What is an Assignment in Shoelace?
Shoelace Assignments are predefined collections of passages and questions. When you give your players an assignment, the assignment content is given priority over the learning engine, ensuring that your players will complete it first. Unlike the placement test, players will be made aware they are in an assignment with the presence of a progress bar in the question/passage window.
Assignments are a great way to have your class focus on a specific skill or genre or even prepare for testing season. With over 600 assignments hand crafted by educators, you’re sure to find one that will meet your needs.
