A clearer test timer for students and invigilators
Students should not have to calculate how long remains or repeatedly ask when an assessment finishes. ZaynClock keeps the countdown, current clock and finish time together on one screen. Optional instructions remain visible below the timer, and the display turns red during the final five minutes.
How to run an exam timer
- Enter the assessment name and total working time.
- Add reading time if students must review the paper before writing.
- Type any instructions that need to stay visible.
- Start the timer and switch to full-screen on the classroom display.
- Use pause or add five minutes only when exam rules require it.
For everyday activities and station rotations, the simpler classroom countdown timer is a better fit.
