monitor
~ to watch continuously over time = monitor progress, monitor performance, monitor development

examine
~ to look at something closely or in detail = examine evidence, examine results, examine student work

inspect
~ to look at something carefully for problems or details = inspect data, inspect assignments, inspect samples

analyze
~ to study something by breaking it into parts = analyze patterns, analyze responses, analyze learning outcomes

assess
~ to evaluate or judge the quality of something = assess understanding, assess skills, assess progress

track
~ to follow changes or development over time = track improvement, track attendance, track learning trends

survey
~ to gather and observe information from many sources = survey students, survey attitudes, survey participants

investigate
~ to study a phenomenon systematically = investigate causes, investigate behavior, investigate performance

We surveyed the students, and by inspecting and analyzing the data we found a direct relationship between the two investigated factors. Observing the behavior of individuals with A suggests a causal link to the detected patterns in their tracked history. After scrutinizing the data, we assessed their performance and identified their key mistakes.
