The app ties student Geography accounts with existing PiXL Maths credentials. Moving forward you will need just 1 account to access all PiXL apps (dependent on whether your school has access to a specific app). Staff will need to ensure that students have been uploaded to the central register and have been allocated to a Geography class to be able to access this app.
Also in this update we have changed how staff will interact with student information making the data we store more secure.

Staff scoreboard now includes a toggle between engagement points and achievement score.
Staff can edit the points of individual students now through "Edit a student" under "Class admin".
Students can now link their Geography App account to their Maths App account (editable under their profile). Eventually students will be prompted to use their Maths App account details to access all apps. For now the link is being made.

New topic selector. Staff can now reduce down the number of topics shown to students under "Take a test" using version 1.61 (both students and staff need this version to benefit from this feature).
Staff can also take it a step further and you can eliminate specific questions that you don't want as they are not part of the specification you are delivering to students.
Staff, go to "Class admin" and then select "Activity select".
