Simple solution:
I've heard of teachers who've given their students assignments to print out their weekly stat pages every Thursday.
The best way is still under construction. But at this stage we've got this:
The Earport is our classroom playground. Here teachers (Pilots) can create a group of users (a Crew) and have access to their stat pages.
The development of these features have been slow for years, but I might be spending some time on it in the months to come. Please contact me at beta@earplane.com if you're interested in beta-testing.

The repeat previous button will play the previous question, so that you can check it against the right answer. This button is a First Class User feature, which means it's only available for users who've supported the site with a small donation or a work contribution.
A Flight is a time limited session where members of a crew are at work together. Members do their stuff as usual, but in a Flight you can see the result of the whole crew.
A Flight has:
- a TakeOff when the Flight starts,
- a Duration that tells how long it lasts, and
- a Privacy Level that decides who will see what's going on when it comes to the individual member's points.
These levels of Privacy are:
- Public: All members can view each other's stats, Flight Score is visible in ranking lists.
- Private: All members can view each other's stats but Flight Score is only shown to member of the Crew.
- Stealth: Only the pilot can see the individual member points.

Pilots are hired by an Earline Company. If you're a student at a school with Earline Company status you can ask you teacher to get hired. Or you can donate a small sum to support the development of this site, which will give you First Class User Status. This automatically includes pilot status for one private Crew for you and your friends.
Crews are created by Earline Company Managers. These can also hire Pilots, who manage the crews.
