Hi
We also have been experiencing problems with statistics (in particular
"Tracking") and have brought this up with Blackboard. We have been told
that there is a "Known Bug" with the "Tracking", therefore it would
appear that any statistics from the tracking facility are unreliable.
We are still waiting to see if there is a fix available for this, but so
far have not heard anything.

Subject: Statistics
I am currently evaluating a course based largely on use of the
discussion
board and want to include some information about access in my report.
Although the patterns of access seem credible (regarding time,
distribution
over the week etc.) and have been checked with students own reporting of
usage the volume of access is grossly exaggerated.
I realise some students may be accessing the area and not actually
contributing but does anyone know the exact explanation, i.e. just how
are
'hits' calculated?
