For teachers who need to know whether to keep going

A quiz in the lesson, not after it.

One question, right now, in the same place as the notes. You see the answer, you decide whether to keep teaching or pause. No Forms links in chat, no Kahoot scoring.

Quiz in Lucyboard next to lesson notes — view with a question and answer options.

Sometimes you need one question, not a testing system.

You have spent 10 minutes explaining the definition of a derivative. You want to know if the class is with you before you move to a worked example. You do not need Kahoot with a leaderboard. You do not need Google Forms with a report. You need one question, right now, in the same place as the rest of the lesson, with the result visible immediately. That is the quiz in Lucyboard.

Quiz next to notes — example from a derivative lesson.

When a quiz in class makes sense — and when it doesn't.

It makes sense: after explaining a new concept, before a harder example, at the end of a section to decide whether to go back. It does not make sense: as a separate "testing system", as an exam with grades, as a gamification tool with rankings. If that is what you are looking for, this is not the right page — Lucyboard is not trying to be Kahoot.

Three example quiz questions: pick the next step, find the error, true or false.

Three question types that work on the whiteboard.

Type one: "pick the next step in the solution". The student sees three options for the next transformation, clicks. Type two: "which of these two is correct and why". The student sees two similar fragments, picks, sees the explanation. Type three: "true or false on this passage". The student clicks, moves to the next question. All three work next to the notes, in the same view.

Full view: lesson notes with a quiz panel next to it showing an active question.

Quiz next to notes, not in a new tab.

The student does not leave the lesson to take a quiz. They answer in the same view where the note, the formula, or the diagram is. After answering, they return to the topic, not to a separate app. This is not a testing system with a timer and a ranking — it is a check-in at the pace of the lesson.

Student-side view of the quiz — responsive, mobile-friendly, no account required.

What the student sees on the other side.

They get a link, click, see the question right away. They can answer from a phone, a tablet, a laptop. No install, no account, no waiting. After answering, they immediately see if they got it right. Done with "fill it out by Friday and email it back".

Board after the lesson with the quiz visible in the context of the notes.

The question stays in the lesson context.

A quiz in Lucyboard is a board element, not a separate activity. After the lesson, the student can return to the same board and see what was asked, what they answered, and what the right answer looked like. That gives them a recap with zero extra work on your side.

What Lucyboard is NOT.

This is not the right page for you if you are looking for:

  • Kahoot or Quizizz — there is no scoring, ranking, timer, or music. That is on purpose.
  • Google Forms or Typeform — there is no spreadsheet export, no class report, no automatic grading.
  • A proctored exam system — no full-screen mode, no tab-switch blocking, no camera.
  • A question bank with subject, class, or difficulty tags — questions are added manually to a specific board.

Add one question to your next lesson.

You do not need to build a quiz. Pick one fragment of the material students need to understand, write one question, add it to the board. It will take you less than 2 minutes. The result: you know right after the question whether to keep going or go back.

Frequently asked questions

As many as you need. Realistically, 1-3 questions per lesson section is a good rhythm. More than that and it stops being a check-in during the lesson and turns into a separate test.

Yes. After clicking an answer, the student sees whether they chose correctly, plus a short explanation if you added one. The teacher sees the same view, so you don't have to dig into a separate report.

Yes. Lucyboard has single choice, multiple choice, and open questions. Open is a question with no options — the student types an answer, the teacher sees it, and grading is on your side.

Yes. The quiz is a board element, you add it next to a note, a formula, a PDF. You don't have to create a separate board for the quiz.

Yes. The quiz renders in the browser, with no login. The student clicks, answers, sees the result. Zero setup on their side.

Yes, if you copy the quiz element between boards. But a question should be close to the material it refers to — a copied question without context loses meaning. Better to write questions on the fly for a specific lesson.
