A Unit Overview Report allows you to create a Scope and Sequence with a side-by-side comparison of sequential unit titles for selected courses. You might use this to compare unit sequencing across multiple courses or classes, such as exploring if all four Grade 6 Math courses are covering topics at approximately the same time.
