How to Use Insights and Reactions

Save this page to your Edmodo Library

We know many schools are driven by data; you can now access your group level analytics to get a clear view of your students’ progress. Reactions allow your students to provide immediate qualitative insights.  For example, your student can let you know when a question is too hard, or you can provide some encouragement to students .  The insights page compiles these reactions to provide a quick pulse of the group through aggregate reactions.

How to Instruct Students to React to a Post

  1. Click the reaction icon  at the bottom of the post
  2. Once a student reacts to a post, he can change the reaction, but cannot remove it.

Note: Students have the option to react to a teacher’s post or a classmate’s post. Students are required to react to an assignment or quiz.

How to Instruct Students to React to an Assignment

  1. Before a student can submit an assignment, he/she is required to react.
  2. As the teacher grades, he/she must give a reaction before he/she can see the student’s reaction.
  3. Once graded the student can see his own reaction, the teacher’s reaction, the grade, and any comments from the assignment page.

How to View Reactions

  1. View your post and click on the “reaction” icon  under the post.
  2. Teachers can view the number of times each reaction has been chosen, their reaction, and individual student reactions.

Note: Students can view their own reaction, their teacher’s reactions, and the number of times each reaction has been chosen.
