How do I view the Mastery Paths range breakdown results for an assignment?

Once students complete a Mastery Paths source item, you can view the breakdown of the mastery path ranges in the item. Each range includes a link that shows the number of students who scored in each range. You can view a specific student’s score for the Mastery Path source item, view the student's submission, view the student's conditional content assignments, and send a message to the student.

Notes:

The Mastery Paths setting can be managed in your course if the setting has been enabled by your institution.
Files, External URLs, and External Tool module items cannot be used as conditional items in Mastery Paths.
If your course has a large number of students and/or if a Mastery Path has a large number of associated conditional items, students may experience a delay before they are assigned a path.
You cannot access mastery paths breakdown results from New Quizzes.
