As a community college professor in Illinois, Antonio faced the challenge of transitioning quickly to a remote teaching setup during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Delivering assessments in a structured and secure manner was critical to ensuring students' understanding of the material.
The lack of appropriate tools made the task time-consuming and cumbersome.
Managing quizzes, collecting responses, grading, and integrating results into his Learning Management System (LMS) presented significant logistical challenges.
Antonio needed a tool that could automate quiz administration, enhance efficiency, and reduce manual intervention, while ensuring a seamless experience for both students and educators.
Antonio was specifically looking for a solution that could integrate with his existing systems, offer flexibility for both students and teachers, and provide automatic grading functionality.
