When studying for a certification exam, it is easy to get discouraged. Research shows that questions in practice quizzes that are too easy or hard impact motivation to study. It is more motivating to answer questions that meet students where they are at.

With our Level Up quiz mode, question difficulty becomes more challenging as students progress through levels. They will see tangible progress and improvement as you level up.

How does it work?

Quizzes are 10 questions or less, making quick study sessions easy to fit in on the go. Once 85% of a level is answered correctly, the student will level up. Students can work through one subject at a time or jump between subjects. If they sail through all the levels, they can reset their progress to revisit questions further. If leveling up in a particular subject is more of a challenge, they should take the time to read our detailed explanations.

Available on the Web and Mobile

Level Up is available on both our web and mobile platforms so you can enjoy this feature on the go!

Ways to use Level Up in your program:

  1. Assess how a group of students do on the same set of questions through a series of Level Up quizzes. For example, ask your students to “complete levels 1-4 in subject X”.

  2. Challenge your students in class to see who can complete the most levels, within a specific subject, in 15 minutes.

  3. Level 1 should be easy - how many questions are your students getting right in a specific subject?

After completing a Level Up quiz, you can view all exam questions in the Content tab. Filter by Subject to see questions answered in a specific subject. Sort questions by Answered or % Correct to gauge student performance. Click on any question for more details.

To view the results of a specific student's Level Up quiz (or any other quiz), follow these steps:

1. Go to the Stats tab and select the student from the roster.

2. Navigate to their Study Activity area.

3. Choose the quiz that you want to view.

4. The quiz questions the student answered will appear on the right side of the screen. You can also click any other questions to get a more detailed view.
