New Delhi [India], May 6: At a time when education systems globally are rethinking how learning should be measured, TeachBetter.ai -- a teacher-first AI platform featuring 20+ AI tools, 100+ interactive simulations, and support for 80+ languages -- today announced the launch of Version 5.0, introducing a groundbreaking innovation: PaperQR Live Quiz. Trusted by thousands of teachers across India, Kenya, the Philippines, and other countries, the platform continues to drive real classroom impact at scale. PaperQR Live Quiz is an AI-powered, device-free classroom assessment system designed to make real-time learning visible, measurable, and actionable, at scale.A breakthrough in AI-powered classroom infrastructure enabling continuous assessment at scale, aligned with NEP 2020
This launch marks a significant step forward in solving one of education's most persistent challenges: the gap between teaching and actual learning.

Why Real-Time Assessment Matters More Than Ever
For decades, classrooms have followed a predictable pattern -- teaching happens over weeks or months, and learning is evaluated through periodic or final examinations.
However, extensive educational research and policy frameworks, including India's National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, highlight a critical shift: Assessment must move from "assessment of learning" to "assessment for learning."
This shift calls for a fundamental transformation in how learning is measured and reinforced.
NEP 2020 explicitly emphasizes:
- Continuous and comprehensive evaluation over episodic testing
- Competency-based learning focused on application, not memorization
- Integration of real-time feedback loops within classroom instruction
- Gradual reduction in the weightage of high-stakes board and term examinations
This direction is not just policy-driven -- it is backed by decades of global research.
Global research in formative assessment further reinforces this:
- Students show significantly higher learning gains when assessed continuously rather than episodically
- Immediate feedback improves concept retention and engagement
- Live in-class assessments increase student attentiveness and participation
Yet, despite clear evidence, implementation remains limited. The primary reason is not lack of intent -- but lack of practical, scalable solutions.
Conducting real-time, in-class assessments for every topic, in every class, for every student is operationally complex and time-intensive, especially in classrooms with 30-60 students.
Existing solutions such as clicker-based response systems attempt to address this challenge, but introduce new barriers:
- Dependence on specialized hardware devices for every student
- High procurement, maintenance, and replacement costs
- Infrastructure and training requirements
- Limited scalability in large or resource-constrained classrooms
As a result, these solutions remain confined to well-funded institutions and are not viable for mass education systems, particularly in countries like India where affordability, simplicity, and scalability are critical.
Introducing PaperQR Live Quiz: Real-Time Assessment Without Devices for students
TeachBetter.ai's PaperQR Live Quiz solves this problem with a simple yet powerful approach: Teachers can create a class on the platform, add students and every student is automatically assigned a unique, multidirectional QR response card, mapped to their name and roll number. Just print these PaperQR Cards and distribute them to respective students.
How to conduct live quizzes in the classroom:
- The teacher generates using PaperQR Quiz on her device and asks questions
- Students respond to each question by orienting their PaperQR card with the correct option (A, B, C or D) at the top
- The teacher scans the classroom with students holding their PaperQR Cards, using a phone or laptop camera
- Responses of all students are captured instantly and accurately. Scoring, detailed analytics and insights are generated automatically.
No devices. No logins. No infrastructure dependency. Just real-time visibility of learning -- for every student, in every classroom.

Transforming Classrooms from Passive to Interactive
PaperQR Live Quiz fundamentally redefines how classrooms function.
In most classrooms today, students spend a significant portion of their time copying notes, with engagement remaining largely passive. Teachers often move forward assuming understanding, while actual learning gaps remain hidden until exams -- where outcomes are finally measured, often too late to intervene.
PaperQR changes this dynamic in real time.
By enabling every student to actively respond during the lesson, it transforms the classroom into an interactive, participative environment. Teachers no longer have to rely on assumptions -- they can instantly see who has understood the concept and who needs support. Learning gaps are identified on the spot, allowing immediate correction and reinforcement.
This creates a fundamental shift in classroom behavior and outcomes -- from note-taking to true concept understanding, from dependence on high-stakes exams to continuous learning, and from teaching without visibility to teaching with real-time feedback.
"Education has known for decades what needs to change. Policies like NEP 2020 have clearly laid out the direction -- continuous assessment, real-time feedback, and a shift away from rote memorization. But the real challenge has always been execution at scale. That's where AI comes in -- not as an automation tool, but as a transformational technology.
At TeachBetter.ai, we are building AI as core classroom infrastructure -- simple, accessible, and designed for mass adoption. Innovations like PaperQR Live Quiz ensure that even the most resource-constrained classrooms can implement continuous, real-time assessment without any dependency on devices or expensive systems. This is how we bridge the gap between policy and practice -- and enable the kind of classroom transformation that education has been waiting for, for decades."
