Rotimi Best 81294a47f9 feat: live class sessions, CE workflow, and docs (#683)
Adds live-class session scheduling on lessons (join link, date/time,
timezone) with automatic 24h and 1h reminder emails plus a calendar
invite (.ics), a time-change notification with an updated invite, a
teacher-authored welcome email and session invite on enrollment, and a
"Notify students" quiz nudge.

LMS gets an upcoming live-sessions card and Join buttons, plus a
reusable live-session card component (3 states) in @cio/ui with a
Storybook story. The sidebar content tree now reflects sequential
progression locking like the content list, and the course-completion
confetti regression is fixed.

Org-based emails no longer reference ClassroomIO by name. Docs add
live-class, welcome-email, and course-progression guides, expand the
certificates guide (design, signatures, corrected labels), move
plan-required callouts to the top, flatten how-to-guides to the docs
root with redirects, and add screenshots. Includes an add-docs-image
skill.

title: How to Grade an Exercise
description: Review student submissions, move them through the grading workflow, score answers, and leave feedback.

When students submit exercises, their work appears in the **Submissions** tab of the course dashboard. Exercises move through a three-stage workflow: **Submitted → In Progress → Graded**.
## Grading workflow
| Stage | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| **Submitted** | Student has submitted; not yet reviewed |
| **In Progress** | You have opened the submission for review |
| **Graded** | Review is complete and the grade is recorded |
Submissions are displayed as cards on a board. Drag a card between columns or open it to change its status manually.
<Callout type="info" title="Auto-graded exercises">
Exercises that use only objective question types (multiple choice, etc.) are auto-graded when submitted. They move directly to **Graded** without manual review. Exercises with open-ended or video questions require manual review and are flagged **Manual grading required**.
</Callout>

### Review and score
Each question shows the student's answer alongside the expected answer or rubric. Scores are calculated automatically where possible. Adjust individual question scores if needed.
</Step>

## Grade with AI
Click **Grade with AI** inside the grading modal to get an AI-suggested score and rationale for open-ended answers. Review the suggestion and click **Accept** to apply it or **Reject** to discard it and grade manually.
<Callout type="warn" title="Review AI grades before submitting">
AI grading is a suggestion. Always review the reasoning before accepting, especially for nuanced or context-dependent answers.
