The Student Usage Report makes it easier for educators to see which students, classrooms, and schools are hitting their DreamBox Math goals, ensuring students are making progress. The new Student Usage report is designed to be streamlined and consistent across all views. The new reports include all students who log in during the selected time frame.
Student Usage Report Basics
How often is the Student Usage Report Report updated?
The Student Usage report is updated overnight and is available year-round. There are a few exceptions that could impact student usage data for new DreamBox Math implementations:
- It is the very first day of your implementation: The report hasn't updated.
- Non-Launchpad district (Not first day): Students who have not logged in or have not started to play or complete lessons may not show usage data.
- Launchpad-enabled district (Not first day): Students who have not completed the Launchpad or are actively working through Launchpad assessment tasks will not show usage data until they complete Launchpad and start playing lessons.

Student Usage Report FAQs
| Q: How can administrators look at teacher and classroom-level usage? |
A: The new Reports Page includes filtering capabilities to allow Administrators to view the same reports their teachers are seeing. Administrators visiting the Reports Page, depending on permissions, will see a “School”, “Teacher”, “Classroom” and “Student” drop-down which enables filtering directly to the reports desired.
| Q: Why can't I filter the report for custom groups I created? |
A: To see custom groups in the Usage report, select Groups from the Reports page before you open the report. If you don't do this before opening the Usage report, you will not be able to see or move between your custom groups.

| Q: What can I learn from the Distribution by Grade Table in the district, school, and teacher levels of the report? |
A: The Distribution by Grade table is a quick way to see a grade-level breakdown of how many rostered students have logged in at least once during the selected time frame.
| Q: Will I be able to use the Student Usage Report all year? |
A: Yes. The Student Usage Report updates daily, throughout the entire year.
| Q: How can I see student usage in the Weekly Breakdown chart by month? |
A: To do see the breakdown of student usage by classroom in the Weekly Breakdown tab, update the date range to the first and last day of the month you wish to view. As long as the data is available, the report will update immediately.
| Q: On the classroom-level usage report, why does the Usage Stats table show a student completed more lessons than the Weekly Breakdown table? |
A: The Usage Stats table shows how many lessons a student completed during the selected timeframe at the top of the report. The Weekly Breakdown table shows how many lessons a student completed during the selected week within the selected timeframe.
| Q: What does a greyed-out “n/a” mean in the Weekly Breakdown table? |
A: The indicator “n/a” reflects data that will appear on the report but has not yet. For example, if it is Wednesday, data will not have populated for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. These days will have “n/a” and will be shaded a lighter grey to distinguish them from days where we currently have data.
| Q: Why does the data stop in the middle of the week in the Weekly Breakdown table? |
A: If data is not complete for the week even after all days have passed, it could be because the week splits across two school years. The weekly breakdown chart respects the school year, meaning that if the previous school year ends on a Tuesday, data for this year will start on Wednesday. Please reach out to your DreamBox representative to make sure the school start and stop dates in our system are correct.
