What is the Unlock App?

The Unlock app allows admins to create reward-based challenges where students can earn emotes or avatar accessories by answering questions. Admins can choose rewards, create custom questions using several question formats, and save configurations for students to interact with. The app also includes engagement tracking so admins can monitor unlock attempts and successful completions.

Tips for Unlock

• Match the question to the reward! A holiday emote paired with a question about a class holiday lesson makes the reward feel earned.

• Use Open Response for participation. Any answer unlocks the reward, which makes it a good fit for reflection prompts where there's no single right answer.

• Place it somewhere worth walking to. Tucking the Unlock app into a corner of your world gives students a reason to explore.

• Create a set. Build several challenges from the same accessory pack so students can collect a full outfit over a unit or a week.

• Check your engagement data. If very few students are unlocking, the question may be harder — or harder to find — than you expected.
