What it asks
Write multiple-choice questions that give a problem and ask which method, rule or theorem solves it, with wrong options that are plausible methods. Recall and application, in the words of the course; the explanation says why. Every question answerable from the material.

About this kit.
Multiple-choice questions on which method, rule or theorem applies, so the method is known before the arithmetic starts.
What the mathematics kits are
The mathematics kits run from counting and the first number bonds through tables, fractions, percentages, algebra, geometry, statistics and calculus. The arithmetic kits are made by rule: every time one opens, the numbers are new, so a child can do the same kit every day and never see the same sum twice. The higher kits are written from your own textbook, chapter by chapter, so the questions use your course's notation and methods.
Why they are built this way
Mathematics is learned by doing many problems with feedback, and it is the one subject where a fresh problem can be made by rule without limit. A worksheet has twenty sums; a rule kit has as many as the student has minutes. The explanation after each answer shows the method, so a wrong answer becomes a worked example.
How to use them
For daily practice, open the rule kit for the child's stage and let them do ten minutes; the dashboard shows what they missed. For a course, paste the chapter and let Procto AI write from it, in the show-your-working shape where the method earns marks. Use the estimate shape for measurement and the expression shape for algebra, and set the tolerances.
Written from your material
This kit is a recipe: the shape, the number of questions, the sections and the instructions Procto AI follows. Paste your own material and the questions are written from it, each with the passage its answer came from. Procto AI is asked to keep to your material, and each key is yours to check; every question is yours to edit before anyone sees it.
The shape: multiple choice
The workhorse of assessment: one right answer among plausible options, marked at once, comparable across every student. Written well, the wrong options map the misconceptions in the room.
EdProcto marks selection questions by rule the moment the answer is given. Several-answer shapes give credit for the part that is right when partial credit is on; negative marking takes one over the number of wrong options, so guessing earns nothing on average; a confidence rating earns a bonus when sure and right and a larger penalty when sure and wrong, so it pays only when it is honest. Options can be shuffled per student, and the analysis shows which wrong option beat the right one.
Taking it
Open it in study mode for the answer and the explanation after each question, and a retry of only what you missed. Switch to exam mode for the real conditions. It comes due again in a few days; the dashboard shows what is due and what you missed last time. Share it with a code for a class, print it as a paper, or host it on a screen for a room.
Questions.
- What is in the Which method? (secondary) kit?
- Multiple-choice questions on which method, rule or theorem applies, so the method is known before the arithmetic starts. It writes 10 questions from the material you paste, in the Multiple choice shape, and is asked to keep each to it.
- Does it cost anything?
- A free account opens every kit. Procto AI’s writing runs on a monthly allowance that the free plan includes; a children’s kit uses none of it, because its questions are made by rule.
- What happens after the quiz?
- The study screen shows the answer and the explanation after each question, then the questions missed, and offers a retry of those. Come back in a few days and take it again: what is still right then is what is known.
