How can I assign a unit check to my students?

In this article, we'll cover two ways to assign a unit check to your student.

Unit checks help you monitor your students' progress at regular intervals. The results show you where your students need more practice so you can help them progress.

There is a unit check at the end of each unit of the A1 - C1 step-by-step curriculum that revises all the material from the lessons in that unit. For the A1 level, there are  3 lessons in each unit. For A2-C1, there are 4 lessons in each unit. It's best to teach and assign the homework for each lesson in the unit before assigning the unit check.

You are prompted to assign this assessment when closing the classroom at the end of the last lesson of each unit

1. Check the boxes to assign both the homework and the assessment (checked by default)
2. Assign a due date if you wish (if you do, your students will lose access to the assignment after this date).
3. Assign Selected Items.

A second way to assign the unit check is from the student's page in the Student Management Panel. Click the student's name, then the Assessment tab

Here you can see - 

1. Unit check number
2. Lesson status (this student hasn't been enrolled in all lessons and assigned the homework)
3. A tick if the assessment has been assigned (none here)
4. The auto-generated score, immediately available to you and the student (none here)
5. Click to see a preview of the unit check

Click the + in the action column, to assign the assessment

Click 'Assign Assessment'

Although we suggest first teaching and assigning homework from all the lessons in a unit before assigning the unit check, this is up to you as the teacher. If you feel the student already has an understanding of the lesson content, you're free to assign the assessments ad hoc. In this case, follow the second method described above.
