Hello and welcome to Quizbase! Quizbase helps teachers like you generate quizzes, tests, and exams from the course material they already have. Let's take a walk through the platform.
Once you log into the platform, you will be presented with your home dashboard. We're going to start by creating a new class using the "Create Class" button beside "Your Classes."

View full-sizeDownload Once you have clicked the "Create Class" button, Quizbase asks you some information about your course, such as the title, the grade, and some initial information about your first unit. For instance, as a social studies teacher, this might be:
Course Title: Ancient History
Grade: 6th Grade
First Unit Title: Learning to Read Maps
First Unit Description: Here you can put your schools goals for 6th grade social studies, the types of things a student will learn in this unit, and any other information. This will inform the AI for what sorts of things to test the student on.
Don't worry, you will be able to edit this later.

I am going to put our lesson plans for the next 2 weeks into this box. Quizbase works better the more materials you add, but works just fine with your detailed unit or lesson plans. Some folks add their proficiency scales here too.
