The problem

The math doesn't work out

Here is a simple example showing the volume of problems a math teacher might follow up on every week.

Impossible to review every problem

In every lesson, teachers want to help every student who needs it, but in most cases that isn't possible.

Limited overview

It is difficult for teachers to identify what students are struggling with before they are tested on the material.

Problem library

Make your problems once and use them again

Your problems are kept in collections that follow you from year to year. Share collections with colleagues and put together an assignment in under a minute.

Your old worksheets into Alfa in a minute

You can upload an old worksheet booklet or pages from a book and the problems appear in a sorted collection. You start building a library of your best and favourite problems that you can reuse from year to year. If your school hasn't enabled our AI features yet, we add the problems for you within two working days.

Assignments, timed tasks and tests

Pick the problems, pick groups and publish the assignment.

Groups

Support for every student

Students within a class are rarely in the same place. You can give different assignments to different groups. Students only see their own assignments, not the grouping.

Flexible assignment

Students who know more get problems that suit them better. Those who have fallen behind get more help to catch up. Different emphasis for each group, so no group is left behind.

For students

No extra effort for students

Students work on paper as usual. They open the problem, press one button, take a photo and crop it. The solution is with the teacher.

  1. Nemandi opnar dæmið og sér einn takka: Taka mynd

    Opens the problem

  2. Myndavélin opnast og nemandinn tekur mynd af útreikningunum á blaðinu

    Takes a photo

  3. Nemandinn dregur hornin svo aðeins dæmið fer með

    Crops it

  4. Svarið x minna en mínus einn er sent og nemandinn fær niðurstöðuna Vel gert

    The solution is with the teacher

No extra time

Students work on paper as before. Handing in the solution takes no time at all.

Everything in one place

Every assignment and deadline in one list, so students always know what's next.

Feedback straight to the student

The result and the teacher's comment appear alongside the problem itself.

Privacy

Built for the school environment from the ground up

GDPR and privacy

We sign a data processing agreement with every school. Student data is stored within the EEA and not used for any other purpose unless the school specifically agrees.

A safe way to use AI

AI reads the handwritten working for the teacher, who always has the final say. It runs in Europe, the work is never used to train other companies' models, and the school can switch it off.

No pupil names needed

Students sign in with a printed code. We never receive pupils' names, emails or ID numbers.
