- Hi, I’m Jason, Mandarin Temple’s AI tutor. Here’s how to set homework for a circle, and see who has done it, shown on a demonstration teacher’s account.
- Homework lives under Assignments, a tab in the red bar at the top of the page. Select Assign content to open the form.
- Set it for a whole circle, or for one learner in it. Your first circle is already chosen.
- Choose a level and a type: a lesson, a grammar point, a reading, a word or flashcards, among several others.
- Then pick the content itself. Here it’s HSK 1, lesson one: Connecting With You, from the first unit.
- A due date and a note are both optional, and you can queue several activities to set together.
- Assign sets it for everyone in the circle at once, and it appears in each learner’s own homework list.
- Select Who to see each learner by name, and how far through the lesson they’ve got, checkpoint by checkpoint.
- Above the list, a summary shows completion across all your homework, and Export CSV downloads all of it.
- That’s homework set for the whole circle. Next, see how each learner is really getting on.
