After your class completes an exam or quiz, Blackboard provides you with a robust reporting system for you to analyze how your students performed question-by-question. This feature is called “Question Analysis.”

Question analysis provides statistics on overall performance, assessment quality, and individual questions. This data helps you recognize questions that might be poor discriminators of student performance. Question analysis is for assessments with questions. You can run a report before all submissions are in if you want to check the quality of your questions and make changes.

Uses for question analysis:

  • Improve questions for future assessments or adjust credit on current attempts
  • Discuss assessment results with your class
  • Provide a basis for remedial work
  • Improve classroom instruction

There are multiple ways to access Question Analysis. One way is from the assessment menu.

  1. Navigate to your course
  2. Click on the three dots (…) to the right of your test link. Click Question Analysis.
    Click on the three dots and Select Question Analysis
