Turn your course into a quest for teen groups

Teenagers try harder when there's a story to follow. Switch on Quest for a class and the course becomes a treasure hunt: each lesson opens a new region on the map, each section is a trial, and correct answers earn the pieces of a puzzle.

How a quest lesson works

You run the lesson as usual. Quest sits in a side panel of the live lesson, so the exercises stay the same; the game just gives them a reason.

  • The group votes for a spot on the map. It may hide a bonus, a trap or nothing at all.
  • The trial is the next section of your lesson: the team has to reach the pass mark together.
  • A passed trial earns a puzzle piece and moves the story on.
  • At the end of each chapter the class votes on what happens next.

Heroes with powers

Each student picks a hero: a Healer, a Warrior or a Wizard. Every hero has a power the team can use a couple of times per lesson, such as removing a trap or letting one student fall short of the pass mark. Charges for powers come from points students earn in exercises and homework, so practice at home pays off in class.

A secret phrase and a treasure

Every finished lesson reveals part of a secret phrase, written as numbers. When the class has collected every puzzle piece, they see the treasure. You can write your own legend, phrase and treasure, or use the ready-made story: six regions and 48 chapters.

Only where it fits

Quest is off by default and is switched on per class. Adult groups never see it, and you can turn it off at any time without losing results.

Questions and answers

Do I need to prepare special materials for the quest?

No. The trials are the sections of the lessons you already have. The story, map and puzzle are built in.

What age is it for?

It works best with groups of about 10 to 16 year olds. Adult classes don't see it.

Can I change the story?

Yes. You can rewrite any chapter, the two choices after it, the legend, the secret phrase and the treasure.

Does it work in online lessons?

Yes. Quest runs inside the Letros live lesson, so students join from any device.
