Mark Scheme

Put it on the board. Show where the marks are.

A workspace for the resources you teach from. Every line is linked to the mark scheme, with a question to ask the class. For English, maths and science.

60 free credits when you make an account: about two poems. No card.

Point at a line. The note and the question are there.

Your resource is on the board. Each line that matters is marked in the colour of its assessment objective.

Go to a line and you see why it matters, and a question to ask the class. You do not hunt through your notes while thirty students wait.

  • A note and a class question for each marked line
  • One colour for each assessment objective
  • Larger text for the board with one button
The poem Ozymandias on the screen. The pointer moves to the line “My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings”. A note about the line opens, with a question to ask the class.

See why it earns marks. In the words of your mark scheme.

Each annotation quotes the part of your mark scheme that it helps a student to meet. Select it, and the mark scheme opens at those words.

The class sees the line and the level descriptor together. “This is a good point” becomes “this is what Level 4 looks like”.

  • Your own mark scheme, rubric or assessment objectives
  • Any exam board
  • Up to five mark schemes for one resource
An annotation on the line “Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!” is open. The teacher selects “In the mark scheme”. The mark scheme opens, and the sentence that the annotation helps a student to meet is highlighted.

Not only English. A model answer, marked line by line.

Add an exam question with its model answer, and the mark scheme. Each line of working, or each sentence, is linked to the mark that it gets.

The class sees where a method mark comes from, what the examiner wants in a six-mark answer, and the mistake that loses the mark.

  • Maths: method marks and accuracy marks, line by line
  • Science: calculations and extended answers
  • History and other subjects: sources and essays
A model answer to a maths question about a quadratic equation. The pointer goes to a line of the working. A note opens: it says which mark the line gets and the mistake that students make, with a question for the class.

Add your text and the mark scheme. Get a resource for the board.

Add a Word or PDF file, a photo of a page or a picture, or paste the text. Do the same for the mark scheme. That is all the preparation.

A poem takes about two minutes. You go back to your workspace while it is made, and you can close the page: the resource is there when you come back.

  • Files, photos or pasted text
  • A list of the parts of a long text, so that you can jump to one
  • A plan for the lesson: what the class must notice, and questions to ask
The teacher checks a poem and a mark scheme and selects “Create the resource”. The workspace opens with a placeholder for the new resource that shows the step and the time that is left. Then the finished resource takes its place.

You decide what the class sees.

AI writes the first draft. You are the teacher. Change a note, write a better question, delete what you do not want. Select any words to add an annotation of your own.

Publish when the resource is right. The class opens it with a password that you set. You can change it after the lesson, and the class sees the new version.

  • Edit each note and each question
  • Add your own annotations
  • No accounts for students: one link and one password
The teacher selects words in the poem. A small form opens. The teacher writes a note and adds the annotation. The words now have a highlight and the note is in the list.

One workspace. Every class, every resource.

Keep your resources in folders: a folder for each class, a unit or a term. Add, rename and move them as you would in a file manager.

Each resource gets tags for its level and its topic, and you can change them. Search by title, subject or tag from any page.

  • Folders inside folders
  • Tags and a search
  • Samples for English, maths, science and history in a new account
The workspace of a teacher. Folders for Year 10, Year 11 and samples are at the left. The teacher opens the search, types a word, and opens the maths resource that it finds.

Three steps. About two minutes for a poem.

  1. 1

    Add your text and the mark scheme

    A text that the class studies, or a model answer. Then what you mark with: a mark scheme, a rubric or the assessment objectives. Files or pasted text.

  2. 2

    Check the draft

    You get the text with the important lines marked. Each one has a note, a question for the class and a quotation from your mark scheme. Change what you want.

  3. 3

    Publish and teach

    Set a password and publish. Show the resource on the board, or give the class the link and the password.

Questions that teachers ask.

Can I make a lesson from a part of a long text?

Yes. Add the full text one time, for example a novel. It is read and gets all its annotations, and it stays in your library. Then make a lesson for each aim that you teach: a theme, an exam question or an assessment objective. A lesson has the extracts of the text for that aim, with their annotations. The extracts are the words of the text, exactly: the product adds no headings and no summaries.

Which subjects and exam boards does it work with?

All exam boards, because you add your own mark scheme and the annotations use its words. It was made for English literature first: poems, plays and novels. It also works for a model answer in maths, science, history and other subjects: an exam question with its answer, marked line by line.

How does it show maths?

As a model answer: each line of working is linked to the mark that it gets, with the reason and the mistake that students usually make. The working shows as typed text, for example x² + 3x − 28 = 0, with each line of working set apart from the sentences. It does not draw diagrams or graphs, but you can add a diagram or a graph as a picture, and the annotations mark its parts.

Is this made by AI?

The first draft is. AI reads your text and your mark scheme and writes the annotations and the questions. Each quotation is checked against your text, and an annotation whose quotation is not in the text is removed. Then you check the draft, change what you want and add your own annotations. Nothing goes to the class until you publish it.

Do students need an account?

No. You set a password for each resource. The class opens the link and enters the password. Students give no name and no email address.

What can I add: files or text?

The two. Add Word (.docx) and PDF files of a maximum of 25 MB, or paste the text. You can also add a photo, a scan or a screenshot (.png, .jpg or .webp) of a maximum of 10 MB: the words are read for you, so check them against the page. Pasted text is tidied for the board: the paragraphs and the line breaks are corrected, and your words do not change.

How do I keep my resources in order?

In folders, as in a file manager: a folder for each class, a unit or a term, and folders inside folders. Each resource also has tags for its level and its topic. The search finds a resource by its title, its subject, a tag or its folder.
