Overview

Overview

Parlay is a platform for written and verbal academic discussion. Teachers launch roundtables with prompts and resources, students contribute and respond, and educators use rubrics and participation information.

Participation records describe contributions within a specific discussion and prompt. Teachers connect them with reasoning, listening, and feedback. The prompt, format, and participation expectations shape the resulting evidence. Teachers use the discussion record in the context of the learning goal and their assessment approach.

How it supports learning

  • Teachers launch roundtables with prompts and resources, students contribute and respond, and educators use rubrics and participation information.
  • Teachers should connect use to explicit learning goals and inspect student work rather than rely on completion, time-on-task, or engagement alone.

Implementation and instructional decisions

  • Set equitable discussion norms and alternatives; review AI features, moderation, accessibility, grading validity, and whether quantity metrics obscure contribution quality.
  • Districts should confirm accessibility, language support, student-data practices, assignment workflow, reporting, and the continuing role of teacher judgment.
