How can I test Tasks & Assessments myself?
To help you to ensure that the activities you're planning on running go smoothly, Education Perfect has the option for you to test work yourself before assigning it to your students.

Assigning to the Staff class
First, you'll need to assign a Task or Assessment to the Staff class. This will allow you to set the work up the way you want it, without your students being able to access it.
Start by navigating to either the Tasks or Assessments section and clicking + Assign.
In these steps, we'll use Tasks as an example, but the same steps also apply to Assessments.
Select the type of lesson you'd like to assign. Next, select the Staff class under Select classes and students and set up the Task as you would for your students.
At this time, you are unable to select specific teachers within the Staff Class.
For more information on setting up a Task, check out our guide.
Navigating to the Student Zone
Once you've assigned it, click your initials in the top right-hand corner.
Select Student Zone. This will take you to the Student Zone, which is what your students see when they log in.
Click the Tasks & Assessments tab at the top of the page.
If you have tasks assigned to your classes, they'll also show up on this page. Scroll down and look for the work you just assigned, or use the search box.
Click on it to try it out and work through the lesson as a student would.
Reassigning the Task to your students
If you're happy with the task, you can copy it over to your students. To do this, head back to the Teacher Zone. Navigate back to the task in the Tasks tab and click Make a Copy.
Under the Select classes and students section, untick the Staff class and click on the class(es) that you'd like to assign the work to.
Once you've done that, you'll be prompted to edit any settings you wish. When you're happy, click Assign to assign the Task.
