The Norton Illumine Ebook Analytics Dashboard is an instructor’s go-to hub for actionable insights, taking the guesswork out of student engagement. Displaying both class-wide trends and individual student activity through the Overview, Assignments, and Students tabs, the Analytics Dashboard gives a clear view of how students are interacting with the ebook.
Instructors can see time spent in the ebook, progress on assignments, completion rates, and performance on Check Your Understanding questions and embedded interactive activities. Instructors also have the option to accept late grades or extend Grades Accepted Until assignment dates for entire student sets or individual students.

There are two ways an instructor can access the Analytics Dashboard:
1. Digital Landing Page (DLP): Click the Norton Illumine Ebook tile.
The green “Ebook Analytics” button appears when an instructor selects a student set from the dropdown list.
2. From a Learning Management System (LMS): When an instructor accesses the ebook from the LMS, they will be directed into the ebook. Select the Assignment Overview panel. An “Ebook Analytics” text description will be at the top of the panel with a “view ebook analytics” link.
