Geo Classroom

Set work on the countries you have actually covered, not on a fixed syllabus. Students join with a six-character code you write on the board, and their scores come back to you without anyone pasting anything.

How a class runs

Four things you do once, then it is just marking.

A class in LearnGeo is a name, a short code and a list of assignments. Sign in and it lives in your account, so students join with the code alone and their scores arrive on their own. Stay signed out and the same class runs on copy-and-paste codes instead.

Name your class

It gets a short code of its own, like 8RLJQU. Write it on the board. That code is what tells a student's app which class they belong to.

Write the assignments

Pick the countries one at a time or drop in a whole continent, then choose the mode, the length, the question types and whether it is timed.

Hand out the class code

Signed-in students need nothing else, and anything you set later appears for them automatically. Anyone without an account joins with a copy-and-paste code instead.

Read the gradebook

Signed-in students' scores land there as they finish. For everyone else, paste up to twenty result codes at once, or type a score in by hand if they worked on paper.

What you can set

Exactly the countries you covered, under the conditions you want.

An assignment is a list of places plus a set of rules. Nothing in it is fixed to a syllabus, so a revision list of eleven awkward capitals is as valid as a whole continent.

A named list of countriesType them in one at a time, or add a whole region with one button.
Exam conditionsHold every result back until they submit, and put the section on a clock.
Typed answersTurn off multiple choice so they have to spell it themselves.
Any of the four modesA scored practice test, open practice, flashcards, or the class map quiz where they click the country and write its name and capital.

What the class screen gives you

Twenty results in one pasteStudents send a short code each. Paste the lot in together and they sort themselves onto the right names.
A score you can type inAnyone who worked on paper or lost their code still gets a row.
What the class keeps missingThe analytics tab ranks the countries the whole class gets wrong, so you know what to reteach.
A CSV when you need oneExport the gradebook and put it wherever your school keeps marks.

Privacy

You decide how much of it leaves the room.

Signed out, nothing is uploaded at all. Your class, your assignments and every score you collect sit in your own browser, and no student ever gives an email address. That cuts both ways: the class lives on the machine you built it on, and clearing your browser storage clears the gradebook with it.

Signed in, the class is stored in your account instead, so it follows you between devices and students can join and hand work in online. What gets stored for a student is their name, which class they are in and their scores. Either way, export the CSV at the end of a unit if the marks need to outlive any of it.

Open Geo Classroom

Free either way. You can start signed out and make an account later.
