One prompt, one shot, no time to look it up.
Q & A puts students on the clock with a real-world prompt, one opportunity to respond, and instant AI feedback, recreating the pressure of being asked a question face to face.
"A patient on warfarin is prescribed a new antibiotic. What interaction concerns you, and what would you monitor?"
A student who can look something up isn't the same as a student who knows it.
Take-home questions can be answered with a search bar open in another tab. Q & A puts a real-world prompt in front of a student with a set amount of time and one opportunity to respond, closer to what happens when a patient, client, or interviewer asks a question on the spot.
Because scoring is instant and consistent, faculty get a genuine read on subject knowledge and composure under pressure, not just polish.
From prompt to timed response
A single flow that fits inside an existing course, no separate tool for students to learn.
Faculty write the prompts and set the clock
An instructor builds a set of real-world questions and defines how much time students get to respond to each one, along with the scoring rubric.
Student responds on camera, once
Each prompt appears with the timer running. The student answers in the moment, with normally just one opportunity per prompt, the same as being asked a question face to face.
AI scores against the rubric
Bongo evaluates accuracy, completeness, and composure under time pressure, and returns specific feedback in place of a generic grade.
Faculty review and confirm
Instructors can review any response, see how it was scored against the rubric, and adjust or confirm the result before it's final.
Fits into how your campus already works
Not a bolt-on tool. Q & A lives inside the systems faculty and students already use.
LMS integration
Works inside Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and other major systems, so assignments live where coursework already does.
Configurable time limits
Faculty set the response window per prompt, from a few seconds to several minutes, matched to what the question actually calls for.
Rubric-aligned scoring
Every response is measured against the same learning objectives, so results are consistent across sections and semesters.
Privacy and security
Independently audited controls and international data privacy compliance. Student data is never used to train AI models.
Common questions from faculty
What department chairs and instructors ask before rolling out Q & A.
How much time do students get per prompt?
Faculty set the response window for each prompt individually, from a few seconds to several minutes, depending on what the question calls for. Students see a visible countdown while they respond.
Can students retry a prompt if they mess up?
Q & A is built to replicate a real, high-stakes moment, so students normally get one opportunity per prompt. Faculty can configure additional attempts for lower-stakes practice sets if they'd rather build in retries.
How is a response graded?
Each response is scored against the rubric an instructor defines, covering content accuracy and how the student handled responding under time pressure. Faculty can review any response and adjust or confirm the AI's evaluation.
Can this be used for high-stakes assessments, not just practice?
Yes. Q & A supports both formative practice sets and high-stakes exams, with the same timed, single-attempt structure either way.
How does this integrate with our LMS?
Q & A works inside Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and other major learning management systems, so prompt sets appear alongside the rest of a course rather than in a separate tool.
Is student data used to train AI models?
No. Student and institutional data is never used to train AI models. Bongo maintains independently audited security controls and complies with international data privacy frameworks across all regions served.
