Inviting Students to a Quiz and Managing Invites
You can either invite your students live or prepare their invite instructions in advance. You can also reset both links and/or QR codes. Follow this guide to find out how.
Invite Students to a Live Quiz
Invite instructions are easily found after you launch a quiz.
After launching an quiz, select 'Invite Students' to reveal instructions.
Students can either scan the QR code to join the quiz or visit gosocrative.com and enter the room name. Students can also enter the room name from socrative.com, near the top of the page, under 'Joining an activity?'
💡Inviting students to an activity only requires a room link or name. They do not need to create a Socrative account
Prepare Invite Instructions Ahead of Time
You may want to send join instructions to students ahead of launching a quiz or embed them into a PowerPoint, slideshow, or learning management system.
Invite instructions can always be found by selecting 'Rooms' from the top of the page.
Select the 'Share icon' next to the room name.
From here, you will have the option to copy a direct link to the Room and/or download the QR code.
Reset Invite Links and QR Codes
The Room link and QR code can be reset to provide access to a new set of students and revoke access for the previous group of students.
Select 'Rooms' from the top of the page.
Select the 'Share icon' next to the room name.
Under the 'Room link for...' field, select the circular arrow icon to the right of the 'Copy Link' button. Resetting will invalidate the previous room link and QR code.
✍️ If the room has a roster, students will require their Student ID to join. Learn about creating Rosters and Student IDs.
As students join their room, they'll be able to participate in all of the activities launched until they log out. If there's no activity running, the message below will be shown:
*Rostered Rooms is a Pro feature in Socrative
*Please note that Quick Join via QR code or URL is not available for Rooms connected to Showbie.
