Practice Mode vs. Assignment Mode

Neurofit Dashboard: Practice Mode vs. Assignment Mode

1. Understand the purpose of Practice Mode

• Practice Mode is a free-flowing, open-ended, exploratory experience.
• Clients can join in on-demand whenever they want.
• There is no fixed task structure; users choose how to engage with the activities.
• Each activity uses an established challenge level based on the user’s past history with that activity.

2. Understand the purpose of Assignment Mode

• Assignment Mode is for defined tasks assigned as homework or structured work for clients.

  Clients see a clear breakdown of:

  • what they need to do
  • when they need to do it
  • by when it must be completed
• This mode is designed to provide clear criteria and expectations.

3. Configure an assignment from the provider side

• Go to the specific client in View Client.

• Select New Assignment.

  Set the assignment parameters, including:

  • amount of time the client should spend
  • days of the week the assignment should run
  • date range for the assignment
  • time window when the client can complete it
  • the activities to include
• Use the tooltip if you need help understanding when assignments will occur.

4. Save and review the assignment on the client portal

• Click Save Activity to create the assignment.
• The client will then see the assignment in their portal as part of their scheduled activities.
• Assignments appear over a period of time and can be opened for more detail.

5. Edit assignment details and difficulty settings

• Open the assignment to view its pre-configured defaults.

  As the therapist/provider, you can change details such as:

  • time spent on the activity
  • number of completions required

  • difficulty grading threshold

    Difficulty can be adjusted using:

  • AI-assisted recommendations

  • manual overrides

    You can also modify activity variables like:

  • distractors
  • number of combinations of variables/stimuli
  • number of alternatives in the game/activity
• The goal is to make the activity appropriately challenging for the client.

6. Use support tools and review reporting

• If you need help configuring an assignment, use the chatbot for clarification.

  The dashboard tracks data over time for both:

  • assignments
  • practice mode activity
• You can review this information in the client’s reports to monitor progress and changes.
