Assignments can only be set by the teacher of a classroom the student is enrolled in. A student can be given one of these three assignments in Reflex:

Students may only have one assignment in Reflex at a time. When a child reaches 100% fluency in an assignment, they should be moved to the next assignment.

While Reflex restricts students to one active assignment at a time, this assignment progress is maintained on the student account across classrooms and through the rostering process.

If you are confused about where a student should start, please see our article: What assignment is appropriate for a student?

If you wish for a student to work in more than one assignment simultaneously (for instance, work on both addition and subtraction and multiplication and division at the same time), a second account and student ID must be created for that student so they can be enrolled twice in Reflex with two different assignments.

When students are enrolled in a class in Reflex, they can all be given the same Default Assignment using the Add New Class command. Or, if entering students individually, use the Assignment drop down to give each student their assignment.

When a student achieves 100% fluency in an assignment in Reflex, the student is ready to move to a new assignment. They can continue to use Reflex for practice and still accumulate coins from Green light sessions.

In the Manage Students tab under the Assignment heading, you can find the current assignment for the student. Select the dropdown list and choose the new assignment for the student. Once selected, you will receive a warning that changing the assignment could lead to a loss of data.

Switching operations twice; such as from Addition and Subtraction to Multiplication and Division and then back again, will result in a loss of data from the original assignment. Data will stay intact only if you switch the assignment once.

If the assignment change is within the same Assignment Group, such as changing Multiplication and Division 0 – 10 to Multiplication and Division 0 – 12, all of the student's usage, milestone, and fluency data will be retained. In addition, the student's current tokens, avatar appearance, state of the Progress Tree, and store purchases will also be kept.

If the assignment change is to a different Assignment Group, such as Addition and Subtraction 0 – 10 to Multiplication and Division 0 – 10 or Multiplication and Division 0 – 12, that student's usage, milestones, and fluency data from the old assignment or assignment group will NOT be retained. The Progress Tree will reset to its initial setting (as an acorn) since the student has not yet made any progress in the new assignment. However, the student's current tokens, avatar appearance, and store purchases will be kept, and any purchases made for the Progress Tree will reappear once the tree is big enough to support the items again.

Reflex is built with a focus on preserving individual student progress under various operational changes. Whether you're creating or linking new accounts during the rostering process or adjusting classes for competitions, you can rest assured that your students' progress remains secure.

If you need to create or link a new rostered teacher account, your students’ existing Reflex progress will not be lost. Reflex links progress to each student's individual account rather than their teacher or class assignments, ensuring a seamless continuation of activities. Ensure that students remain assigned to the same Reflex activities they were previously working on to avoid interruptions.

When organizing teams for a Reflex competition by creating additional classes, student progress remains completely unaffected. Reflex ties progress to the student’s account, not to any specific class. This allows easy reorganization without any risk of losing student progress.

In Reflex, student progress is preserved regardless of changes to accounts, assignments, or class structure. This ensures an uninterrupted and consistent learning experience for students.
