To be honest, I wasn't planning on writing this. With COVID-19, I'm sure your inbox has been inundated with every single company reaching out to share what they're doing.

A bunch of that stuff is helpful and cool, but it's a lot of stuff. And perhaps the last thing you all need right now is more information thrown at you.

However, over the last few days, many of you have shared with us how you're using Gimkit remotely. And even more of you have asked how to use Gimkit remotely. With that, I thought I would compile it all together in one place: The Gimkit Guide to Remote Learning!

The easiest way to use Gimkit remotely is with assignments. With assignments, students can play Gimkit at anytime and anywhere! That means you don't need to host a live game, share a game code, or even be online at all!

When you create an assignment, you'll select a Kit you want students to play, and how much money you want each student to earn. The target cash amount you set will depend on your student's comfort with Gimkit and the upgrades.

By default, we set the target cash amount to $500,000. For someone that is moderately comfortable with Gimkit and the content, this takes about 15 minutes to reach. Feel free to adjust the cash amount as you go!

After you create an assignment, you'll get a link. Just share that link with students and they'll be able to play the assignment. The link never expires!

Assignments work a bit differently than live games. Instead of students competing against one another, students attempt to reach the cash goal at their own pace. What that, the game is focused on just the individualized elements. That means no Icers, Reducers, or other powerups that involve other players.

When a student completes the assignment, you'll see it on your end along with their accuracy.
