How to manage and view your sessions

K
Written by Kayla George

The Sessions tab in Pencil Spaces gives you a central place to find and review sessions from across the Spaces you have access to.

You can browse past sessions, filter sessions to find a specific lesson, and open individual sessions to view recordings, participant activity, and available insights.

How to access your sessions

To view your sessions:

  1. From your Pencil Spaces homepage, select Sessions from the left-hand navigation menu.

  2. Browse the sessions available to you. Sessions are organized chronologically, with the most recent sessions shown first.

  3. Select a session to open its dedicated session details page.

The sessions you can access depend on your role in Pencil Spaces:

  • Tutor or student: Sessions from Spaces you have access to.

  • Site Admin: Sessions from Spaces within the sites you manage.

  • Institution Admin: Sessions from Spaces across your institution.

How to find a specific session

If you have a lot of sessions to look through, you can use the Sessions filters to narrow down your search results.

You can filter sessions by:

  • Date: Find sessions from a specific date or time period.

  • Space: View sessions from a particular Space.

  • Attendees: Find sessions involving specific participants.

  • Recording availability: Show sessions that have a recording available.

Using these filters can make it easier to find a particular lesson without having to scroll through your entire session history.

How to review a session

Select any session to open its session details page. From here, you can find information about the session in three key tabs:

  • Overview: View key session information and analytics.

  • Recording: Watch and manage available cloud recordings, full session Summaries, and transcripts.

  • Insights: Review detailed session timelines and AI Coaching Insights.

Depending on your permissions and the features available on your plan, you may also be able to share sessions, manage access, copy session links, and download recordings.

Your Overview session details includes information such as:

  • Session duration

  • Hosts and participants

  • When participants joined and left

  • Time spent in the Space and on calls

  • Speaking time

  • Microphone and camera usage

  • Participant engagement and activity

  • Device and network information

Your existing session recordings are also available through Sessions View, so you can use the same place to find both current and historical recordings.
