if they view feedback from the assignments link rather than the gradebook link.
My question for the group is therefore has anyone found any way to accurately determine if a student has read feedback? We're looking to see if we can get an idea of actual student review of the feedback, and also compare that to attainment/retention to see if we can make any concrete links within our institution/in specific divisions/departments. If anyone has any tips for how to go about this, that would be much appreciated!
Best,
Laura
