Material you already use, and what comes out of it

  • A documentary clip on YouTube

    Paste a documentary on the fall of the Berlin Wall. You get the events of 1989 to put in order and multiple-choice questions on causes and people, and every question points to the moment in the film where it is answered.

  • A primary source

    Paste the text of a speech, a treaty article or a letter home from the front. Temaly writes short-answer questions on who wrote it, why and for whom, plus true-or-false statements that reward careful reading.

  • A textbook page on the Industrial Revolution

    Photograph the page. Out come a matching exercise between inventions and inventors, a timeline to put in order and gap fills on the key terms.

How it works

  1. Bring your material

    A YouTube video link, a photo of a textbook page or any text you paste in.

  2. Say who it is for

    Subject, level, language and what the exercises should practise. Temaly drafts the set.

  3. Share one link

    Students open it on any phone, type their name and answer. You see every answer, question by question.
