Create your first activity

Build a short activity with a few questions, from multiple choice to drawing, or let AI draft it, then preview it as a student before assigning.

An activity is a set of questions and content (instructions, a reading text, an image or a video). You build it once and can assign it to any class, live in a lesson or as homework.

  1. 1

    Start a new activity

    Go to My activities and click Create activity. The editor opens with an empty activity.

  2. 2

    Give it a title

    Type a title at the top of the editor, for example "Past simple warm-up".

  3. 3

    Add your first question

    Choose a type, such as Multiple choice. Type the question, fill in the options and tick the correct answer so it is marked automatically.

  4. 4

    Add a few more

    Click Add question (or Add a question or content under the last item). Try a Drawing question so students can show their working.

  5. 5

    Preview it

Frequently asked questions

Which questions are marked automatically?

Questions with an answer key, such as multiple choice, true / false, short answer and fill in the blank. Free responses, drawings, audio and file uploads you mark yourself. See Question types.

Can I change an activity after assigning it?

Yes, you can keep editing it in My activities. Be careful when deleting a question students have answered: their answers to it are deleted too.
