With MobyMax Contests, students can learn while having a blast competing with their peers. When creating a new contest, teachers can choose when it starts and ends, as well as which subject(s) will award contest points. Whether you want to focus on Math, Language, or any other subject, MobyMax Contests can be customized to fit your needs.

MobyMax Contests can be setup for an individual teacher's Students, or for the entire school. This flexibility means you can tailor contests to your class size and subject area, ensuring maximum participation and engagement. Students love seeing their names on the leaderboard, which ranks students based on contest points. Teachers can choose to turn the leaderboard on or off, depending on their preference. And don't forget, teachers can also reward students directly in MobyMax, making those well-earned achievements even more meaningful.
