Lesson and course analytics in Mindsmith show you how learners are engaging with your content and where improvements can be made. Whether you are reporting to stakeholders, proving ROI, or refining the learner experience, analytics provide the evidence you need to make confident, data-backed decisions.


Where to find analytics

To access analytics for any lesson or course:

  1. Open the content in your workspace.

  2. Click the Analytics button in the top menu toolbar.

You’ll see a live snapshot of learner performance and engagement.

What’s included

Your data is split into two main views: the Results tab and the Engagement tab.

Results tab metrics

The Results tab gives you a high-level overview of overall viewer performance:

  • Unique viewers: Track how many people accessed the content, including a chart of views over the last week.

  • Starts and completions: Measure how far learners progress and view your overall completion rate.

  • Average score: See overall performance across all scored assessment tiles.

Engagement by content tile

The Engagement tab helps you understand exactly how learners move through your content tiles:

  • Percent viewed: Spot where learners drop off in the lesson.

  • Average time: Identify which tiles capture the most attention.

  • Question-level insights: Click into interactive tiles to expand them. You can review answer distributions, common wrong answers, short answer responses, and learner feedback ratings.

Learner-level data

At the bottom of the Results tab, you can view a table of individual learners. Note: Viewing detailed individual learner results requires a Professional plan or higher.

Click View Results next to a learner's name to dive deeper into their personal experience:

  • Confirm their specific score, total attempts, and time to completion.

  • Review exactly how they responded to specific question tiles to support coaching conversations.

  • Click Download Certificate to save a PDF copy of their completion certificate (if certificates are enabled in your settings).


Exporting results

Note: Exporting analytics data requires a Business+ plan.

You can easily download your data to share with stakeholders, archive for compliance, or track results over time. In the top right corner of the analytics window, you can:

  • Click Export PDF to create a polished, shareable report. You can generate a PDF for the Results tab, the Engagement tab, or a specific learner's individual report.

  • Click Export CSV (available from the Results tab) to download a spreadsheet containing learner names, emails, best scores, and attempt counts.
