Educators

Tailor classes: Use Lightbook Starter’s library of pre-built lessons, activities and interactive/multimedia resources to build out classes that suit your needs.

Designed to check understanding after completing a topic, check-in questions are a short assessment of learning outcomes. These auto-correcting questions are linked to the Progress Tracker.

Check-in questions can be used as a short quiz after each lesson or as preparation for summative assessment at the end of the chapter. Learners can also access hints and progress without having to ask a teacher. The teacher also gets to see what kind of hints or help their students are using to get through their work.
