An all-in-one assessment platform
Extempore first started as a basic recording platform, eliminating the hassle of pulling students out of the classroom and spending hours and even multiple class periods conducting oral exams.
Many years later, the platform now hosts practice and assessments for all modes of communication, providing preparation and content for STAMP, AP (including simulated conversations), WIDA, TELPAS, Seal of Biliteracy, and many other types of high-stakes assessments.
Watch the 60-second video below to see the platform in action, and scroll down to learn more about how Extempore facilitates both formative practice and summative assessments, helping your students build confidence along the way.
🔒
Secure Assessments
High-stakes assessments on Extempore disable copy/paste functionality and, among other safeguards, feature browser navigation warnings that display when students leave the platform. Keep concerns about academic integrity at bay and focus on what really matters: authentic student responses.
👥
Live Interpersonal Conversations
Host synchronous group conversations with Extempore Sync, with rooms that record automatically and responses that allow for individualized scoring and feedback. Group students into rooms, attach rubrics and multimedia, and even join the fun yourself as an instructor via our Drop-In tool.
🎯
High-Stakes Exam Prep
Practice for AP® (including simulated conversation - right), STAMP, AAPPL, TELPAS, WIDA ACCESS, and other high-stakes exams. Replicate an authentic testing environment by importing authentic pre-made practice content, or build your own practice and configure parameters like timers to build student comfort with exam formats.
