Pareto Principle (80:20)

Pareto Principle in MLP Analytics

The Pareto Principle, applied in MLP Analytics, allows teachers to focus on the most critical areas where students face challenges. By identifying the 20% of questions causing 80% of errors, teachers can refine their teaching strategies to address these pain points effectively.

Steps to Access Pareto Principle Analytics

1. Locate the MLP Analytics Option

   • Click on the 3 dots below the action column of the specific MLP.

   • Select Analytics from the dropdown menu. (OR)

   

   • Click on the orange icon under the 80:20 tab for the particular MLP.

2. View MLP Analytics Page

   • The MLP Analytics page will open, displaying a graph.

   
3. Understand the Graph

   • The y-axis shows the number of students who answered a question incorrectly.

   • The x-axis lists the question numbers in descending order based on the number of incorrect responses.

   • Click on the graph line to view the exact number of students who answered a particular question incorrectly.

   
4. Analyze Question Details

   • Scroll down to see a detailed list of questions from the MLP.

   • Beside each question, a fraction will indicate performance:

     • Numerator: Number of students who answered incorrectly.

     • Denominator: Total number of students who attempted the question.

   • Example: If "Q1" shows 1/2, it means 1 student out of 2 answered the question incorrectly.

   

Benefits of the Pareto Principle in MLP Analytics

• Focus on Critical Errors: Prioritize questions with the highest number of incorrect responses.

• Refined Teaching: Adjust instructional methods to address common misconceptions.

• Enhanced Student Learning: Targeted interventions to improve knowledge in weaker areas.
