Two editors, one workflow. Automarked homework works in both the New editor (Early Access) and the Legacy editor. In the New editor, the auto-marker reads the surrounding page content when grading long-answer questions, so "refer to the passage above" or "use the diagram" questions get graded with the right context. The screenshots below show the Legacy editor flow.

Marking takes up a ton of time as an educator. Also giving personalised feedback is super challenging to do when you have many students. In this guide we'll show you how to use AI to create auto-marked homework that gives detailed personalised feedback to each student.

1. Click the create classwork button

2. This will show you a list where you can select homework.

3. Once you select homework, you need to specify a pathway that you're putting the homework inside of. On Mindjoy all homework sits inside of pathways. This helps you as an educator organise your classwork and helps students find their work.

4. For Mindjoy to generate your homework, upload content from a textbook chapter, lesson notes or any documents containing the lesson objectives you are trying to teach your students.

5. You can add additional instructions to inform how your homework will be generated.

6. Click "Create Classwork".

7. Your homework will take around 1-3 minutes to generate.

8. Once the homework has finished generating, click on it.

9. You'll see a bunch of different blocks, some content, some questions. Most of the questions will be Free Response Questions with a mark scheme. AI will use the mark scheme to auto mark student answers.

10. Feel free to edit any of these questions or text blocks.

11. Preview the questions and make sure that when students answer them, you're happy with the feedback given.

12. Try submitting an answer as if you were a student. Click submit and you'll see the result of the AI marking.

13. One important option to highlight is that you can select a tutor so that the student has an AI chat helping them while going through the work. If you want them doing it on their own then don't select a tutor.

14. If you'd like to see how students view the homework, click "Preview".

15. Once happy with your new homework, you need to assign it to a classroom. Click "Assign".

16. Click the classroom you'd like to assign your homework to. You can also add a due date when assigning it to the classroom.

17. Click "Save".

18. Reminder: Click the "Students" tab and make sure you have students in the classroom, or no one will be completing the homework anytime soon.

19. Once some of your students have submitted their work, click on "Submissions" to see how they're all doing. You'll see the number of students completed, the class average and how each student did.

When you build automarked homework in the New editor, the auto-marker reads everything that comes before each long-answer question on the same page: text, images, tables, callouts and earlier question prompts. That means contextual questions like "refer to the passage above" or "use the worked example to..." are graded with the full picture, not in isolation.
