Formative assessment without the grading overhead
Exit tickets, mid-lesson comprehension checks, and pre-lesson activators are proven formative assessment strategies. The problem is logistics: paper slips take time to collect and tally, Google Forms require accounts, and clicker systems require hardware. rifts.to does all of this digitally — you run the poll, your audience fills in the form anonymously, with nothing to set up on their side.
Display the QR code, your audience answers one to five questions and submits anonymously. You see results immediately on your screen. If most responses on a multiple choice question show the wrong answer, you know before the bell rings — not when you're grading on Sunday night.
Works with BYOD policies at every level
rifts.to works on any phone browser — iPhone, Android, older devices. No app to install means no "I can't find it in the App Store" delays. The survey URL works in any browser, so even school-issued Chromebooks can participate.
For university lecture halls, the QR code approach is especially effective. Project it for 30 seconds, and the majority of a 200-seat lecture will have already responded before you move to the next slide.
