Student: from To-do to practice to Records

Example student daily workflow and success criteria.

practicesstudent

Audience: Students · Applies to: SaaS / private

Goal: Walk one daily path—“have a task → finish practice → can review”—and open links for detailed clicks.

Scenario example

Monday open the App; Speaking → To-do shows the teacher’s “Japanese self-introduction” → open the matching practice surface and finish one round → see feedback under Records → if the mic misbehaves, self-check first, then ask the teacher.

Textbook path example: After the teacher publishes with Assign from textbook → open the task from Space (or Speaking to-do) → read materials on the lesson page → Start speaking practice → review under Records. See Space: learn textbook lessons from tasks.

Workflow steps

Review (optional)Retake oral placement after a while; compare band / sub-scoresScenario: oral placement and practice loop · Me → Oral placement
Messages / NotificationsCheck under MeMessages and notifications
When stuckMic, network, stuck troubleshootingPractice troubleshooting

Suggested rhythm: finish homework to-dos first; if none and the org allows, start in Self practice. For a placement ↔ practice loop, start with Oral placement or see Scenario: oral placement and practice loop.

Success criteria

  • To-do becomes done (or in progress then ends cleanly).
  • Records shows this practice result.
  • Appearance / language preferences can be adjusted as needed—see App settings.

Common blockers (who to ask)

SymptomSuggestion
No to-dosAsk the teacher if published; or confirm identity / org
Practice entry unavailableOrg may not allow it, or trial limits—ask teacher or Organization admin
Want to change assignment rulesYou cannot; when a task exists, the teacher’s task wins—see L2 / L3
