How to Update a Lesson’s Status 

You can easily move lessons between statuses within your Lessons tab in ARIS Online (AO). This lets you organize what you plan to teach next, what you’re teaching right now, and what lessons have been taught and mastered.

If you prefer a visual demonstration, you can watch the video tutorial here

Where to Find Your Lesson Statuses

In the Lessons tab, you will see four statuses:

• Upcoming - Lessons identified for the learner to work on, but not ready to be introduced
• Current - Lessons that are currently being introduced and taught to the learner
• Maintenance - Lessons that the learner has recently mastered but that you want to periodically revisit to ensure long-term mastery
• Archived - Lessons should be archived once the learner demonstrates consistent mastery over two additional assessments
  
  

Each lesson can be moved between these categories depending on what you’re working on.

How to Move a Lesson Between Statuses

1. Go to the Lessons tab.
   
   
2. Click on the “Status” filter and select Upcoming. This pulls up all lessons you’ve toggled on for your learner in the “Planning” tab.
   
   
3. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) in the right-hand corner of the lesson card.
   
   
4. Select the desired status.
   
   

The lesson will now appear under the new status. You can view all lessons in a particular status by clicking on the “Status” filter and the desired status. 

That’s It!

This feature allows you to keep your teaching flow organized and ensures you are tracking when a lesson is introduced and when it moves through the rest of the statuses.
