Sharing HTML quizzes and class projects as links

For teachers: put a quiz, a simulation or an AI-generated activity in front of a class with a link or a QR code on the board. For students: hand in a web project as a URL your teacher can open on any device.

Short answer

Paste the quiz or activity HTML into HTMLtoLink, give it a short address like y9-forces-quiz, and show the QR code on the board — students scan and start, on Chromebooks, iPads or phones. Only you sign in; students need no accounts. Students can submit their own web projects the same way and hand in the link.

For teachers

Getting a quiz or activity

Write one by hand, use a template, or ask an AI assistant: "Create a 10-question multiple-choice quiz on photosynthesis for 13-year-olds as one HTML file, with a score at the end and explanations for each answer." Paste the result into the HTML viewer to try it first.

Sharing it with a class

  1. Publish it with a readable address. Free links last 24 hours — enough for a lesson; a paid plan keeps a course's quizzes online all term.
  2. Project the QR code (or post the link in Google Classroom, Teams or your LMS).
  3. Fix a wrong answer mid-lesson with Update content — students who reload get the fix.

Collecting results

A static page cannot store answers on a server by itself. Simple options: show a final score students screenshot or type into your LMS; or have the quiz submit to a Google Form or a form service via a link with the score in it.

For students

  1. Make sure your project opens from index.html and all files are in one folder.
  2. Zip the folder and upload it. Use your name in the address, e.g. maya-chen-portfolio.
  3. Open the link on a phone to check it works, then hand in the URL.
  4. Free links last 24 hours, so hand it in promptly — or keep a copy of the ZIP so you can republish it if marking takes longer.

Classroom-friendly by design

  • No student accounts or email addresses needed.
  • Pages are noindex, so student work does not appear in search results.
  • Teachers can add a password to answer keys or assessment materials.
  • We do not track visitors to published pages.

Questions people ask

Is this suitable for schools?

Only the teacher (or student publishing) signs in, with Google; viewers need no account, and we add no tracking to published pages. Follow your school's own rules on what student work may be shared online, and avoid putting personal data in pages.

Can a quiz record students' answers?

Not on its own — HTMLtoLink serves static files. Show a score on screen, or send results to a form service your school already uses.

Will the link still work next term?

On the Free plan, links last 24 hours. On a paid plan they stay online for as long as you are subscribed.
