Once students have joined, the live view gives you everything you need to run the lesson: control of the pace, a view of what the class found hard, quick marking and a way to close the activity when you are done.

## Lead the class one question at a time

1. **Switch to One by one** Choose **One by one** above the student cards (or when you assign). Students now see a waiting screen until you open a question.
2. **Open the first question** Press **Next** in the bar at the top. The bar shows **Everyone sees:** and the question that is open on every student’s screen.
3. **Watch the answers come in** The cards update as students answer. Click a card to look closer, give a score or send feedback.
4. **Move on** Press **Next** for the next item or **Previous** to go back. Instruction slides in the activity are part of the sequence too.

## See what to reteach with Insights

Open **Insights** to see the **Score distribution** across the class and a list of **Questions** with how many students got each one right, partly right or wrong. Choose **Hardest first** to put the questions the class struggled with at the top. For many question types you also see the **Common wrong answer**, which often shows the misconception to address. Click a question to jump to its answers.

## Useful tools during the lesson

| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| **Grade answers (n)** | Walks you through every answer still waiting for a score, one after another. |
| **Download** | Saves the results as Excel (.xlsx, scores and question analysis) or CSV (scores only). |
| **Show join screen** | Shows the class code and a QR code in full screen for students who join late. |
| **Documents** | Shares files with the students of this assignment, inside the activity. |
| **Settings** | Changes the due date, time limit, attempts, pass mark and when scores are shown. |

## End the lesson

Press **Close assignment** when you are done. Students can no longer change their answers, but they can still see their work and your feedback. Closing also shows students their scores, whatever you chose under **Show scores**. If you need more time, press **Reopen**.

## Working on a tablet or phone?

> **Working on a tablet or phone?:** On smaller screens, open the menu (☰) to find the same tools: views, pace, **Hide names**, **Assignment settings**, **Documents**, downloads, **Release results** and **Close assignment**.

## Frequently asked questions

**Can students go back to earlier questions in One by one mode?**
No. They only see the question you have open. Switch back to **Student-paced** if you want them to move freely.

**What happens to answers if I switch pace in the middle?**
Nothing is lost. Answers are saved per question, so switching between **Student-paced** and **One by one** keeps everything students have written.

**Can I keep marking after I close the assignment?**
Yes. Closing only stops students from changing their work. You can still give scores and feedback afterwards.
