Rostered Classes
If your district or school is syncing roster data with Brisk, your classes will be automatically populated — no manual setup needed. A few things to know:
- Student data syncs nightly, so new students will appear in your classes automatically.
- Manual edits made to roster classes may be overwritten during overnight refreshes.
Creating a Class
If your district or school has not rostered classroom data, or you'd like to set up your own groups, you can easily create your own classes.
-
Click the Home icon from your Brisk Extension to navigate to Brisk Next.
-
Click your initials in the upper right corner and select "Manage Classes".
-
Click the three dots in the upper-right corner of your class list and select "Create new class".
- Enter your class name and save your group. You can now share the class with students!

💡 You can also create a new class while setting up Boost Activities. |
Adding Students to a Class
Students will need to join your class for you to see their progress.
Boost Activity
Copy the activity link and share it with students wherever you usually post assignments. Once they access your activity, they will be added to your class.
Boost Student Extension
Navigate to the Manage Classes page, and click the three dots next to your class. Select "Copy Class Code" and share that link wherever you normally share assignments. Once students join with that code and access the student extension, they will be added to your class.
Managing Class Settings
When you select "Edit Class" rom the Manage Classes page, you can also configure a few key settings for students within that class.
🔐 Student Login Method Choose how students sign in when joining a Boost Activity:
- Email Login — Students log in once and can access future activities and revisit past work from any device.
- Name Only Login — Students just enter their name to get started. They'll need to stay on the same device to return to in-progress activities.
📋 Rubric Optionally upload a rubric to your class. When a rubric is attached, Brisk will use it to guide AI feedback on student work, and students will see it when requesting feedback.
- You can only upload one rubric per class at a time.
- If you'd like students to receive feedback across multiple assignments without a single rubric anchoring all responses, leave this field empty — students can upload their own rubric or include instructions in their prompt instead.
👩💻Student Extension (Brisk Boost) The Student Extension Enabled checkbox controls whether students in this class can use the Brisk Boost student extension. Unchecking this disables the extension for those students.
⚠️ Note: This setting affects students across all classes, not just the one you're editing. Other teachers may also re-enable Boost for your students.
