My overview page

A personal page where every learner sees all lessons assigned to them.

Every learner in your register has a personal My overview page. It shows the lessons you assigned to them — with Share or through a sequence — and how far they are with each. It's made for phones: open, tap, learn.

What learners see

The page is made like a phone app: a coloured header band in your style's title card colours with your logo (the version for dark backgrounds when the band is dark) and the learner's initials on the right, and a tab bar at the bottom with Home, Lessons, Leaderboard (only when the leaderboard is on) and Profile. Tapping the initials opens Profile. On a computer the page is shown as a phone-sized card with the tab bar at its bottom. All colours come from your account's default style, so the page matches your brand in light and dark styles alike.

Home

  • Greeting — Good morning, Good afternoon or Good evening with the learner's first name (by the time in your account's time zone). Below it, when a sequence will send them their next lesson, the date and time (Next lesson: …).
  • Points and streak in one card, with gamification on.
  • Keep going — one lesson to do now, on a card in your style's button colour: the unfinished lesson with the nearest deadline (or past it), otherwise the one they worked on most recently, otherwise the lesson that has waited the longest. Labels on top show its length and the deadline; if the lesson is part of a challenge, also which one it is (Lesson 2 of 3 · 1 min). The bar shows how far they are in the lesson (or, before they start, in the challenge). A big Start lesson or Continue button opens it.
  • Challenge — with a challenge running, its card is right below Keep going. If there's no lesson to do right now, the challenge card is at the top.

On Home, the greeting sits in the header band and the Points and Streak card overlaps its lower edge. On their first visit with gamification on, learners see a short card under it that lists what they can earn — only the parts you turned on. Got it hides it for good in that browser. How it works (also next to Badges in Profile and in every badge's detail) explains the rules: what earns points, how the streak counts working days, what badges and challenges are and how the leaderboard works.

Lessons

  • In progress — started lessons with how much is done. Lessons with a deadline show it as a label (due Friday 7 November, past due): orange when the deadline is today or close, red when it has passed.
  • Not started — assigned lessons they haven't opened yet, oldest first.
  • Completed — finished lessons with Done and the score (Done · 85 %). The three most recent are shown, the rest under Show all.

Leaderboard

The weekly leaderboard of all learners in your account. The tab is there only when the leaderboard is on.

Profile

The learner's name, their points and streak, the Badges section (tap a badge to see how to earn it) and, on a phone, Add to home screen.

When everything is done, the page says so. Only published lessons are shown. Lessons the learner opened without being assigned don't appear.

How learners get there

  • Every lesson invitation by email has a My overview link at the bottom; Slack invitations have a My overview button.
  • At the end of a lesson opened with a personal link, learners can go Back to my overview.
  • You can send the link yourself: in the learner's menu ⋯ on the Learners page or in their profile, choose Copy learner page link.
  • To see the page the way the learner sees it, choose Preview learner page in the same menu — it opens in a new tab. While you're signed in to Grizlet, nothing you do there is recorded for the learner.
  • Learners can ask for the link themselves at your-address/me (for example app.grizlet.com/your-account/me, or /me on your custom domain): they enter their email and, if they're in your register, get an email with the link. The page doesn't reveal whether an email is registered. If a learner opens an old link that no longer works, they're offered Send me my link.

Opening a learner's page yourself

If you open a learner's page or one of their lesson links while you're signed in to Grizlet as a member of the account, you see a preview. A note at the top says Preview as … — nothing is recorded. The page looks exactly as the learner sees it. You can go through their lessons, but nothing is saved: no answers, results or visits, completed deadlines or sequence steps. On the learner's page, editors and account owners can pick another learner in the note at the top to see that learner's page instead. To take a lesson as a learner, open the link in a private window or another browser where you're not signed in. On your custom domain you're never signed in, so links open there count as the learner's.

Add to home screen

On a phone or tablet, the Profile tab has an Add to home screen button. It explains how to put a shortcut to the page on the home screen: in Safari through Share → Add to Home Screen, in Chrome on Android through the ⋮ menu. Websites can't add the shortcut themselves, so the learner always finishes it in the browser menu. The shortcut opens the page in the learner's browser, with your account's name and an icon made from your logo on your default theme's cover color (the first letter of your account's name if you have no logo; PNG, JPG and SVG logos only). If the page was opened inside another app, such as Gmail or Slack, the button offers Copy link, so the learner can open the page in Safari or Chrome first.

The page is personal, like the learner's personal link. If you reset the learner's link, the old page address stops working too.

Taking a lesson again

When a learner opens a lesson they've already finished, its first screen shows Done with their first score and the note Your first result counts, and the button reads Take it again instead of Start course. The lesson then starts from the beginning, like a new lesson. They can go through the lesson as many times as they like, but only the first result counts: the page, lesson results, the learner's profile and sequences all use the first result.

Look and language

The page uses your account's logo, fonts and default theme. Its language is the most common player language of the learner's lessons.
