Finally, everyone speaks.
Extempore Live! helps teachers bring authentic speaking into class without extra setup or classroom chaos. Students join a private video conversation with their peers, Extempore records it automatically, and the recording is saved for feedback and grading.
More speaking time, less setup
Extempore Live! provides teachers with an easy process for live conversations: take attendance, make groups, start the activity, monitor rooms, and grade the recordings later.
Smooth student experience
Recent updates to Extempore Live! focus on faster start times, improved stability, and more accurate status updates as students transition from lobbies to live conversations.
Minimal recording issues
Students do not need to press record. Teachers can see who is waiting, who has joined, and who may need help.

Live Speaking Practice
Students need time to speak with each other in real time. Extempore Live! simplifies that. Teachers can set up interpersonal speaking tasks, save recordings, and provide feedback and scores upon response submission.

Dashboard
The Extempore Live! dashboard allows instructors to directly join conversations in order to monitor engagement, help with questions, or participate themselves. In the dashboard, instructors have full control: they can reset rooms, see who needs help, and track group progress all in one place.
🪂
Drop In!
Sometimes students need tech support or have questions about the prompt during their conversation. In these scenarios, teachers can use the Drop In feature to join live rooms and help students during their interpersonal assessments, minimizing technical disruptions and restarts.

Individualized feedback
Even though each group submits the same response, within the gradebook instructors can still leave unique feedback and scores for each student. This feedback is only visible to the corresponding student and no one else in the group.
