OSCampus Now Has Much Better LMS Statistics

OSCampus Now Has Much Better LMS Statistics

OSCampus is the best way to build an online training site with Joomla.

OSCampus is incredibly robust and is already used by thousands of people every week. OSCampus runs the video training on OSTraining, and its architecture is the basis for Joomlashack University and the official Joomla.org training site!

In the latest release, you'll find a revamped "Statistics" area with much better statistics on your classes and students.

In this blog post, I'll introduce you to the new OSCampus statistics in the Joomla administrator area.

  • After updating your OSCampus version, go to "Components" then "OSCampus Pro".
  • This will bring you to the "OSCampus Pro: Classes" screen, as you can see on the next image. Here you need to click the "Statistics" link in the left menu:

Inside this area, you'll find four new statistics screens:

  • Most Popular
  • Weekly Activity
  • Class Activity
  • Student Activity

#1. The "Most Popular" screen

The first screen you will see is the "Most Popular" layout which shows your most visited classes. This screen displays the following training statistics:

  • Views: how many times a lesson was viewed by students.
  • Lesson: a lesson title.
  • Class: what class a lesson belongs to.
  • Last Visit: when a class was viewed the last time.

#2. The "Weekly Activity" screen

Next, let's take a look at the "Weekly Activity" screen, as shown in the next image. This gives you an overview of how popular your training is each week.

On this screen, you can view seven columns with the following class activity statistics:

  • Week: the date the week started.
  • Videos: how many videos have been viewed this week.
  • Quizzes: how many quizzes have been taken this week.
  • Text: how many text lessons have been viewed this week.
  • Other: how many lessons by the "Other" lesson type have been viewed this week.
  • Total: total number of lesson views this week.
  • Users: total number of students who took lessons this week.

#3. The "Class Activity" screen

Next, let's look at the "Class Activity" screen which allows you to drill down and get data on each class.

the course activity columns

On this screen, you can view the following class activity statistics:

  • Title: the title of a class
  • Release Date: the date of the class release
  • Students: total number of students taking part in a class
  • Certificates: total number of certificates awarded for a class

This area of OSCampus also allows you to drill down further. When you click on the title of a course, you will see the page with the class statistics per student:

On this page you can view the following columns:

  • Student: the name of a student who took part in the class
  • First Visit: the date of the first visit of the student to this class
  • Last Visit: the date of the last visit of the student to this class
  • Progress: the percentage of lessons viewed by the student relative to the total number of the class lessons
  • Lessons: the total number of lessons viewed by the student relative to the total number of the class lessons
  • An icon to download the student's certificate awarded for the class

You can then drill down even deeper, and see individual student statistics for the class. You do that by clicking on the name of a student. This will display the student's statistics for that specific class:

  • Last Visit: date of the last visit of a student

  • Progress: percentage to which the student completed a class

Again, you can zoom in to the student's activity per class. Click on the required class title and this will bring you to the page, displaying statistics of the student's history in that class:
