Rushed, held back, or work erased

How Pencil Spaces solves it
The teacher duplicates the worksheet as one private copy per student, with the problem locked in place. A fast student finishes and moves on. A slower one works at her own pace with her own calculator open, and nobody erases her work.
- Private BoardsAvailablePrivate Boards give each student their own board inside the group lesson, so everyone does their own thinking.
- Duplicate BoardsAvailableDuplicate a board as shared, private or one private copy per participant, kept in a folder, in a click.
- Lock ItemsAvailableLock Items fixes a worksheet, graph or diagram in place, so everyone writes on it without moving it.
- GadgetsAvailableGadgets open a calculator, graphing calculator or periodic table only the person who opened it can see, right beside the lesson.
The usual way
Everyone works on one board, at one pace.
