Learning Feedback Dashboard

The Learning Feedback dashboard shows you how satisfied learners are with the content they take and whether they would recommend it to others. From this dashboard you can see the highest and lowest ranked courses as well as individual course ratings. This helps you make decisions about where to focus your content development efforts.

Dashboard Insights

The Learning Feedback dashboard gives you insights on how your learners rate the content they access. You can:

  • See how many learners are actually rating content. If not many learners are rating content, you may want to encourage them to fill out the surveys so that you can get more insights into what content they find most helpful.
  • Filter the dashboard by content type or collection to gain insights into what content your learners rate the highest. Use this information to tailor learning to your users preferences.
  • See which content items your learners rate the highest. You may consider promoting this content to other learners on your platform.

Filters

The following filters are available for this dashboard:

  • Date Range: Filters the data by a specified range of dates that you select from the drop-down list. You can also select a custom range from the beginning of one month to the end of the same month or the end of another month.
  • Start: Instead of using a Date Range preset, use this to specify a start date. When you enter a Start date, the Date Range Presets filter changes to Custom. The start date must be the first day of the month.
  • End: Instead of using a Date Range preset, use this to specify an end date. When you enter an End date, the Date Range Presets filter changes to Custom. The end date must be the last day of a month or today's date.
  • Audience: Predefined group of users. Enter the name of an audience and then select it from the list. You can display the data for multiple audiences at the same time by entering more than one audience name. You can select up to 20 audiences.
  • Collections: Select the name of a content collection to see learning activity associated with just that collection. A collection is a licensed unit of content.
  • Content title: Enter the name of a title for a specific content item to see information associated with just that item.
  • Type: Select the survey type to see learning feedback associated with just that content. Currently, you can filter to view learning feedback data for Courses and Live Courses.

    You can also filter on the type, CAISY. However, because the survey questions for CAISY simulations are different than the rest of the survey questions, only the Net Promoter Score section of the dashboard populates with data when you select CAISY. To see all survey results for CAISY simulations, please use the Content Evaluation report.

    The rating sections on the dashboard are not updated because ratings are from a different set of data. To get your feedback results for learning programs, contact your Skillsoft account team. Coming in a future release, the results will be on the Learning Feedback dashboard.

About this dashboard

You can see data on this dashboard in the following sections:

In the banner section you see the following information:

  • Responses: The total number of surveys completed within the date range specified.
  • Content items rated: The total number of unique items rated within the date range specified. This number could be lower than the number of responses if multiple learners completed a survey for the same content item.
  • Positive experience: The percent of learners who answered either Somewhat satisfied or Extremely satisfied to the question: Overall, how satisfied were you with the content? For example, if you assume 100 learners submitted responses for this question and the answers are: 1 extremely dissatisfied, 2 somewhat dissatisfied, 12 neutral, 29 somewhat satisfied, and 56 extremely satisfied. Then percentage with a positive experience is 29%+ 56%= 85% .
  • Application rate:The percent of learners who answered either Likely or Very likely to the question: How likely are you apply what you learned to your job?

Use the information in this section to gauge:

  • How many learners are completing surveys and if you should try to increase participation.
  • Whether the content is meeting learner expectations. If you have a positive experience rating higher than 80%, you can feel good about the experience your learners are having.
  • Whether learners are applying what they learned. If you have an application rate higher than 80%, you can feel good that your learners are making an impact with the learning they achieved.

This section has two tabs:

  • Overall experience: Shows the distribution of how learners answered the question: Overall, how satisfied were you with the content? It showcases the positive experience percentage.
  • Content features: For each content item, learners can rate up to 8 different components specific for that course. The question they answer is: How would you rate your satisfaction level with the following course components? This chart shows the positive experience percentage for each component across all courses rated within the global filters specified.

Use the information in this section to gauge:

  • How learners feel about the content contained in the courses
  • Areas for improvement

This section has three tabs:

  • Learner motivation The percent distribution of how learners responded to this question: What best describes the reason you took this course?
  • Application potential: The percentage distribution of how much learners agreed with the following prompt: I am likely to apply the concepts I learned.
  • Understanding of content: The percentage distribution of how much learners agreed with the following prompt: I understand the concepts taught in the course.

Use the information in this section to gauge:

  • Whether learners will apply what they learned and if what you are trying to teach is making its way into business practices.
  • Why learners are taking different courses. For example, if you discover learners are only taking courses when they are assigned and not for other reasons, you might consider why that is and if that is the culture you want to create.

This section shows the percentage distribution of learner responses to the question: How likely are you to recommend this course to others?

The answers to this question are used to calculate a Net Promoter Score (NPS). The NPS calculation is an industry standard and is calculated as follows: The percent of learners who chose 9 and 10, which is considered a promoter score minus the percent of learners who chose 0 through 6, which is considered a detractor. The percent of learners who chose 7 and 8 do not factor into the calculation because they are considered neither promoters nor detractors.

NPS = % Promoter - % Detractors

Use the information in this section to gauge the overall perception of your courses by your learners. Knowing how learners perceive your courses and what they are dissatisfied with can help you understand actions you might want to take to change that perception.

To find out how many learners contributed to the NPS question, you can view the Content Evaluation report.
