Pacing matters during tests
A visible exam timer helps students manage time across sections. It is especially useful for timed writing, exit quizzes, standardized practice, and classroom assessments with a fixed end time.
Suggested checkpoints
For longer assessments, announce halfway remaining, ten minutes remaining, and five minutes remaining. For short quizzes, a five-minute warning is usually enough.
Low-distraction design
The page avoids game-like visuals so it can sit on a projector during assessments without drawing attention away from the task.
