How Curriculate Works
A simple loop: choose your topic and lesson length, Curriculate plans a time-fit task set, launch a live session, students rotate through stations, work is captured automatically, and you finish with clear reports you can reuse next time.
Everything runs as a repeatable flow you can use again and again.
Curriculate plans the experience first — then generates tasks to match
When you request a 45-minute set, Curriculate uses each task type’s expected completion time to choose how many tasks to include and what mix fits best — including an intentional movement break without overusing it.
In a bit more detail
The goal is to keep teacher setup fast, keep student directions simple, and make the end-of-session reporting automatic.
Build a Task Set (< 5 minutes)
Set your goal and time window — Curriculate plans the mix, then generates the tasks.
- Choose your topic, grade, and lesson length (e.g., 45 minutes).
- Curriculate plans the right number of tasks based on expected task durations.
- The planner selects a grade-appropriate mix (retrieval, reasoning, collaboration, creativity).
- Movement/body-break tasks are placed intentionally — capped and never back-to-back.
- Save it so you can reuse it (and tweak it) anytime — even share with a substitute.
Launch a Live Session
Start the session on the teacher screen and get teams ready.
- Teams join quickly (scan/code).
- You control pacing live (start, pause, rotate, end) — and the task set itself is planned to fit your time window.
- Everything is tracked automatically while students work.
- At launch, teachers can choose single-room or multi-room.
Students Rotate & Complete Tasks
Students work station-by-station with clear on-screen prompts.
- One device per team is enough (others can watch/assist).
- Stations are QR-coded posters – one-time print and post.
- Keeps students moving, collaborating, and focused.
Work is Captured & Organized
Responses, scores, and timestamps are saved without extra teacher steps.
- Team answers are stored by station and task type.
- Optional scoring and feedback can be generated automatically.
- No “paper chase” after class—everything is already sorted.
- Grades ready for the grade book!
Reports & Next Steps
End the session and review what happened—fast.
- Teacher report: whole-class overview + station performance.
- Student/team report: what they did + what to improve next time.
- Reuse the task set next week with quick edits.
Recommended devices
Students can participate with phones, but the best experience is when each team has a shared screen.
- Teams collaborate around a single screen (fewer logins, fewer distractions).
- Teachers can run a class with a small cart/roaming set of tablets.
- Phones still work for “extra hands,” quick look-ups, or accessibility needs.
Many schools already have tablets (classroom sets or carts). If not, Curriculate still works on student phones—just expect a slightly smaller, more “tap-heavy” experience for younger students.
Ready to try it with your class?
Start with one lesson, 4–6 stations, and teams of 3. If you have access to a tablet cart, you’re basically set.
