Assignments

Assignments let teachers set tasks, invite students, and review their work with AI assistance. Students complete assignments and get feedback based on your rubrics.

Assignments bring together creation, delivery, and grading in one place. Whether you need a quick quiz or a speaking assessment, the workflow is the same: create, invite, review.

Assignment types

Three types are available in New assignment today:

• Quiz — HKDSE-aligned quizzes with multiple choice, open response, fill-in-the-blank, diagram labelling, whiteboard / draw, and more.
• Speaking practice — a prompt (with optional reading material) that students answer by recording audio, graded against a rubric.
• Book report — students report on a book by essay or AI conversation, scored on plot, characters, themes, and reflection.

Create an assignment (teachers only)

Students do not see a New assignment button — only teachers create tasks.

1. Click Assignments in the sidebar (or Menu → Assignments on mobile).
2. Click New assignment.
3. Pick Quiz, Speaking practice, or Book report.
4. Fill in the details and either Generate with AI or Start from empty.

Review modes

Review mode controls how much AI grading happens before students see their results.

For each assignment you choose how grading works (labels in settings):

• AI only — AI grades; optionally auto-release results.
• AI then teacher — AI drafts feedback; you approve before release.
• Teacher only — you grade manually, no AI pass.

List view vs deadline view

Switch view mode at the top of the assignments directory:

Deadline view groups by exact due date (not broad “this week” buckets) — ideal when you are juggling many dates at once.

Scope tabs

Tabs differ by role:

Teachers: All · Mine · Drafts

Students: All · Completed

Sort by recent, title, or due date. Archive an assignment from the row actions menu — it is not a separate filter tab. You can also rename, duplicate, or delete from the same menu.

Co-teachers

Assignment owners can invite co-teachers with view or edit access:

1. Open an assignment → Invite (or the share menu).
2. Choose Co-teachers.
3. Search for teachers at your school and add them.

Co-teachers can help review submissions without transferring ownership.

Link to a Classroom

From a Classroom → Assignment tab, teachers can link existing assignments so students find them inside that class. Linked assignments become Managed by classroom: the classroom roster (and co-teachers) control access, and share-code self-join is blocked. Due dates and grading settings still live on the assignment. Create the assignment first, then link it from the classroom resources tab.

Linking overrides the assignment's previous invite / access list — see Members & linked resources.
