MobyMax Contests turn learning into friendly competition! Teachers can create custom contests by choosing start and end dates, selecting the subjects that will earn points, and deciding whether to run the contest just for their own students or the entire school.
Contests can be time-based or points-based, and leaderboards (optional) add an extra layer of excitement. You can even award prizes right within MobyMax to celebrate your students’ hard work.
