Class practice defaults

Platform → org → class defaults → single-task configuration priority.

teacher

Audience: Teacher · Applies to: SaaS / private deployment

Goal: Set class defaults to cut repetitive assign work, and understand who overrides whom.

Configuration layers (top → bottom)

LayerWho configuresRole
Platform capabilitiesPlatform / Super adminMaximum modes and capability packs that can open
Org practice policyOrganization adminModes, scenarios, whether self practice is allowed for this org
Class practice defaultsTeacherPrefill for new tasks (overridable per task)
Single taskTeacherFinal effective config for that assignment
Student preferencesStudentMainly free practice with no task; with a task, the task wins

Rule: A lower layer cannot break an upper one. If the org did not enable “speaking exam”, class defaults and tasks cannot pick it. Map: Four configuration layers.

Where in the UI

  1. Teacher app → MeSettingsClass practice settings (pick a class, then edit prefills).
  2. Or open Settings → Practice config (or the org policy summary), then tap Open class practice settings.

Copy follows the UI. If you cannot find the entry, you usually have no teaching classes, or the org has not enabled class-level config.

Suggested order

  1. Confirm with admin that the org opened the practice modes and practice pipelines you need.
  2. In class practice settings, set common scenarios, modes, etc.
  3. Save, then create a task on Tasks and confirm the form is prefilled.
  4. For a one-off different requirement, change only that task’s fields.

How to confirm success

  • After save, you see a success toast such as “Class practice defaults saved”.
  • New tasks bring those default values into the form.
