Batch Feedback Insights: See Classwide Patterns at a Glance

January 15, 2026

Batch Feedback Insights adds a new way for teachers to understand patterns across student work.


After feedback is generated, Brisk summarizes classwide strengths, growth areas, and — when rubric scoring is used — performance trends, so teachers can decide what to do next without opening every document.

How it works

  1. Run Batch Feedback on a set of student submissions.
  2. Reopen the assignment after Batch Feedback has been run.
  1. View the Insights Summary panel on the right to see class-level patterns based on the feedback.

What teachers can see

Class-wide insights from feedback

When no rubric is attached, Brisk analyzes the feedback generated and surfaces general feedback themes across the class. Teachers see high-level strengths and growth areas drawn directly from the feedback — without reviewing individual submissions.

Go deeper when needed

Select See More on any insight to open a detailed view with expanded strengths, growth areas, and options to generate next steps — all without leaving the assignment.

Teachers can click through each section of the expanded view to review patterns in more detail.

Rubric-aligned insights (when a rubric is used)

When a rubric is attached, insights are organized by rubric criteria, showing strengths and growth areas for each skill or standard.

Score distribution for rubric scoring

For assignments using rubric scoring, teachers also see a score distribution to quickly understand overall performance across the class.

Turn insights into action

From the Insights Summary or any detailed view, teachers can generate Next Recommendations tied directly to the patterns they’re seeing — making it easier to plan follow-up instruction, reteaching, or enrichment.

Once recommendations are generated, teachers can:

  • Refine materials using Brisk Next chat
  • Edit individual activities
  • Build a bundle of teaching materials to share with students from the Brisk Next page

Batch Feedback Insights transforms feedback into instructional insight. Teachers can see classwide strengths, growth areas, and rubric trends — then generate next steps to support learning, all from Brisk.

Boost School Hours: Manage When Students Can Engage with Boost

January 9, 2026

Manage when students can engage with Boost — based on your district’s expectations for safe, supervised AI use.

Boost School Hours gives district administrators control over when students can engage with Boost. Admins can navigate to the Admin Dashboard to set a timezone and enable or disable specific days and hours, ensuring Boost is available only during approved windows.

Outside of designated School Hours, Boost student activity is automatically paused.

What Admins Can Do

  • Define when Boost is accessible for students
  • Set access by day and time, aligned to school schedules
  • Apply settings district-wide with consistent expectations
  • Align Boost use with times when adults are available or aware

For example, an admin can fully turn off weekend Boost usage by toggling Saturday and Sunday off.
