ClassPoint is one of those tools designed to perfectly blend other software that teachers, until now, have been using separately. The idea being that this can save time and effort with one do-it-all solution.
The combination here is of the ever-helpful slides-based tools, such as PowerPoint, with quiz-style apps that allow for more measurable engagement.
This does plenty more though, thanks to AI and the ability to gamify learning, all while offering real-time feedback to educators.
This guide aims to lay out all you need to know about ClassPoint to see if it could save you time and enhance your instruction.
What is ClassPoint?
ClassPoint is a digital tool that combines slide-based teaching with interactive assessment options to offer a more dynamic class experience.
This integrates directly with Microsoft PowerPoint so teachers can use current tools and slides to make it all more interactive.
The app offers quizzes and polls that allow educators to measure student answers, live. This also helps teachers to turn slides into interactive whiteboards, with slide annotation live as the class works through materials.
To be clear, this works within PowerPoint, so existing class materials can be reused rather than doing everything from scratch.
How does ClassPoint work?
ClassPoint works as a PowerPoint add-on, so you can get this installed and then work on your slide decks directly.
Teachers can work with the interactive elements right there from within the slides. Students are sent a join code that allows them to interact using their own devices. Everyone can be working on the main whiteboard screen, with interactions sent live from their devices.
So while teachers are presenting as normal, students are able to respond with answers to quizzes, annotation drawing, or even uploads from their devices. The results of all this can be shown immediately on screen at the front of class.
Also integrated is an AI quiz generator. This scans the slides you're using and automatically offers questions that will work with that presentation. That can mean a huge saving on preparation time for teachers as well as the ability to get into a quiz on any slide section, even if previously unplanned.
What are the best ClassPoint features?
ClassPoint is all real-time so feedback from students is live, allowing teachers to adapt their teaching -- stopping longer on a topic or moving on -- as the lesson progresses.
That AI quiz generator is a really big value as saves time, offering more spontaneity and the ability to adjust these to suit different ability levels.
Teachers can gamify everything as there is the option to award stars, track progress, and even display leaderboards to help with motivation and participation.
Thanks for the ability to annotate directly, this allows any PowerPoint slide to become an interactive whiteboard canvas. This is for teachers, live, but also for students that want to add text, images, audio, video, drawings and more.
Usefully, for teachers, this can help with tracking of participation, with built-in reporting tools.
How much does ClassPoint cost?
ClassPoint offers a tiered pricing model that includes a free plan. The levels break down into:
Free (Basic): Limited features, small class sizes, and capped quizzes.
Pro: Around $8/month (billed annually), unlocks larger classes, unlimited questions, and more advanced tools.
Premium: Custom pricing for schools, with features such as unlimited AI credits and deeper analytics.
The free tier is functional enough for trying it out, but most of the more powerful features, especially AI and analytics, sit behind the paid plans.
