Everyone signs up through the same registration page — you just pick which kind of account you need, and the form adjusts to ask for the right details.

1. Go to the registration page

   Open go-math-science.com and choose Register.

2. Choose your role

   Teacher, Student, Parent, or Integrator — the form below changes to match (for example, Student shows a school and year-level field; Integrator asks for your domain or IP address instead).

3. Fill in your details, complete the "I'm not a robot" check, and submit
4. Verify your email

   Enter the code sent to your email to activate your account.

Two different search tools cover two different needs — general site content, and quizzes specifically.

A lot of the site is browsable without an account at all — you don't need to register just to look around.

1. Browse published quizzes and tool pages freely

   Anything a teacher or the site itself has published is publicly viewable, whether or not you're signed in.

2. Take a quiz as a guest, if the teacher's allowed it

   Some quizzes can be shared for anyone to try without a full account — see Taking a Quiz Without an Account for the exact steps.

3. Register when you're ready for more

   An account gets you a saved history, class enrollment, and access to Plus/Premium features — see Creating an Account.

A free, public library of calculators, simulators, and reference tools — separate from the quizzes themselves, and open to anyone.

1. Visit /tools
2. Browse by topic

   Tools are organized into subject folders — nothing to search for, just browse the category that fits what you need.

3. Open any tool and use it directly in your browser

   No login required.

Every account — Teacher, Student, or Parent — has its own independent plan: Free, Plus, or Premium. Upgrading one account never affects another, even if they're linked (like a parent and their child).

1. Free is the default for every new account

   Enough to get started — join or create classes, take or build quizzes, with some limits on how many.

2. Plus and Premium raise those limits and unlock extra features

   Exactly what's included differs by role — see the plan comparison table in the Teacher section (Understanding Your Plan) for the fullest breakdown, since Teacher has the most tiered features.

3. See current pricing and what each plan includes

   On the pricing page, linked from your account menu.

Every payment on the site — a plan upgrade or a one-time donation — is handled by Stripe, a well-known, independent payment processor, not by GoMathScience directly.

1. You're taken to a secure Stripe checkout page

   Whenever you upgrade, switch plans, or donate.

2. Your card details go straight to Stripe

   GoMathScience never sees or stores your full card number — only Stripe does, which is exactly what a payment processor is designed for.

3. You're returned to the site once payment completes

   Your plan (or ad-free status) updates automatically — no need to tell anyone manually.

Two separate ways to remove ads while you're signed in.

1. Subscribe to Plus or Premium

   Ads are automatically removed as part of a paid plan — see Pricing & Subscription Plans.

2. Or make a small one-time donation

   Offered during registration — see Making a Donation for details. This removes ads without needing a full subscription.

A small, one-time contribution that helps support the site's educational content — and removes ads for your account as a thank-you.

1. Look for the donation offer while registering

   Shown as part of the sign-up flow, currently a one-time $1 AUD contribution.

2. Click Donate Now

   Takes you to a secure Stripe checkout page — see How Payments Work.

3. Ads are removed once payment completes

   No separate step needed — this happens automatically.

You need an account to build classes, assignments, and quizzes.

1. Go to the registration page

   Open go-math-science.com and choose Register.

2. Choose "Teacher" as your role
3. Fill in your details

   Name, email address, and a password. Your password needs at least 8 characters, including an uppercase letter, a number, and a symbol.

4. Complete the "I'm not a robot" check
5. Submit and check your email

   You'll receive a verification code by email. Enter it when prompted to activate your account.

Every account starts on the Free plan. Plus and Premium unlock more room and more features. Exact numbers are set by your site's Manager, but typically:

See Managing Your Subscription to upgrade.

1. Go to Your Classes

   From your Teacher home page, choose Classes.

2. Click Add New Class
3. Fill in the class details

   Topic, year level, a maximum number of students (capacity), and a start date if you have one — students see this in the directory.

4. Decide how students join

   Open lets a student in immediately when they request; Approval required holds their request for you to approve or decline first.

5. Choose whether to list it in the public directory

   Ticking List in Public Directory lets students find and request your class by browsing — see Finding and Joining a Class. Leave it unticked to keep the class joinable only by code — even a student who somehow gets the class's internal ID cannot join an unlisted class any other way.

6. Save

   Your class is created with a unique joining code shown on the class page — this still works as a direct, private way to invite students, whether or not the class is also listed in the directory.

7. Share the joining code with your students, if you're using it

   Students enter this exact code to join instantly, regardless of your Open/Approval setting.

If any of your classes require approval to join, requests land here for you to accept or decline — this only applies to classes you set to Approval required.

1. Go to your Teacher Hub and open Join Requests

   A red badge shows how many are waiting on you.

2. Review each request

   Shows the student, which class, and when they asked.

3. Click Approve

   The student is enrolled immediately — or, for a paid class, given 24 hours to pay once payments are available.

4. Or click Decline and give a reason

   A reason is required — the student will see exactly what you type, so make it clear and specific (e.g. "This class is for Year 9 and above."). Declining frees up the spot right away.

5. A Notification Email

   A notification email is sent to the teacher once the student is enrolled in the class.

1. Open your class

   Go to Classes and select the class.

2. View your roster

   Every student who has joined with your class code appears here, with their status.

3. Deactivate a student

   If a student should no longer have access, switch their status to Inactive — this doesn't delete their history, just removes them from the active roster.

4. Reactivate a student

   Switch them back to Active any time — as long as your class still has room.

An assignment links one or more quizzes to a class with a due date.

1. Go to Assignments
2. Click Add New Assignment
3. Choose the class and the quiz (or quizzes)
4. Set a due date and instructions
5. Save

   The assignment now appears for every active student in that class — see Finding Your Assignments.

This is the main quiz-building screen — everything about a quiz's content and settings happens here.

1. Start a new quiz

   From a Quiz Folder, click Add New Quiz.

2. Give it a title and click Create

   This saves an empty quiz and switches the page into edit mode.

3. Add your first question

   Click Add Question. A new question card appears, collapsed.

4. Choose a question type

   Use the type dropdown at the top of the question — types are grouped by category (Choice-Based, Math & Science, Ordering & Matching, Text & Recall, Visual & Interactive). See Choosing Question Types for what each one does.

5. Fill in the answer options

   Use the friendly Builder view (checkboxes, drag targets, etc. — whatever fits the type) to enter your answers. Every type also has a Raw view if you ever need to edit the plain text directly — a toggle switches between the two without losing your work.

6. Write the question text

   Use the rich text box for the question itself — you can format text, insert images, equations, diagrams, and more (see the addon's editor tools).

7. Set points, and optionally an explanation and reference
8. Save the question

   Click the small save icon on that question's toolbar to save just this one question — handy for a quick edit without re-saving the whole quiz.

9. Repeat for each question

   Use the + control between questions to insert a new one at that position, the up/down arrows or drag handle to reorder, and the duplicate icon to clone a question.

10. Save the whole quiz

    Click Save at any time to save every change at once.

17 question types are available. Which ones you can use depends on your plan.

Click the gear icon (Quiz Settings) at the top of the quiz builder to open everything about the quiz as a whole.

1. Pick a Theme

   Changes the whole look of the quiz — colors, fonts, and decoration. Themes are grouped for adults (Academia, Emerald, Executive, Midnight, Minimal) and for younger students (Balloons, Candy, Jungle, Space), each with its own personality.

2. Add Labels

   Tag the quiz by subject so it's easy to find later.

3. Choose enabled Tools and Additional Tools

   Attach calculators, reference sheets, or other published tool pages the student can open while taking the quiz.

4. Set Quiz Mode

   Exam hides feedback until the end; Practice reveals each answer as the student goes; Both lets the student choose.

5. Set Quiz Style

   Step-by-step shows one question at a time; List shows them all at once; Both lets the student choose.

6. Turn on Randomize Questions, if you want

   Shuffles question order for each student.

7. Close the panel and Save the quiz

   Settings are only kept once you save the whole quiz — see Building a Quiz.

Gamified Experience adds an on-screen score, a streak counter, sound, and celebration as students answer — and optionally, a full mini-game.

1. Open Quiz Settings and turn on Gamified Experience
2. Decide whether to add a Game

   Leave the Game field set to None for just the score/streak experience, or pick Race or Chase for a full animated mini-game — details in the Student guide, Playing a Game Quiz.

3. Configure the game

   Once a game is chosen, a matching options form appears — for Race, that's the racer's Avatar, the track Background, Animation Speed, Number of Competitors, and whether wrong answers cause the student to slip back (Regression).

4. Read the limitations note

   The settings panel shows exactly what changes once a game is active — worth reading before you turn it on:

   • The quiz is forced into Step-by-step and Practice mode
   • The tools toolbar and the ordinary Submit button are hidden
   • Notes and Flag are hidden on each question
   • For single/multi-choice questions, picking an answer grades it immediately and moves on — no answer or explanation is shown
   • The quiz submits automatically after the last question
5. Save the quiz

Reuse questions already published elsewhere on the site instead of writing your own from scratch.

1. Click Find Question

   In the quiz builder toolbar.

2. Search

   By keyword, subject, or year level.

3. Select the questions you want and click Import

Let AI write a full set of questions for you — optionally based on your own source material — instead of typing every question by hand.

1. Click Generate with AI

   In the quiz builder toolbar. Make sure your quiz already has a title — it's used to guide what the AI writes.

2. Optionally attach a source document

   Upload a PDF, HTML, Markdown, or plain text file to base the questions on. (Word and PowerPoint files aren't supported as a source yet.)

3. Choose how many questions and how many points each

   The number you can request is capped by your plan's questions-per-quiz limit.

4. Set a year level and difficulty, if you'd like

   Helps the AI target the right audience — both are optional.

5. Choose which question types the AI can use

   Leave every box checked to let the AI pick whatever fits best, or narrow it down to specific types. Only types your plan allows are offered.

6. Add any extra instructions

   Free text — for example, "focus on fractions" or "keep the wording simple."

7. Click Generate

   This can take a little while — the AI is writing your questions.

8. Review what comes back

   The generated questions are added straight into your quiz builder, exactly like questions you typed yourself — nothing is saved until you review them and click Save. Check them over, edit anything that needs adjusting, and remove any you don't want to keep.

1. Click Upload Questions

   In the quiz builder toolbar.

2. Choose your file and upload
3. Review the imported questions

   They're added to your quiz — check them over and adjust as needed before saving.

A quiz stays private — invisible to students — until you explicitly publish it.

1. Finish building and saving your quiz
2. Click Publish

   In the quiz builder toolbar. The quiz (and every question in it, unless individually locked/imported) becomes visible to enrolled students.

3. Retract if you need to make it private again

   Click Retract any time — this instantly hides it from students again without deleting anything.

1. Open your class
2. Click Class Results
3. Choose a quiz

   See every enrolled student's attempts and scores for that quiz, side by side.

1. Open the quiz
2. Click Export as PDF
3. Choose Worksheet or Answer Key

   A worksheet includes just the questions, ready to print; an answer key includes the correct answers too.

4. Download

1. Go to My Subscription

   From your account menu.

2. Upgrade

   Choose Plus or Premium and click Upgrade. You'll be taken to a secure Stripe checkout page — your card details are handled entirely by Stripe and never seen by GoMathScience. An upgrade applies immediately, with the extra amount charged right away.

3. Switch tiers

   Use Switch Plan to preview exactly what a change will cost before confirming it.

4. Downgrade or cancel

   Takes effect at the end of your current billing period — you keep full access until then, with no refund for the remaining time. You can reverse a scheduled downgrade or cancellation any time before it takes effect.

If you want to charge a fee for one of your classes, you'll need to connect a Stripe account first — this is a completely separate thing from your own GoMathScience subscription above. Fees students pay go straight to you, not to GoMathScience.

1. Go to your Teacher Hub and open the Payments tab
2. Click Connect Stripe Account
3. Complete Stripe's own setup steps

   Identity verification and bank details — Stripe collects and stores these directly; GoMathScience never sees them.

4. Check your status badge back in the Payments tab

   Not started, In progress, Action needed, or Active. You can only charge fees on a class once your account shows Active.

5. Watch for the requirements banner

   If Stripe needs something further from you (a document, a business detail), it's explained here in plain language — act on it promptly, since it can affect whether you keep getting paid.

Once your account is active, every fee a student has paid for your classes shows up right in your Teacher Hub — and refunds are handled through Stripe directly, not through GoMathScience.

1. Go to your Teacher Hub and open the Payments tab
2. Review Payments Received

   Which class, which student, how much, and its status — Paid, Awaiting Payment, Partially Refunded, or Fully Refunded.

3. Click Open Stripe Dashboard for full detail or to issue a refund

   Opens your own Stripe Express Dashboard in a new tab — this is where you actually process a refund or look into a dispute, not inside GoMathScience.

4. Enter the one-time code Stripe sends you

   The first time you open your dashboard in a new browser session, Stripe texts or emails a short verification code — this is standard Stripe account security, not something specific to GoMathScience.

5. Issue a refund from within Stripe, if needed

   Your Payments tab back in GoMathScience updates automatically once the refund is processed — there's nothing further to do on the GoMathScience side.

1. Go to the registration page

   Open go-math-science.com and choose Register.

2. Choose "Student" as your role

   If a parent already registered you, you may not need to do this — ask them first.

3. Fill in your details and submit
4. Verify your email

   Enter the code sent to your email to activate your account.

There are two ways to join a class: browse a public directory and request to join, or enter a joining code your teacher gave you directly.

Some classes charge a fee. If you join one, you'll be sent to a secure Stripe checkout page to pay — the fee goes directly to your teacher, not to GoMathScience.

1. Join or get approved for a paid class as normal

   Same steps as any other class — see Finding and Joining a Class.

2. You're redirected to Stripe's checkout page

   Enter your payment details there — GoMathScience never sees or stores your card details.

3. Your spot is held for 24 hours while you pay

   Shown under My Requests with a blue Payment required badge until payment is confirmed.

4. You're enrolled once payment is confirmed

   This can take a moment even after you finish paying — the class only activates once payment is fully confirmed, not the instant you're sent back to the site.

Any class you've requested to join but aren't enrolled in yet — whether it needs approval or payment — shows up here.

1. Go to Classes and look under My Requests

   Only appears if you have at least one request that isn't fully active yet — an already-enrolled class won't show here, only in your regular class list.

2. Check the badge

   Amber Awaiting approval means the teacher hasn't responded yet. Red Declined shows the teacher's reason — you can request the same class again afterward if you'd like. Blue Payment required means the class needs a fee; payment isn't available yet, so your place is simply held for a short time.

1. Go to your Student home page
2. Open Assignments

   Every assignment from every class you've joined is listed, with its due date.

3. Click an assignment to see its quiz (or quizzes)

1. Open the quiz and click Start
2. Choose a mode, if you're offered one

   Exam mode hides feedback until you finish; Practice mode shows you right away whether each answer was correct.

3. Choose a style, if you're offered one

   Step-by-step shows one question at a time with Next/Previous; List shows every question on one page.

4. Answer each question

   Then click Check Answer (Practice mode) to see if you're right, or move on and let it grade at the end (Exam mode).

5. Use Show Answer if you get stuck

   Where your teacher has allowed it — reveals the correct answer without grading your attempt.

6. Submit when you reach the end

   Your final score and, if enabled, an explanation for each question, are shown.

7. Download Certificate

   Download your certificate if you passed.

Every quiz page has built-in tools to have content read aloud, make text bigger, or switch to a higher-contrast color scheme — no separate app or extension needed.

If your teacher has turned this on, you'll see extra things happen as you answer, whether or not the quiz also has a full game attached.

1. Mute sound if you'd rather not hear it

   Click the speaker icon next to the score chip — this preference is remembered on this device.

Some quizzes replace the usual Check Answer screen with a full animated game. Answering correctly moves you forward — nothing about the correct answer is shown, so there's no "try again."

1. Click Start

   A 3-2-1 countdown plays before the game begins, and the screen switches to fullscreen automatically.

2. Answer each question as it appears

   You'll always be shown one question at a time — this can't be changed to a list while a game is active.

3. Watch your competitor react

   There's no answer reveal — instead you'll see a quick green flash (correct) or red flash (incorrect) on the question, and your racer/prey reacts immediately.

4. Use the fullscreen button to exit if needed

   It appears in the corner of the game screen — the usual toolbar isn't available while a game is running.

1. Go to My History

   From your Student home page.

2. Choose Quiz History or Practice History

   Quiz History covers graded attempts tied to assignments; Practice History covers ungraded practice runs.

3. Click 🔍 Review on a row, if it has one

   Opens a full page showing exactly how you answered that attempt, question by question, with your answer next to the correct one and any explanation your teacher added. Only attempts taken since this feature was added show a Review button — older attempts show a dash instead.

1. Go to My History

   From your Student home page.

2. Download Certificate

   Find the certificate icon next to the quiz you passed and click to download.

Some quizzes can be shared for anyone to try, no account required.

1. Open the shared link
2. Enter the pass code, if one was given to you
3. Enter your email and complete the "I'm not a robot" check

   You'll receive a confirmation email — this doesn't create a full account.

4. Take the quiz as normal

1. Go to the registration page

   Open go-math-science.com and choose Register.

2. Choose "Parent" as your role
3. Fill in your details and submit
4. Verify your email

   Enter the code sent to your email to activate your account.

There are two different ways to connect to a child, depending on whether they already have an account.

1. Go to My Children
2. Select a child
3. Open Classes

   See every class that child is enrolled in.

Just like a student joining directly, you can either browse a public directory of classes or use a joining code the teacher gave you.

The Progress Reports tab in your Parent Hub shows a child's quiz performance over time — a chart, a summary, and a table of recent attempts — either on screen or as a downloadable PDF.

1. Go to your Parent Hub and open the Progress Reports tab
2. Choose a child

   Only children linked and approved to your account appear here.

3. Choose a date range and granularity

   Defaults to the current Monday–Friday. Switch between daily, weekly, or monthly grouping.

4. Click View Report

   Shows a chart (blue = average score, yellow = how far that average is from the pass mark), a summary of sessions and anomalies, and a table of recent attempts. A session well below or above the recent trend is flagged as an anomaly and colored red (drop) or amber (spike) — this needs at least 3 recent sessions to kick in, so it won't flag anything for a child who's only just started.

5. Click Download PDF instead, if you'd like a copy to keep or share

   Same report, branded and ready to print or attach to an email.

A full, detailed history of every quiz your child has taken, with the option to review exactly how they answered any individual attempt.

1. Go to your Parent Hub and open the Quiz History tab
2. Select a child

   Only children linked and approved to your account appear here.

3. Click View History

   Loads a table with one row per quiz attempt: date, quiz name, score, points scored, total possible points, pass threshold, and pass/fail result.

4. Click Review on a row, if it has one

   Opens a full page showing exactly how your child answered that attempt, question by question, with their answer next to the correct one and any explanation their teacher added. Only attempts taken since this feature was added show a Review button — older attempts show a dash instead.

Instead of checking in yourself, have a progress report emailed to you automatically on a schedule.

1. Open the Progress Reports tab

   In your Parent Hub.

2. Click 📧 Scheduled Reports

   Top-right of the panel.

3. Turn scheduling on
4. Choose weekly or monthly

   Weekly reports arrive every Monday, covering the previous Monday–Friday. Monthly reports arrive on the 1st, covering the previous calendar month.

5. Enter the email address to send to
6. Choose which children to include

   Leave every box unchecked to include all your linked children in one report.

7. Save

1. Go to My Subscription
2. Upgrade, switch, downgrade, or cancel

   Works exactly the same way as a Teacher's subscription — see Managing Your Subscription for the full billing details (checkout, timing, and refund policy).

An Integrator account is for an outside system (a school's own portal, a mobile app, a reporting tool) that connects to GoMathScience's data automatically instead of through a person clicking around the website. If you're a developer connecting a system to GoMathScience, this section is for you.

1. Go to the registration page

   Open go-math-science.com and choose Register.

2. Choose "Integrator" as your role
3. Fill in your details

   Along with your name and email, provide the domain(s) and/or IP address(es) your system will connect from — this is how the site recognizes your requests as legitimate later.

4. Submit and verify your email

A Manager on the site needs to finish setting up your account before your requests will work.

1. Contact the site's Manager after registering

   Let them know you've signed up as an Integrator so they can complete activation on their end — see the Manager's activation steps.

2. Wait for confirmation

   Until this is done, every request you make will be refused.

3. Test a simple request once notified

   Confirm you're getting a normal response before building anything further on top of it.

Every request your system makes needs to identify itself as coming from your registered account, using one of three methods your Manager sets up for you.

1. Include your account name on every request

   Along with which of the two working methods above you're using.

2. Match the method you registered with

   If you registered by domain, requests must actually come from that domain; if by IP, from that IP.

Your account can make a limited number of requests per calendar month, based on your plan (or a custom limit your Manager may have set specifically for you).

1. Know your limit

   Ask your Manager, or check your usage dashboard.

2. Watch for the "limit reached" response

   Once you hit your monthly quota, further requests are refused until the count resets at the start of the next month.

3. Ask about a higher limit if you're consistently near it

   Your Manager can raise your specific quota, or mark your account unlimited.

1. Sign in with your Integrator account
2. Go to My Usage

   See how many requests you've made this month against your quota.

For the complete, technical list of everything your system can request — exact addresses, parameters, and response formats.

1. Go to /rest-api

   On the site.

2. Browse by category

   Endpoints are grouped by topic (Quiz Management, Question Bank, Subscriptions & Billing, and more) — each has its own page describing exactly what it does and how to call it.
