THE THREE BUILDING BLOCKS

A question bank, assessments built from it, assignments alongside

QUESTION BANK

Write a question once, use it in every assessment

One question bank per course. Sort by the topic, clone and reorder, export a topic into a file, import questions you already have from files or photos.

  • Multiple choice, short answer with accepted answers, and open (long) answer questions

  • Import from PDF, Word, Excel, CSV, text or a photo of a worksheet

  • Proper scientific notation in questions and answer options

  • AI drafts questions from your material, you can review and adjust

WRITTEN ASSESSMENTS

Timing, attempts, question pools, result rules: you configure it

How long the assessment lasts, when it opens and closes, how many attempts. Draw a random subset from a question pool so every student sees a different paper, shuffle the options, decide whether the correct answers are shown afterwards.

  • Duration, start date and deadline

  • Attempt limits, raised per student when someone needs another try

  • Random question selection from a pool; shuffled options

  • Answers auto-save while students work

ASSIGNMENTS

Assignments with instructions, files and drafts

Describe the task, attach reference files, set a deadline. Students write or upload their work in a file, save drafts, submit when done. You see who handed in and who did not, preview files without downloading, grade with feedback, release grade to students.

  • Written and file-based submissions

  • Inline preview of PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint

  • Release grades to all, or student by student

PROCTORING

Proctoring that does not spy on anyone

The assessment takes over the screen, copying and pasting is blocked, every time a student leaves the page is noted, only one monitor is allowed, and you see how many violations they get.

  • The student leaves fullscreen: the assessment pauses behind a prompt until they return.

  • The teacher sees every incident afterwards, with what happened and how long the student was away.

What it does

  • Make the assessment take over the whole screen for the whole attempt

  • Stop students pasting text into their answers

  • Stop students copying questions

  • Note every time a student leaves the assessment page

  • Note every time a student reloads the assessment page

  • Detect every time a student is offline

  • Stop students opening their notes or any other external programs

  • Stop students from using multiple monitors

  • Warn the student each time they break a rule

  • Record the duration of each violation and show it to you

What is not recorded

  • Use the microphone during written assessments

  • Record or photograph what is on the student’s screen: no personal information is shared

  • Follow students anywhere outside the assessment
