Step by step
The workflow to follow inside Planlark.
These steps are ordered to match how the planner works in practice, so later actions build on the context created in earlier ones.
2
Choose the right template and source
Use the standard assignment template for a general handout and the text template when students should read a passage before answering. Add source text, textbook excerpts, or lesson context before generating the questions.
3
Generate editable questions and answer keys
Planlark can produce multiple choice, short answer, fill in the blank, and matching questions. Every assessment should keep an answer key with explanations and acceptable alternatives where needed.
4
Use Lark for targeted assessment edits
Ask Lark to replace Question 4, add a matching section, make the assessment easier, or delete a set of questions. The assessment builder is designed so AI and manual editing work on the same record.
5
Preview, print, or download the branded handout
Use the built-in template preview to switch between student copy and answer key, then print or download the branded template output. This gives you a ready-to-use classroom document without losing the editable source record.

FAQ
Questions teachers usually ask here.
Can I edit the questions after AI generates them?
Yes. The builder is meant to stay editable. You can change prompts, switch question types, revise answer keys, reorder items, or ask Lark to regenerate only part of the assessment.
What is the difference between the standard and text templates?
The standard template is a general branded assignment layout. The text template adds a reading or source passage above the questions so students work from shared text.
