New! SpotCheck QR Code Update for In-Class Student Participation and Engagement

As schools are returning to in-person teaching and learning, we’ve updated SpotCheck to make it easier to share SpotCheck with your students both in-person and online! You can now share the URL directly or display the URL with an easy to read QR Code! Students can now use their phones or any camera enabled device to capture the QR Code and join the SpotCheck session.

New! ShowWork Student Summary

For any Derivita assignment with Show Work enabled, you can now quickly and easily see which students have uploaded their written work for the assignment.

New! Course Level Settings

You can now set Course level settings within any Derivita assignment. These settings include Time Limit Overrides (which are automatically applied to ALL timed Derivita assignments in the course) and add a late policy to your Derivita assignments.
