The Course Insights filter can assist course coordinators with identifying students who are yet to engage with the online materials (Learn.UQ or Learn X course). The filtered list of students can then be contacted to provide additional instructions or support (nudges). 

This should be done early in the semester, preferably at the end of Week 1 and 2, to make sure all students in a course are aware of the course structure and navigation.
