After schools started closing, 97% of inbound emails to coronavirus@desmos.com were teachers asking us to help them send async feedback to students.
Huge 🙌's to colleagues Corey Hunt, @jenny_wales, @eluberoff for getting this new feature to its debut. xitter.cf/Desmos/status/12422833…
Tonight, we're rolling out a beta version of our distance teachers' #1 request:
✨ WRITTEN ✨ FEEDBACK ✨ IN ✨ ACTIVITIES ✨
Turn it on at teacher.desmos.com/labs.
And see how it works right here. 👇
