Reading sessions can be accessed and reviewed by school staff on the admin view of their Beanstack site.
Note: Media specialists plus may view sessions from all students at their school, whereas teachers can only view sessions from students rostered to them.
You can currently review two kinds of sessions:
Engagement Sessions
When students finish a title in a Benny-enabled challenge, Benny initiates an open-ended conversation about the book they read. Afterward, school staff can review these Book Talks with Benny by following these steps:
- Navigate to Classes and Readers > Students > Sessions for Review.
- Go to the “Engagement Sessions” tab.
- From here, use the dropdown filters to display the sessions relevant to you.
- To view reading engagement insights for a single session, either click the book title in the “Title” column or click the three dots, followed by “View Entry.”
- This will bring up a detailed summary of a student’s Book Talk, that includes the actual conversation as well as a breakdown of red and green flags that occurred. For more information on these flags, check out this article.
You can also download your session data as a CSV by clicking the download icon near the top left.
Flagged Sessions
When an unverified student’s logged reading exceeds the limits set by the school, the session is flagged for later review. To find these flagged entries:
- Navigate to Classes and Readers > Students > Sessions for Review.
- Go to the “Flagged Sessions” tab.
- Use the dropdown filters to display the sessions relevant to you.
- To view reading engagement insights for a single session, either click the book title in the “Title” column or click the three dots, followed by “View Entry.”
You can also download your session data as a CSV by clicking the download icon near the top left.
If you want to see engagement sessions or flagged sessions for a single student, you can either:
- Change the “List By” dropdown to “By Reader,” click the three dots option to the right of the student’s name and select “View All.”
- Search for them on “Classes and Readers” and go to their “Sessions for Review” tab.
