The home screen
What to do today
The first screen shows the level reached, the course to pick up and up to 3 useful numbers:
a number at zero doesn’t show: with no cards to review, the cards box isn’t there.
When the teacher opens the classroom, a button to join appears at the top, and below are the month’s calendar and the latest announcement. From the Calendar screen, students can bring lessons and homework deadlines into Google Calendar, Outlook or their phone.
Practice and certainty
Which answers they knew and which they guessed
Practice is a quiz you can redo as often as you like, and after each answer the «Check» button shows right away whether it was right. A practice lesson only counts as done when the student passes the quiz.
In quizzes where the teacher asks for certainty, the student chooses the answer and then states how sure they are: «I know the answer», «I think it’s this one» or «I’m guessing». On submission they see the answers split into four boxes: solid knowledge, wrong conviction, luck or a hunch, gap.
certainty never counts towards the grade: it pays to be honest about it.

In the room
The classroom from the phone, or with a card
Students join the classroom opened by the teacher with a 6-character code or by scanning the projected QR code. From the phone they raise their hand, answer «Are we on track?» and take part in class games, and mistakes on questions from the bank end up in their review.
Where phones aren’t allowed, the student answers by turning a printed card, which they keep, and the teacher collects the whole class’s answers by scanning the room. Students also check themselves in, with the QR code or by tapping their phone on the room’s tag.
