Rise & Google Analytics?

Hi Pete - sorry for the delay in responding.  I have been swamped with year end analytical reports.  I track interactivity within Storyline modules using Google Analytics events.  I put simple javascript code on buttons, links, resources, anything I need to track.  This is great for looking at usability of tools and modules and serious games.  Instructional designers put a great deal of time and work into creating online learning and tools, but the only way to see how the users are actually interacting with them is to track the events, unless you are with them watching them every time they use the tool or module. 

I also use Google Data Studio to create dashboards that are always up to date with the analytics reports.  This is also very useful for figuring out what to update based on usability results and activities. 

Most, but not all LMS's track quiz question results.  Our old custom LMS did not.  Therefore, I used Google event tracking for the quiz questions, so we could see how many were correct vs incorrect.  If most are incorrect, we go back and look at the wording of the question and the content pertaining to those questions.  You can send surveys asking your users about a module, game or tool, but IF they respond, it is only based on what they remember at the time.  Tracking real time shows you so much more!

Google event tracking can also show geography if you have a global audience, as well as what devices the content is accessed on.  I could probably write forever on things you could track, measure and recommend based on the analytics!
