How it works

  1. Set your activity's duration.
  2. Start the timer and project it for the class.
  3. Students track progress with the large digits and progress bar.

The method

A large countdown display paired with a visual progress bar makes remaining time easy to read at a glance, even from the back of a classroom.

FAQ

Can this be projected on a classroom screen?

Yes — the large digit display and progress bar are designed to be readable from across a room when projected or shown on a smart board.

Can I set custom durations?

Yes — set any duration for the activity you're timing, from a quick quiz to a longer group project.

Does it make a sound when time is up?

The visual countdown reaching zero is the primary cue — pair it with your own classroom signal if you want an audible alert too.
