ACE captures valuable data which can help us teach our courses better. This data is actionable, which means it can show when it would be a good idea to contact individual students to check on their progress. In an online environment, last log-in and activity within a specific timeframe tend to be the best indicators of students who need encouragement and help with their studies. 

The following short videos explain how an instructor can check log-ins during the past 7 days, set a custom date range for log-ins, view student activity as sorted by tool, and view student activity as sorted by event. Also included here are some simple outreach templates which can be edited and adapted to your courses. These templates should help cut down on the time needed to provide customized and  individualized contact with students.
