How to Analyze a Class's Performance on an Assignment

For admins: roll up a graded assignment to see class averages, score distribution, AI trends, and export student-level data.

Written by Gautam Thapar

Once an assignment is graded, EnlightenAI's admin console rolls every score up so you can see exactly how a class did — criterion by criterion — and where to focus next. This guide shows district and school admins how to analyze one class's performance on one assignment, from the score averages to an AI-written summary you can hand a teacher.

At a glance: Admin console (/ta) → Assignments → open the assignment → Performance (averages + distribution) → Filters to drill down → Trends and Insights (AI summary) → Export CSV.


Step 1. Open the assignment from your admin console

In your admin console (the /ta area), open the Assignments list. Find the assignment you want to look at — here, the district common assessment — and click it to open its analytics. Every assignment your schools graded rolls up here.

Step 2. See the class average on every criterion

The Performance tab opens on a snapshot of the whole class. Rubric score average shows how the class did on each criterion — here, Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning — plus a total. At a glance you can see Evidence is the weakest area. The header also shows how many students were graded and the submission rate.

Step 3. Read the score distribution

Rubric score distribution breaks each criterion into the share of students at every score level (red = lowest, green = highest). A criterion that leans red — like Evidence here — tells you where to reteach. This is the clearest way to spot a class-wide gap on one assignment.

Step 4. Drill down to one class, teacher, or group

Use the Filters on the left to narrow the view — by school, teacher, course, grade level, or student demographics — then click Apply Filters. As a district admin you can compare one class against another, or focus on a single teacher’s section. Click Clear all to reset.

Step 5. Let AI summarize the trends

The Trends and Insights tab uses AI to summarize the class: where students excelled, common areas of growth, and recommended next steps. It turns the scores into a plain-language read you can act on — or share with a teacher — without combing through every response.

Step 6. Export the student-level data

Scroll to Detailed data view for a student-by-student table, and click Export CSV to pull every score into a spreadsheet for grade books, reporting, or deeper analysis. This is the same data that rolls up into your district reports.
