Agents can be made available to students as part of an assessment or casual learning exercise. They do not require a complete redesign of curricula or assignments you have already prepared and work neatly as an extension to such.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start new assessment">
    Click the <Icon icon="plus" /> icon next to the <Badge>Course</Badge> section heading in the sidebar, then click <Badge color="blue">New assessment</Badge>.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select assessment type and agent">
    Give the assessment a title and select the type of assessment you'd like to create. For agents, use either **oral** or **hybrid**. Then select your agent and click <Badge color="blue">Continue</Badge> to proceed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Upload materials">
    On the next page, upload the instructions that you'll share with your students as well as a grading rubric.

    <Note>
      A rubric is mandatory regardless of whether you're planning on grading the assessment or not, as it will be used to provide students with immediate AI feedback.
