language level

during this course I've had to change the level of the Java language several times from level 6 to level 8, and this resets every time that we add a new item to the .gradle is there a way that I can set this as a default in inteliJ so that I don't have to spend that extra minute setting the language level and changing the version from 1.5 to 1.7

I had the same problem and what fixed it was changing

sourceCompatibility = 1.5

to

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

in the project's build.gradle file.
