Study Activities
Skills are building blocks for accomplishing a task in real life. Assign skills to your students and watch as they progress with self-paced, adaptive instruction. Students can learn either by clicking "Master this skill" or by clicking on the three dots to view resources available to study.
Answer 5 questions correctly to complete a study session.
Scavenger Hunts
These short learning activities help students work toward skill mastery while focusing their attention on a specific concept. Use these targeted activities as bellringers to introduce a new unit or use them as a springboard for whole group discussion. QuantHub resources often have Case Studies at the end of each resource that serve as excellent discussion starters.
Click on "Assignment" next to a resource to copy a link to a specific resource-centered activity, known as Scavenger Hunts. From here, you can distribute these links, or assignments, for students to complete.

When completing a scavenger hunt, read the question, find the answer in the resource, and answer the question.
Skill Checks
Skill checks allow the learner to test out of skills they feel they already know, allowing them to skip the normal route of answering a lot of study activities to reach skill mastery.
To complete a skill check, or test out, hover your mouse over the three dots next to the skill name.
To successfully test out you will have to answer three questions correctly in three minutes. If you get any question wrong, the test will end and you will have to master the skill by completing study activities.
To successfully test out, you will have to answer 3 questions correctly in under 3 minutes.
