What's New in Brisk Boost Student Extension

March 9, 2026

We've been listening — and building. This update brings meaningful improvements to Brisk Boost and your content organization tools, making Brisk more powerful for teachers and more seamless for students.

Assignments in Brisk Boost: Teachers can now create Assignments in Brisk on the web for their classes. Once set up, assignments are instantly accessible to students in the Brisk Chrome Extension. Each assignment has its own title, optional rubric (PDF or DOCX), and visibility settings — so teachers are no longer limited to a single rubric per class.

How Assignments work:

Step 1: Create an Assignment. In Brisk on the web, navigate to your class and open the student roster. Click Create Assignment, give it a title, set visibility, and optionally upload a rubric.

Step 2: Manage your Assignments. All assignments for a class live in one place. See which rubric is attached, whether an assignment is visible to students, and when it was last updated — with the option to add more at any time.

Step 3: Review submissions and class-wide insights. Teachers get an assignment-level view of all submissions, with an AI-generated Insights Summary that surfaces common themes and struggles across the class — without having to open every student's document.

Step 4: See feedback in action. Clicking into a student's submission opens their Google Doc with the Brisk Boost feedback sidebar. Inline comments are organized by feedback category, and students can mark each one as Agreed, Disagreed, or Unresolved — making engagement with feedback visible at a glance.

Step 5: Verify the writing process. Teachers can access a version-history replay of any student's document — tracking edits, paste events, and active composition time. Step through changes at up to 60x speed to better understand student writing processes and verify academic integrity.

Step 6: Students request Targeted Feedback. When students open the Brisk Chrome Extension, they select their class and assignment. If a rubric is attached, it loads automatically — no extra steps needed. Students click "Give me feedback" and receive AI-generated comments grounded in the exact criteria being used for grading.

Boost Whiteboard — A New Way to See Student Thinking

January 29, 2026

Boost Whiteboard gives students a visual space to work through ideas, explain reasoning, and demonstrate understanding. 

Teachers can see how students are thinking, and students can get support as they work.

How Boost Whiteboard works

Step 1: Create a Boost activity

Create a Boost activity using Quick Create at app.briskteaching.com or the Boost Activity button from the Brisk extension.

Step 2: Set up your Boost Whiteboard

Select Whiteboard as the activity type, then enter your prompt and choose standards, grade level, and language. Brisk handles the setup so your activity is ready to use right away.

Step 3: Review and customize your Whiteboard

Brisk generates questions designed specifically for whiteboard responses. These prompts encourage students to draw, label, organize ideas, and show their thinking visually.

Step 4: Edit Template if needed

Use Edit Template to adjust the whiteboard students will receive. Upload images, add visual elements, or refine the question so expectations are clear and aligned to your lesson.

Step 5: Share the activity with students

When you’re ready, share the activity with your class. Use Share Activity with Students to send the activity link, or copy the student link to post in your LMS or class workspace. Students can open the activity and begin working right away.

Step 6: Students show their work and get feedback

Students draw, label, and explain their thinking directly on the Whiteboard. When they’re ready, they use Check Work to submit their whiteboard for feedback from Brisk Boost. Feedback highlights what’s correct and helps students see where they may need to revise, so learning continues as they work.

Step 7: Students can get in the moment support

Students can use Get Help to clarify ideas or get help with next steps when questions come up.

Step 8: Review student work and see classwide insights

Teachers can review student whiteboards in one place. Brisk surfaces classwide patterns across student work — showing what students understand, where they may need more support, and what to teach next.

*Multi-questions are available for S&D only

Curriculum Intelligence — AI Grounded in Your Curriculum

January 22, 2026

Curriculum Intelligence embeds your adopted curriculum directly into Brisk. By grounding AI in your district’s materials, standards, and pacing, Brisk ensures ideas, supports, and next steps stay aligned to what you actually teach.

Until now, AI use often lived in pockets –– one teacher spending time to engineer something powerful while others never saw it, and districts unable to see what was working or scale it. Curriculum Intelligence replaces that ad hoc use with a shared, trusted approach embedded where teaching happens.

New with Curriculum Intelligence:

  • Curriculum-aware AI grounded in your materials, scope, and sequence
  • Aligned support by default, not one-off prompts or disconnected tools
  • District-ready guardrails for visibility, alignment, and privacy
  • Teacher flexibility preserved, with the ability to adjust and keep their voice

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.
