Overview
The Lesson Versions Dashboard shows you how a specific lesson has performed across every version that has been published. It helps you see whether changes you made to a lesson are actually improving learner performance over time.
How to Access It
From the Lessons Dashboard, select the name of any lesson. This opens the Lesson Versions Dashboard for that lesson.
To return to the Lessons Dashboard, select Lessons Dashboard in the breadcrumb trail at the top of the page.
Version Row Actions
Each version row has a three-dot menu with two options.
View opens that specific version of the lesson in the Lesson Builder. This is useful when you want to see exactly what the lesson looked like at that point in time.
Preview lets you preview that version of the lesson as a learner would experience it. When you select Preview, you can choose which mode to preview: Walkthrough, Practice, or Knowledge Check. This is helpful when you want to understand what instructions or interactions a learner was seeing during a period of high errors.
What You Will See
The Lesson Versions Dashboard works the same way as the Lessons Dashboard, but each row represents a published version of the lesson instead of a different lesson. The most recent version appears at the top, with older versions listed below.
Each row shows the same information you are used to seeing: Total Incorrect, Total Attempts, and a color-coded cell for each step.
Understanding Version Numbers
Every time a lesson is published, Skyllful assigns it a new version number. Version 1 is the first time the lesson was published. Each update and republish creates the next version in the sequence.
Older versions may show "--" for steps that did not exist in that version. This is normal and reflects the fact that steps may have been added as the lesson was updated over time.
How to Use This Data
The Lesson Versions Dashboard is most useful when you want to know whether a content update made a difference. If a step was red in an older version and is now green in the current version, that is a sign your update worked. If the error rate stayed high or got worse after a change, the step may need further attention.
You can also use this view to understand the history of a lesson. A version with high Total Attempts and high Total Incorrect may point to a period when learners consistently struggled, which can help you trace the root cause of a content problem.
Filtering Options
The Lesson Versions Dashboard includes the same View By Mode and View As controls as the main Lessons Dashboard. You can also use the Filter By dropdown to narrow the data by category, and the Search field to find a specific version by number.
Note that the View Lesson Data For control (All-Time vs. Published Version Only) is not available on this page, as the data is already organized by version.
What's Next
When you find a specific step worth investigating within a version, you can open the Heatmap Viewer to see exactly where learners are tapping on the screen. See Using the Heatmap Viewer for details.
