from v$session order by username
where status = 'ACTIVE'
Try this instead of select * from

To get 'what' they are doing and when, you need to turn on auditing.
V$session will tell you who is currently logged in but not a history of who was logged in over time.
You can also look in the listener log file to see who has been connecting.

I find that having status='ACTIVE' actually filters out some users who are online but are currently not running anything.
This is what I use:
select a.username, b.sql_text, a.status
from v$session a, v$sqlarea b
where a.sql_address = b.address(+)
and a.username is not null;
