Online assessment

Online assessment that fits inside the lesson

Run a quick check or a full quiz — live or self-paced — and get auto-marked results the moment students answer, so you can act before the lesson ends.

Running practice with instant feedback is free on Teacher Basic; class-wide reports and the live grid are part of Teacher Plus and the School plan.

The problem

Most assessment means marking after class, when it's too late to change today's lesson. You find out who struggled long after the moment you could have stepped in.

Formative assessment, in the moment

ClassKite turns your questions into auto-marked practice you can run live or set for independent work. Students answer on their own devices; each response is checked instantly, and the results show exactly which students got it right first time and which needed several attempts. It's formative assessment that informs the lesson you're teaching — not a marking pile for tonight.

How it works

  1. 1

    Build or generate questions

    Write them, import a question bank spreadsheet, or draft with AI — then review each one.

  2. 2

    Open an assessment

    Run it live with the whole class, or set it for self-paced practice.

  3. 3

    Auto-marking, instantly

    All six question types are marked the moment students answer.

  4. 4

    See where to step in

    Per-student results show who is secure and who needs you next.

In the classroom

Five minutes before the end, a teacher runs an exit-ticket quiz. It marks itself, only 40% got one question right first time, and tomorrow's starter is decided on the spot.

What you get

Auto-marked, instantly

Every answer is checked on submit — no marking pile afterwards.

Live or self-paced

Run a check live in the lesson, or set a quiz for independent practice.

Six question types

Multiple choice, true/false, fill-in-the-blank (word or number), matching and jumbled sentence.

Per-student insight

See what each student got right first time and what they solved in the end.

Instant student feedback

Students see right/wrong and points immediately, which keeps them moving. In SBQ mode, results wait until you release them.

CSV export

Export a session's results to share with colleagues or keep on file.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a formative or summative assessment tool?

Both work, but it shines for formative assessment: results are instant, so you can adjust the lesson while it's happening. You can also run a longer quiz and export the results.

Are answers marked automatically?

Yes. All six question types are auto-marked: multiple choice, true/false, fill-in-the-blank (word or number), matching and jumbled sentence. You set the answer key when you create or review each question. A blank takes one word or one number and is matched exactly (capitals don't matter). There are no short-answer, free-text or essay questions, and no partial marks.

Is there exam proctoring or lockdown?

There is no webcam proctoring. For a class quiz, SBQ mode adds quiz conditions: copying the questions is turned off, and you see which answers were given after a student left the page. On iPads, you can also require Safe Exam Browser, which locks the iPad to the quiz until you end the session. ClassKite is built for classroom checks and quizzes, not for remotely invigilated exams.

Can I export results?

Yes — export any session's results to CSV.
