Usage statistics second half of 2017

Hypocampus is a site for Medical students built on Cortexio.

Hypocampus started second half of 2016 and steadily grew to a little over 1000 users until the turn of the year. After the end of the first half of 2017, we had just over 4,000 users – Medical students, AT doctors, Doctors with overseas European degree, Sub-doctors and Specialist doctors.

The compilation for first half of 2017 can be found here: https://blog.cortexio.se/2017/07/03/usage-statistics-first-half-of-2017/ 

During second half of 2017, the group of medical students grew from 4000 to 6700.

At Hypocampus.se anonymous data is collected to see how the system is used and to be able to improve it. (A session starts each time a user visits the page, and ends when the user has been inactive for a few hours.)

We included data until Jan 2018, when many students have an exam at the autumn term course.

A pleasing difference from VT 2017 (VT=Spring Term, HT=Autumn Term) is that the use is more evenly distributed and not only concentrated to the exam period at the end of the year.

Here is a comparison between spring and autumn 2017:

Here we see a clear trend with more page views before the exam.

Events in Hypocampus are, for example, answering questions. Here we see an even clearer trend of users making the most questions in connection with the exam. And questions are good! https://blog.cortexio.se/2017/03/06/test-enhanced-learning-with-cortexio/
