Good evening, Maya. You've got 4 things tonight.

After Grandma's dinner, start with the history outline. It's the biggest one and it's due Thursday.

Your coaching

Set skill by skill, not by grade. Ask for more help any time.

Your assignments

From what your teachers posted in Schoology (simulated in this demo). Nothing is reposted in Linelo.

Your work stays in Google Docs or Kami, and submissions stay in Schoology. Status here is what you report unless it says platform-confirmed.

Portfolio records

Writing you've reflected on. Each record links to files in Google Docs, Kami and Schoology.

Linelo helps students organize assignments, get started, study purposefully, and build the skills to manage their own learning. Its coaching gradually steps back as students demonstrate greater independence.

Coaching by skill

Each skill has its own level. You might plan on your own but still want help with a rubric. That's normal.

On your own and followed through Followed through with help Plan didn't work out

How levels change

Demo rules · provisional
  • Guided: step-by-step planning questions. Light support: brief hints and check-ins. Student-led: you start, and help stays one tap away.
  • A skill moves one step toward Student-led when 3 of your last 4 tries show you did it on your own and followed through.
  • It moves one step toward Guided when the plan didn't work out in 3 of your last 4 tries.
  • Your grade level, how often you ask for help and time spent in the app don't change your level.
  • If you ask for more guidance, Linelo won't reduce support for that skill until you choose to.
  • These are placeholder rules for the prototype. They haven't been validated, and they don't measure ability.

Supports that never change

Accessibility supports stay on at every coaching level.

Heads up

Tuesday is tight: you work 5–9 PM and have a Spanish quiz Wednesday. Linelo suggests doing Spanish practice on Monday.

Where things come from

Schoology · 6 classesGoogle Calendar · optional

Teacher assignments sync on their own. If a teacher changes a due date, it updates here too. Your personal items stay private, and teachers, the district and parents never see them.

Add to my calendar

Linelo plans your homework around it.

Type

Break a big assignment into steps

Pick a project. Linelo suggests steps, and you edit them. It never writes the work.

    Why steps?

    Big projects feel impossible when they're one line on a to-do list. Small steps with their own mini due dates make it clear what to do tonight.

    Teacher's instructions (from Schoology)

    Write a 3–4 page paper on one Harlem Renaissance figure. Use at least 3 sources, including one primary source. MLA format.

    Pick something to review

    Made from materials your teachers posted

    Study Buddy only uses the assignment your teacher posted. It gives answers and explanations for review, but it won't help write papers or other work you turn in.

    Ask Study Buddy

    Coach

    Planning help only

    What Coach does

    • Helps you decide what to do first and plan a first step
    • Asks what's stopping you, and matches help to the answer
    • Helps you get back on track after a missed plan
    • Explains writing skills: task words, claims, evidence, reasoning
    • Sends you to Study Buddy for approved review material
    • Points you back to your teacher, notes and textbook

    What Coach won't do

    • Write your thesis, outline, sentences or paragraphs
    • Rewrite your paper or answer graded work
    • Change a due date or promise an extension
    • Import grades or keep a grade history
    • Act as a friend or chat about your personal life

    Coach vs. Study Buddy

    Coach helps you plan. Study Buddy helps you review, using only material your teacher approved for review. Neither one writes papers, answers graded work or acts as a friend. Replies in this demo are scripted, not live AI.

    Preview of what Mom sees

    Keep posting assignments, directions, resources and due dates in Schoology as you do now. Linelo reads them from there, so there's nothing to repost (simulated in this demo). Attaching a file doesn't turn on AI help. You set your defaults once and add exceptions only where you need them.

    Linelo help for your assignments

    Every assignment follows your defaults unless you add an exception. Uploading a rubric or exemplar doesn't turn anything on by itself, and your settings always win. Other teachers are in the menu so you can see every assignment Maya has in this demo.

    Class totals only, and only when 5 or more students are included. No names, no grades and never students' personal calendar items.

    18 students now use fewer prompts. That counts as a promising sign only where their follow-through held steady (about 4 in 5). Where it dropped, Linelo offered more guidance. Levels use provisional demo rules and don't measure independence.

    DataUsed?
    Class names and schedulesYes
    Assignment titles, instructions, due datesYes
    Turned in / returned statusNot in this demo
    Platform confirmation would appear only from a working Schoology integration. Today every status is the student's own report and is labeled that way.
    Posted directions, rubrics and exemplarsOnly for uses the teacher allows
    Each use (planning, writing coaching, exemplar, rubric check) has its own teacher switch.
    Review material (study guides, vocab lists, lesson examples)Yes, for Study Buddy only
    Only when the teacher allows review. Never graded work.
    Gradebook (PowerSchool)Not imported
    No averages and no grade history. Check my grade is just a link. A student may choose to type a score during reflection; this prototype keeps it on screen only and doesn't save, export or count it.
    Teacher commentsNot imported
    Students may describe feedback in their own words or keep a link to it in Schoology. Linelo doesn't read linked comments.
    Class work set to finish at home (carry-over)Teacher setting + student report
    The teacher marks it to finish at home, and the student reports how much is done. Linelo doesn't open worksheets, read answers or detect blank questions.
    Essays and other student writingNot imported
    Stays in Google Docs, Kami and Schoology. The portfolio keeps links and file names, not copies.
    Personal calendar items students addPrivate to student
    Class schedule and "where I stopped" notes (optional)Private to student
    Entered by the student and kept on the student's device. Block names, times, days and course matches only. No room numbers, diagnoses or school records. Not shared with teachers, parents or the district.
    Focus sessions (optional timer)Private to student
    Goal, timer length and the student's own check-in stay on the student's device. No focus scores, attention ratings or minute-by-minute activity go to teachers, parents or the district. Linelo doesn't monitor other tabs or collect diagnoses.

    The Linelo™ promise

    Linelo helps students organize assignments, get started, study purposefully, and build the skills to manage their own learning. Here is what it will never do.

    1. Answers only for review. Study Buddy uses only material the teacher approved for review. It never answers graded work, even if it's relabeled as practice.
    2. Students report their own progress. For class work that carries over, students say how much is done. Linelo doesn't open student work, read answers or detect blank questions.
    3. Writing stays the student's. Linelo teaches writing skills and offers blank organizers, but it never writes a thesis, outline, sentences or paragraphs, and never rewrites a paper.
    4. No gradebook. Linelo doesn't import grades from PowerSchool, calculate averages or keep a grade history. Check my grade is just a link. Students may choose to mention a score while reflecting on returned work. It's never required.
    5. No companionship. No personality chat, no streak guilt, no "I miss you."
    6. No ads, no data sales. Student data is used only to help that student plan.
    7. Personal life stays private. Work shifts, clubs and family events students add are never shown to teachers, the district or parents.
    8. Support steps back, skill by skill. Coaching decreases as students show readiness over several tries. Students can ask for more at any time, and accessibility supports are never reduced.
