The tools described in this article are helpful in engaging students and running LiveSchool systems! You can find each of them on the Action Bar.

Randomizer

Click on Randomizer in the Action Bar.

Make student selection fair and fun with the Randomizer. It ensures all students get a turn before anyone is selected a second time:

  1. Click the 'Randomizer' in the Action Bar.

  2. Customize Sounds and Popups for the Randomizer using the steps from Tip 7.

  3. You can also use the Randomizer to select a student from a group you've chosen.

Timer

Click on "more" and then select "Timer".

There are a few things you can do with Timer:

  • Choose a pre-added Timer, or create your own in increments of 15 seconds

  • Add some jeopardy-like music

  • Minimize and keep giving points as usual

  • Add 15 seconds at any time

  • Set the timer to automatically repeat for recurring classroom procedures

  • Use “Reset” to start over

You can find the Timer in the Action Bar.

Turn on the “Repeat” function and set the timer to 5 minutes. Whenever the Timer goes off, look for students meeting your expectations and award points! It’s a fun and engaging way to stay positive.

Stopwatch

Click on More and then click on Stopwatch.

LiveSchool’s Stopwatch makes it easy to time students, and continue giving Points!

With the Stopwatch you can:

  • Minimize and keep giving Points

  • Add jeopardy-like music

  • Clear to reset back to zero


You can find the Stopwatch in the Action Bar.

Calculator

Click on More and then click on Calculator.

Test students’ PEMDAS skills – or use it for quick calculations or double-checking (for us non-math teachers).


You can find the Calculator on the Action Bar.
