Take a break
Press β and "β I need a break". Your teacher is told quietly, and in a test with a time limit your clock stops. Press "I'm ready to go on" when you are ready.
Using a screen reader or keyboard
- Each new question is focused, so it is read out first.
- "Answer saved", "Not sent yet" and time warnings are announced.
- Pictures are described when your teacher has added a description.
- Drawing questions cannot be answered without drawing; use Raise hand to ask for another way.
