usage comparisons from different schools
I would like to see what other schools are getting for usage rates if you could post that up here. This is our second fall semester after going live, and we are trying to get a benchmark to see where we are at and where other schools are.
What I'm looking to compare (based on September's counts):
Daily:
Percentage of enrolled students logging in daily: around 11%
Percentage of faculty logging in daily: around 10%
Percentage of staff logging in daily: around 4%
Monthly:
Percentage of enrolled students logging in monthly: 43%
Percentage of faculty logging in monthly: 85%
Percentage of staff logging in monthly: 40%
Also, we don't force the students into the portal, everything that they can get to from the portal, they can get to outside it as well (because of past performance issues). Please note if your system is optional or required for users.
rough usage...
I'm working on gathering these stats as well for the university. We're seeing among students and faculty around
85%of the population logging in on any given day. Employees would be less.Traffic to the portal is mostly driven by student tools (Vista, My Courses) and our email SSO.
Oops, I was double counting. Ok, for example, yesterday we had 92,000 logins, of which 32,500 were unique userids.
Of those, about 24,000 are active students (of about 38,000).
