Teachers and librarians juggle countless responsibilities, and combing through data shouldn’t be one of them. That’s why we’re introducing Benny's Number Cruncher: a brand-new way to uncover quick, actionable reading insights in Beanstack. Now, instead of digging through multiple reports, you can simply select from pre-made questions like “Which students read the most minutes last week?" or “Who has the longest streak?”. Benny will instantly crunch the numbers and show you exactly what you need to know.
This new feature includes:
- Quick Dashboard Access: Your 3 most recently asked questions will appear directly on your Admin Dashboard upon sign-in for easy access.
- Key Student Highlights: Benny also provides a brief AI-generated summary that highlights trends, stand-out readers, and opportunities for extra support.
- Easy Sorting & Filtering: You can filter your data by time period, class, grade, or teacher and sort various parameters in ascending or descending order.
Benny's insights help educators focus their limited time on the students who need it most—whether that means celebrating milestones or offering a little extra encouragement. To learn more about how to use Benny’s Number Cruncher, check out this article.
