What Is The Kiddom Student Experience?
When logging in as a student, you will be taken to your student dashboard, where you can see tiles for each of your classes. Click on a class to enter it and to view your assignments, classroom, announcements, and reports.
The Classroom
The classroom is where you will access assignments your teacher has launched during class (using the Classwork feature). It is also where you will access the class whiteboard if your teacher is actively using it with your class. You can also see which groups you are in by clicking on the "Students" drop-down and selecting "Groups".
Announcements
Your announcements page is where your teacher can let you know important information about the class.
Assignments
The assignments tab shows all assignments that are due and you have submitted. The page is split into a "To Do" list (assignments you haven't completed) and a "Submitted" list (assignments you have completed).
To Do List
The To Do list includes all the assignments that haven't been completed yet. By default, this list will show the assignments from the last 30 days. You can easily change this by using the Settings button next to the list to see all the work that hasn't been submitted. New assignments will be highlighted with a blue banner, while incomplete assignments past their due date will be marked with a red banner.
Tip: If you've recently joined a class or if there are new classes, your assignments page will be empty until your teacher sends you an assignment.
Submitted List
The submitted list shows all the assignments that have been turned in. Assignments that have been graded are indicated by a lovely green banner. When your teacher provides feedback on an assignment, it will be marked with a cheerful yellow banner. Assignments that have not been graded yet do not have a banner.
Notifications
The bell icon at the top of the left-hand toolbar shows you any updates to your assignments, grade notifications, and comments from your teacher. Click on it to see new notifications. This will also allow you to go directly to the assignment by clicking on the assignment name.
How to Complete Assignments
When you open a new assignment from the notification button or through the Assignments page, it will immediately bring you to the first question for you to complete. If the assignment has multiple questions, you can click on a question to work through the assignment one question at a time. Remember to submit when you're finished with the entire assignment by clicking the blue "Submit" button in the upper right corner!
Sometimes teachers will allow you to make changes to your answers on an activity. To do that, navigate back to the assignment, make any changes to your responses, and then click the blue "Resubmit" button.
Grades and Feedback
Once your teacher has graded an assignment, you'll be able to review your scores and feedback by clicking on the assignment from your assignments page. You can also directly access the graded assignment from your notifications button. You will find your teacher's feedback in bright yellow boxes.
Reports
The Reports page will show you your progress throughout the class. You will find data about how well you are doing overall as well as on specific skills. For more information about this page, please check out this article.
