SparkClass
NZ electrical training
Class-centred practice for NZ electrical learners — from pre-trade through apprenticeship.
SparkClass is a class-centred learning web app for New Zealand electrical training — built for pre-trade and apprenticeship programmes. Learners practise unit-standard topics, join live quiz sessions, and ask questions — named or anonymous — inside their class. Practice and engagement around public NZQA unit standards, not formal assessment or credentials.
Features
Built around your class
Students join with an invite code. Practice, live sessions, and Q&A stay inside the class boundary — trainers see their roster and per-student progress; peers see only what they should.
Practice by unit-standard topic
Drill quizzes mapped to NZ electrical training topics — multiple choice, true/false, numeric and guided recall, plus parametric maths that generates fresh values for each attempt.
Live class sessions
Trainers host live quiz sessions with a PIN join code, timed questions, and a class leaderboard — built for tablets and phones in the room.
Ask without the spotlight
Class Q&A with an optional anonymous mode for peers. Trainers moderate pins and replies; identity on anonymous posts stays hidden until an intentional Reveal for moderation (audit-logged).
Explore when you get stuck
Keyword links and an Explore handoff open Gemini or ChatGPT with a prefilled prompt — helpful after a wrong answer or skip, without putting AI keys in the learner’s browser.
Trainer console
Invite-only trainer accounts, class roster, progress overview, live hosting, and Q&A moderation — with a primary admin trainer who can approve additional tutors.
