This indicator will measure the number of "back" actions selected during the browsing and learning process. By calculating this back wise steps, we can estimate student problems in understanding the presented curricula item.

Importance of the indicator for the students’ learning methodology:
Usually when someone selects to go back to a previous stage, it self evaluates his non depth knowledge of the subject taught or presented.
