How Assignment First Mode Works
When Assignment First Mode is turned on:
Students are required to complete all teacher-assigned lessons first, in the From My Teacher section of their Student Dashboard.
Student Adaptive Pathways (My Quests) are locked until all assigned activities are completed.
Once assignments are finished, students can then access their My Quests section.
** Assignment First Mode is automatically turned on in ALL teacher accounts. **
Why Use Assignment First Mode?
Assignment First Mode is especially helpful when teachers want to:
