Ways To Use Breakout


Replace low-effort posts with structured, spoken responses that show real understanding.

Students respond and reply out loud—so everyone has to explain their thinking, engage with peers, and stay accountable. You get consistent, reviewable evaluation without chasing participation.

Run solo oral exams that are easier to verify—and faster to evaluate.

FAQ

  • Does Breakout work for asynchronous courses?
  • Yes. While the platform is designed for a synchronous experience, it also allows students to go through the experience individually.
  • Is Breakout designed for solo or group work?
  • The platform is designed for group work, but an individual can go through the experience alone.
  • How are assessments designed? Who developed them?
  • Breakout combines AI-powered analysis with professor-defined criteria. The AI evaluates discussions using Bloom’s Taxonomy, while professors determine how participation, comprehension, and AI Evaluation contribute to grading. The assessment, learning objectives, and rubrics are designed by an academic author in collaboration with Breakout staff.
  • Does the Breakout software work with my LMS?
  • Our platform connects with Canvas via secure, real-time API integrations. It enables professors to create and manage assignments with the same functionality found in the primary Breakout platform. Gradebook sync is also provided from the platform to Canvas.
  • Does Breakout’s platform meet privacy and accessibility standards?
  • Our platform meets rigorous security and accessibility standards, including but not limited to GDPR, FERPA, SOC 2, and WCAG. Please refer to our full privacy policy and other IT security information for additional details.
