Hi @JamesRong,

You may want to reach out to one of your local Canvas administrators (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas) to ask about the permissions they have setup on your Canvas instance for the role you have in that course. You generally won't be able to adjust Canvas permissions yourself, and it seems likely that analytics are disabled for some reason (the guide you linked even mentions it's a permission).

The only other possibility I can think of is that your institution enabled New Analytics, which would slightly change the name of the button, but I imagine you could have seen and clicked that anyways.

Hope this helps a bit!

Good morning, @JamesRong ...

Just to add to what @chriscas has said, New Analytics is a Feature Option that can be toggled on/off at the Canvas account level. When you go to your Feature Options screen at the account level, you'll want to scroll down to the heading "Course" and then look for the option "New Course and User Analytics". There are essentially four "states" that you can turn this feature on/off:

Enabled -- This means it is enabled at the course level by default, but instructors can turn it off per course if they want.
Enabled and Lock -- This means it is enabled at the course level by default, and instructors do not have the ability to turn it off per course.
Disabled -- This means it is disabled at the course level by default, but instructors can turn it on per course if they want.
Disabled and Lock -- This means it is disabled at the course level by default, and instructors have the ability to turn it on per course.

I hope this will also be of some help to you!

New Speedgrader UI Showing Student Names
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled.
