AI so I can add my own manually or I can

click generate questions so let's click

this and it's going to ask me how many

questions would I like to generate I'm

going to say I want four questions and

I'll hit next now ai is going to analyze

the passage over here on the left and

using forms technology ology it's going

your students just click preview so this

will pop up on the student side how are

you feeling about this assignment and

they can choose whichever one they want

they'll be able to pick a feelings

monster and they'll be able to submit

that and so this is just a preview I'll

close this now what I'm going to do is

push this assignment out by clicking

assign now we're going to switch switch

over to the student and show what it

looks like on his end I'm signed in as

Alex the student and here is my reading

progress assignment let's say that I've

finished it and I'm all done now in the

upper right I'm just going to click turn

in now because there was a reflect

check-in turned on I get this popup so

how you feeling about this assignment

let's say Alex is feeling pretty good

he's feeling motivated he chooses this

feelings monster right here if you've

seen before you can explore lots of

other feelings monsters so in this case

maybe someone's feeling frustrated or

anxious about the homework so this is

really nice and that you can capture all

this information about your students and

how they're feeling about a specific

assignment maybe it's stressed so I will

click submit great now as a student I'm

all done we'll close this now we're

going to speed ahead and pretend that a

couple other folks have turned in their

assignments as well and we're going to

flip back to the educator now I'm signed

back in as the educator and I've

switched over to assignments and here's

that reading progress assignment that

I've made so let's open this up now I

can see some people have not turned it

in but a couple of people have turned it

in and what's really interesting is I

can go to reflect together mode right

here and that's a new option if I click

this I can quickly see how people are

feeling about this assignment in this

case this person is feeling stressed

Alex Wilbur and Ella oh she's feeling

overwhelmed going back to Alex what's

nice that you can see is previous

responses bored optimistic calm and so

imagine when your whole class shows up

here you will get interesting

information about how they're feeling

about that assignment and reflect in

insights can also track this over time

so if you're giving assignments where

people are on the most part feeling

stressed or overwhelmed that's great

feedback that you're getting at your

class or it could just be certain

individuals who are feeling that way and

reflect gives you all that information

what's also nice in this student list

will open up Alex right here reflect is

also integrated over on the right hand

side so here's his reflect check-in it

shows his stress I can even view the

trend in real time so if I click this

here's a nice trend of Alex he's been

both bored and stressed as his top

emotions and you'll be able to see

different mood Trends over time for

specific students the sixth new feature

is the ability to reuse classwork

algebra class that I had set up in the

past and I'll hit next and it has a set

of modules that I've already created I

can select one at a time or I can just

choose all modules and if you have a

really long list you could search as

Focus domains for example if I'm in the

UK I might not want to have these

domains as normal Search terms as I'm

practicing with search coach so I will

edit in class settings and right here

you can see I can add and delete

different institutions so we're going to

hit plus now in the UK for research

institutions they use

ac.uk so I'm going to add that here and

then we'll give it a description those

are UK academic institutions now let's

say I want to delete doov and.edu

because I'm not in the US and I don't

care as much about those so now it's

just going to have this option and I'll

hit save and now we'll hit apply and you

can see ac.uk it's right here for

institutional domains now when students

open this up I can go here to student

view this shows what will the student

see they'll see this experience and when

see ac.uk now for example if I just want

to focus on ac.uk you can see it add

site colon ac.uk and I'm going to give

it a search term Oxford research on

cancer and I just want to look at UK

institutions and I'll hit go and what

the student will see is it's all

filtered by UK you can see the location

there and here are all these

ac.uk research this makes it very easy

to focus on International domains that

you care most about the other nice thing

customize how search coach is going to

look before the assignment is sent out

so if I go into customize search coach

here maybe I want to choose this

background then I go to filters maybe I

want to turn on the fact check button

we'll turn that on and let's say I want

to turn off date range and operators so

I've customized how that bar is going to
