Unlock these for your students as you move through the lesson content together as a class. We've designed our lessons to be teacher-led and intentionally only use technology where we see it making the most difference for student wellbeing outcomes. Wherever technology goes, distraction tends to follow! We've set up our lessons to minimise student distractions and help you move through lesson content together: as a class.  ### Unlocking questions in class You don't need a code to unlock questions for students. Follow the steps below: 1. #### **Click *Present*** Navigate to the lesson you want to deliver from your class page. Click ***Present*** at the top of the page: ![Present button highlighted](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/unlock-quiz-present-button-highlighted.png?width=670&height=74&name=unlock-quiz-present-button-highlighted.png) **⚠️ Important:** Unlocking is not available in the lesson preview on the ***Prepare*** page. 1. #### **Click Unlock questions** Every question slide has a toolbar above its questions. Click **Unlock questions** to open the questions for students on their devices. Click **Lock questions** when you want to stop answering on that slide. ![Question slide in Present with the Unlock questions button highlighted in the toolbar](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/present-question-toolbar-locked-highlighted.png?width=670&height=381&name=present-question-toolbar-locked-highlighted.png) To open every question in the lesson at once, click **More actions (⋮)** in the toolbar and select **Unlock whole lesson**. The toolbar also shows how many students have answered, for example **12/25 answered**. 2. **Share student responses** Click **Show answers** in the toolbar to reveal answers on your screen. Click **Hide answers** to hide them again. The slide remembers your choice for that class. This is a great way to prompt discussion. - **Quizzes:** the correct answer is highlighted, with a count of how many students picked each option. No names are shown. - **Polls:** you'll see a count for each option. - **Open questions and tables:** step through answers one at a time with the arrows, or pick one from the list. **💡 Tip:** On your screen, a locked slide says **Unlock questions so everyone can answer** on each card. Once unlocked, students will be able to answer. **Device-free school?** You'll only see the **Show answers** button. Once answers are shown, polls show the average result across Wellio schools, and open questions and tables show the example answer. **Teaching an older lesson?** Lessons built before slide decks still present the way they did, so you may still see the lock icon and **Responses** toggle. ### Can I edit these questions? If you need to change a question, you’ll need to edit the lesson before class gets underway. You'll also need Admin permissions in Wellio to do this. If you're a classroom teacher, ask your school's Wellio admin to make the change. Check out our help guide: **[How to Edit a Lesson.](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-edit-a-lesson?hsLang=en)**   ### I'm a student. How do I unlock my questions? Only your teacher can unlock questions. They unlock each question during the lesson, in ***Present*** mode. If a question still looks blurry, it's locked. Ask your teacher to unlock it for your class. `` - [Getting Started](https://help.wellioeducation.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting started as a teacher](https://help.wellioeducation.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#getting-started-as-a-teacher) - [Getting students started](https://help.wellioeducation.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#getting-students-started) - [IT Setup](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#main-content) - [SSO](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#sso) - [Whitelisting](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#whitelisting) - [Teacher & Class Enrolments](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#teacher-class-enrolments) - [For Admins](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#main-content) - [IT Setup](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#it-setup) - [Onboarding](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#onboarding) - [Planning your sequences](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#planning-your-sequences) - [Managing accounts](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#managing-accounts) - [Planning Your Sequence](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#planning-your-sequence) - [Lesson Tools & Delivery](https://help.wellioeducation.com/lesson-tools-delivery?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Delivering a lesson](https://help.wellioeducation.com/lesson-tools-delivery?hsLang=en#delivering-a-lesson) - [Editing content](https://help.wellioeducation.com/lesson-tools-delivery?hsLang=en#editing-content) - [For Students](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-students?hsLang=en) - [Insights](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Activity Dashboard](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#activity-dashboard) - [Surveys](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#surveys) - [Student Profiles](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#student-profiles) - [Articles For Teachers](https://help.wellioeducation.com/articles-for-teachers?hsLang=en) - [Troubleshooting & Help](https://help.wellioeducation.com/troubleshooting-help?hsLang=en) - [Teacher and Class Enrolment](https://help.wellioeducation.com/teacher-and-class-enrolment?hsLang=en) - [Parent Webinars](https://help.wellioeducation.com/parent-webinars?hsLang=en) - [Knowledge](https://help.wellioeducation.com/knowledge?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Professional Learning Resources for Schools](https://help.wellioeducation.com/knowledge?hsLang=en#professional-learning-resources-for-schools) [![Untitled design](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hubfs/Untitled%20design.svg "Untitled design")](https://www.wellioeducation.com) Teach wellbeing with confidence.
